Hello all, I wanted to see who out there has put one of these on their tractors. I just bought one, the “ATI” brand and am reasonably happy with it. I say reasonably because I wasn’t able to really do much comparison with other brands. Maybe owners of older tractors like me are few in...

Hoping I can get some advice... I have a Kubota L4310 tractor. (43hp/36pto). I’ve been looking for a rotary cutter that is on the heavier duty side to use on brush. I found a Land Pride RCF2084 (7ft dual tail wheel) model. Specs show it’s rated for 45-90hp machines, handles 2” material. I’m just...

Wondering if anyone here has experience with a problem like this? I have a Kubota L4310. I was using it last week moving some dirt and gravel with the loader and switching between low and medium range here and there. All of the sudden when I went to switch back from low to medium or high as I...

I think I just paid through the nose for a couple of replacement headlight bulbs at my local dealer. $36 and change for 2 bulbs. I had no luck finding replacements at the auto-parts stores and similar. Does anyone know what a compatible alternative for this bulb would be? It's just hard to...

I use one in my skid steer, tractor and on my mower. I think it’s a good safety precaution to keep it handy in case of an emergency or the wife and kids needing to reach me in an emergency when I’m out on the ‘back 40’... Here’s a pic that shows it mounted to the inside pillar of my skid steer.

I recently bought a used L4310. I noticed there was a missing 15amp fuse labeled “KEY STOP”. The tractor seems fine with or without it. The difference is that WITH the fuse, I hear an audible click whenever I cycle the key. Can anyone explain what this is for? I tried searching and found...

Hello all, When I bought this tractor it had wheel weights installed in the 24” rims. I’d like to know how much each one weighs and know the brand so I can add a little more weight. Does anyone recognize what these are? Thanks!

Hello All, I'm looking to buy a box blade from my 40+ hp tractor. Initially I've looked at the Land Pride and Everything Attachment (EA) blades... The sales guy at the Kubota dealership shot me a price on the Land Pride BB12 series blade which according to the specs is designed for 17-30hp...

I had a new set of R4's installed on my tractor yesterday... I checked the pressure after the guy left and the fronts were around 75psi and the rears were around 20psi. I adjusted the fronts to 65, the max psi listed on the sidewall was 75. I adjusted the rears to 12psi. I was thinking that...

Carlisle AT101’s are in my opinion, the best traction tire for a zero turn machine. They offer great traction compared to the turf tires and don’t tear up the yard. I have mowed very steep and off camber terrain for many years... Tires Example of hills

I mow about 6 1/2 acres that is very hilly, off-camber, steep and challenging. I started out with a 445, then an X495 for several years and even a 2305. The X495 was definitely the best mower of those three. However a couple of years back I decided to try a Zero Turn rider to try and reduce...

Hello all, Another question. Until I’m able to find manuals I’m looking for some help. On this tractor, the rear end show signs of some leaking and the site glass appears to be too clouded to see anything inside. This is the HST model, so I assume that this is Hydraulic oil. Can anyone...

Hi everyone, I just bought a L4310 to replace much smaller JD 2305. I would like to go through it, change the fluids and filters before doing any work with it. One thing I noticed is that the loader hydraulic lines don’t have quick disconnects. So to remove the loader it seems a bit odd to...

I just used this a few days ago to bush hog and grade my driveway and everything was working fine. This morning... Following a cold spell over the past few days... (temp's in the teens over night), I started it up this morning and attempted to raise the rear blade and it's unresponsive. I hear...

I have a 445 with the original suspension seat that is starting to crack and split. I was at my local JD dealer the other day and was admiring the new seat on a brand new x739. The seat is bigger, more comfortable and the material used is more 'leather-like'. It not only appears a lot nicer...
