    Super UDT vs. UDT

    This forum seems to provide the best information so I appeal to all of you once again: Is there an advantage to using Super UDT fluid over the less costly UDT. I can't seem to get a definitive answer from two seperate dealers in my area. I did a search on Kabota's website and they...

    Did I do any damage?

    Well, I did something stupid today. Obviously I'm still new to tractors but after using my L3130 for a couple of hours today, I set the parking brake while I got off to clean it. Then I got back on and drove it out to the building without releasing the brake(s). I probably drove it about 200...

    Oil & Fuel  Fuel conditioning.

    Can anyone tell me what precautions I should take with the fuel in my L3130 for the winter. Just got it this season and have not run a full tank through it yet. Do I need to put a conditioner of some type in it. I usually use a fuel stabilizer in my other engines that sit for extended...

    A (silly) question about PTO on L3130.

    This may seem like a silly question, but here goes: On my L3130 HST, should I be pushing in the clutch pedal before engaging the PTO? My manual refers to the PTO lever as a PTO clutch but does not mention using the clutch peddle in concert with it. Excuse my inexperience.

    Chose the 3130

    After much research (mostly on this site), I chose the L3130 over the B7800. Dealer just delivered it today and I'm absolutely thrilled! My thanks to all of you who responded to my posts and others whose insite and experience helped me make what I think is a very sound decision.

    Confused about power

    Can anyone explain why there seems to be so much concern about the power to weight ratio (32.1 hp / 3305 lbs.) with the L3130? The Kioti CK30 has a nearly identical ratio (30 hp / 3055 lbs.) and people seem to rave about its power. I'm getting ready to buy a new 3130 but this is a bit confusing.

    Kubota UDT vs. Super UDT

    Do any of you know if Kubota tractors come from the factory with UDT or Super UDT oil ?

    B7800 or L3130

    Well, I've been studying this site since about April and thought I had made a decision. I went in to my local Kubota dealer today prepared to make a deal on a new B7800. Dealer suggested the 3130 was a lot more tractor for just a little more money. I think so too, so I'm seeking the opinions...

    72" MMM for L3430HST

    72\" MMM for L3430HST It seems to me that I've read somewhere in this forum that the 72"MMM for the Kubota L3430HST is not compatible with R4 industrial tires. Apparently, they rub against the deck while turning. Does anyone know this to be true? I'd appreciate any deails on the subject. Thanks.
