Thanks, this is what I’ve laid out per your instruction and it’s gonna be fine. I appreciate all the responses

Are these only useful for snow? I thought it was a dedicated snow plow attachment. I already have a front end loader on my kubota so I considered parting with one of these that I got in a power king tractor deal but maybe I should re consider?

It is a 74, gas and six speeds all the way from low to stupid low 😬 thanks

I bought another one yesterday, I may sell the first one cause I don’t need two. I prefer this one. I can’t find a sub section here for Power king tractors? I’d hate to go to another web site, people on here are two friendly and willing to help. Am I missing it? Pictures attached

My wife is 70 years old, she has trouble with one 100 fter

Purchased this last night for mowing chores. This thing is a beast, heavy gauge steel everywhere, Dana rear end, plenty of torque ( just wait till I install the secondary transmission) strong enough hydraulics My l2501 is garbage compared to how this thing was built. One wheel is flopping I...

It’s heavily wooded at this point Just trying to set things up and clear as little as possible

I’ll never buy anything but geared If I can’t fix it I don’t want it

You are right We will ultimately have to end up doing this somewhere I’m sure

Hundreds of feet at 17 dollars a 20 ft stick Yes, maybe perimeter wrong choice of words? Border if that is any better

I’ll get some graph paper if necessary Thanks

I want no area within the rectangle to not be covered by hose so yes overlapped as you mentioned

Maybe I didn’t explain it well enough? I’m probably wrong but Im thinking every 50 ft would give me a 100 percent overlap on a 180 degree semi circle.

This kind of thing was never my thing. I’ve cleared a piece of land enough to have the sized perimeter that I’ve shown. At what intervals around this known perimeters ( length and width ) would I need to place spigots so that a 100 ft hose will reach everywhere inside and not have any dead...

I know nothing about these. Looking for something like this for mowing. Am I looking in the wrong direction Dependability and ease of maintenance are most important to me. Preserving history and using vintage equipment is something I look for

This is my beautiful wife standing next to a beautiful tractor that has less than 150 hrs on it. It was sitting in the local kubota showroom. I thought maybe some of you guys had owned this model tractor might like seeing it. Too bad it doesn’t have the mower deck. Assuming it could have had one

I need to add a mower deck to my B6100 kubota. I’d also like to convert it to 4wd I’ll never get rid of that little tractor because it’s so useful but I’d like to step it up. I have been looking for a parts tractor for years and no luck. Any suggestions? I’d need to find a parts tractor that...

Believe it or not Walmart had the most oem looking seat pan with correct mounting brackets, unfortunately it is my experience that Walmart sells garbage and I’d be afraid that the metal was soda can thickness. I purchased the somewhat rusty one in need of minor repairs on eBay At least I know...

There is one on eBay in need of repairs for 130 Seems like still a lot of money for a seat in need of repairs

Yes, not going to pay the 445 either Thanks

I’ll need to replace mine, I didn’t realize that the foam was covering up so much rust down in the seat pan and so now it’s almost beyond a feasible repair. It’s been a great tractor and I’d like to find an original used seat in decent condition at a fair price if possible. Maybe someone here...

Thanks for that, great idea Thanks for the information

This was my plan but your picture really put it in perspective

I have a backhoe on my l series. The rear wheels rarely come up My B series has weighs and it makes a huge difference

Unfortunately my old B6100 slowly leaks down so it’s tough to maintain any height for very long. I’m pretty sure that the body that you see now was all made by previous owner and it appears he included skids on n the front to just be dragged along. The hog came with the tractor but the tractor...

I haven’t seen a vent, I’ll have to look again this morning Thanks

I have the two tractors so it a little less than 20 dollars I don’t know if it’s worth it, that’s why I posed the question

T4

I understand you get what you pay for typically but Walmart just recently had it for just under 14.00 gallon

Thanks

It’s hard to do it one handed but does the chain attach to the back of the tractor typically or to the three point? I don’t know what this is but it was in a bolt just flopping around

Thanks, so where does chain attach?

I’ve read that once synthetic oil is used there’s no turning back to a conventional? Any truth to this? I want to start running this in my B6100 and my L 2501 with the cost of Rotella synthetic oil getting so high

Surprisingly the box took very little gear oil and cuts like a champ considering all things. The B6100 is probably too small for it so I have to put it in turtle mode but I’m still at the learning curve. Can someone tell me what the chain may have been used for? Pictures won’t upload

I pulled the plugs on it and no detachable fluid so I’ll fill it up and see what happens Thanks

It came with a B6100 I bought years back I unhooked it and dropped it not thinking I’d have need for it

Good morning, is it normal that these blades be loose? I know nothing about this, I need one and it’s been sitting The bolt/ nut is tight, just sloppy from wear. Not stupid loose in my uneducated opinion but definitely wobbly. Someone has just abused this thing Thanks

No soup for you!

Wired it in this afternoon and everything works as should. Thanks again to everyone that commented

We purchased this property in 78 and had well put in same year. Never installed a tank, it’s for irrigation only and we’d control pump via breaker

Thanks for pointing this out, I probably would not have caught this otherwise

I have already traced the wires, should be good to go Thanks again for taking the time to answer my questions

Sorry for the confusion, I don’t know how that picture got on there I fixed the original post

Thank you, just to cross my tees, I’ll remove L1 and L2 ( labeled this way inside my relay box ) ( these are my two incoming feeds from breaker panel ) and place them on pump switch as shown in my diagram. Then I would re feed L1 and L2 from 2 and 3 from the pressure switch. Sound correct?

I know a lot of you guys are electrically minded. Could someone tell me how to make the connection from this pump relay switch to the pressure switch. ( Standard square D switch ) We have been running this pump full blast for more than 15 years on irrigation ( just using the breaker as an on/off...

I’m having problems/ noises coming from my still fairly new tractor. Before I pay the dealer 175.00 hour I’d like to know if someone has experienced the issue. Noise isn’t constant every time I move it, seems to not have any favorable condition over another. Only lasts for the few seconds it...

Just an update, I have appreciated all the replies. Long story short I have been derailed on something else but last Sunday it took myself and my wife less than 10 minutes to have the door sitting on it’s perch. It made things tough because of the offset in relation to door opening to the chain...

Thanks for the suggestions, I’m still missing approximately 6 ft using the tractor I’m guessing the doors weigh no more than 300 pds each I’ve got this put together and worst case scenario is that I have a pretty good lifting point in my shop now for future projects. I’ll update failure or success

I want to take a rope, have it tied around both ends ( must be on the curtain ) ( white part ) that would allow it to still budge ( if possible) and then both ends meet in the middle so that I can attach it to my chain fall and get it up to it’s mounting brackets I’ve installed. Is this...

I had read this but had not taken the time to look. Sure enough Thanks for the reminder Can you tell me why?

Good morning, I can’t seem to find anyone that can give me a clear answer. The video below is as close as I have come. The question is: if the neutral ( in most cases white ) is connected to the same bus bar as the grounds and the neutral is what carries the electricity back to the source (...

Complete waste of my time, might try it on a second battery but at this point I have better things to do.

I understand

Charger

I’m trying it now, turns out I had a charger with the 200 amp setting. Buried and didn’t know I had it. The battery I’m trying it in was seemingly dry when I took the caps off. I filled it to just below the proper level and hooked up charger. The water immediately started bubbling and coming out...

My Kubota’s only a couple/few years old and already a dead battery, by chance my ranger battery is on it’s last leg, my riding lawnmower battery is kaput and I have a stack of other dead batteries. This guy claims that this charger will fix any and all dead and depleted batteries and he has...

Ok, 500 a piece Thanks very much

Can anyone here tell me approx how many gallons of water these might hold? Dimensions are approx 36x116 long. I was told they were 1000 gallons a piece but I don’t see that. Thanks for taking the time to educate yourselves

Yes, I definitely do this

Should I be concerned with running over my drain field with my L2501 FEL backhoe assy? New construction home I’m building, corrugated half round plastic drain field maybe 2ft in diam. I installed myself while the experts watched me clean up their installation. I’m assuming that the old story of...

That’s pretty neat, after doing a little research I’ve decided to just rent a trencher. It’s 200 a day and I wouldn’t be tearing up my tractor

I have all sand, no rocks. I am considering using the forks on my pallet fork, maybe a little at a time.

Can someone tell me the narrowest bucket attachment available for my bh77 backhoe and where to find other than paying dealer costs? I’m in need of a trenching bucket but I’ve read they load up easy so your off the tractor more than on Thank you

Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions

Not to change the subject but this is the image I saw earlier Again I DO Not visit any dirty sites, I have no interest in that

I’m wondering why I am seeing pornographic images within this page? The second I went to make a screenshot it disappeared? There is no one that looks at garbage like this in my home

How much consideration should I give placement/height of these 350 gallon totes around my property for gravity fed irrigation with a watering wand? I understand I’ll need to get them elevated but is there a tremendous difference in volume/ pressure of water if they were 6 feet off the ground...

I’m looking for some ideas. These walls are 12 ft high, I need to go up another 6ish feet to reach my gable ends ( soffit and gable cladding work ) It’s easy enough to get that extra 6 feet rigging up an extension under the bucket but on S side there is a breezeway that is in the way. I know...

Ok, thanks guys

Is an aftermarket version going to be the same as Kubota’s? Napas even more expensive than dealer and he tells me there is an inner and outer? My research tells me there is only an outer Does anyone have an OE part number for the outer? Thanks Any opinions welcome

Good morning. We are considering an FRC 800, maybe your not at all familiar with this model but I haven’t found anything negative at all online. Going to look at it tomm, guy wants 1500 for it, a lot of money. Appears to be a 2002 ( approx ) model judging by an emissions sticker. What can you...

I have an old Kubota B6100 that I’d like to add a tiller to. Sandy soil, no rocks, I’d like to turn loads of manure into the sand. Any recommendations I’ve seen astronomical pricing and I’m hoping that I’m just seeing larger tillers than what I’m needing. These areas are fairly small garden...

We drove to Georgia yesterday and picked up a bundle of doors from a 1930s schoolhouse, they are similar to what I grew up with in our home. I will make the locks work again but not sure where to start? A lot of skeleton keys and some more moderns. Any suggestions? Thanks for that Also I’m on...

Recently a vehicle crossed the median, drove through 2 of my fences ( one inside the other ) flattened a picnic table and knocked over some trees. He was evidently not the at fault driver, ( even though he had to have his vehicle towed off our property) At fault fled the scene. Southern auto...

Thanks to everyone here, the unloader valve was frozen open, I unstuck it and it operates flawlessly now. I will get a new valve cause I noticed that it could potentially get cocked a little sideways and get stuck again. I will not run the compressor any longer without an 8 gauge power cord...

Thank you to everyone that helped me with this compressor. I pulled out the unloader valve, found it stuck, made the repair and now the compressor works flawlessly every time. I’m going after a heavier duty cord tomm. I hope because I don’t want the compressor sitting outside in the sand, I...

Is it safe to assume that this assy is the unloader valve assy? I’ll have to see if it can be purchased separately from the switch if so.

Ok so I need an unloader valve. Thank you I may post another pict or two for clarification

This roll air compressor runs as quiet as a church mouse when initially started but refuses to start back up as it should once the start up switch detects that the pressure has dropped sufficiently. When it’s running I can hear air leaking, discovered air leaking back out the air intake tube...

Come to think of it I’ve got the shop windows to do so I won’t be done this week but I’ll get it

Thanks for all the replies, I have not done it yet but I have climbed up there numerous times and unsteadily using a rope to pull on attached to tractor on other side of building. The underlayment on there is good for many months. For unrelated reasons I’ve decided to install my windows and...

Post 16 identifies a probable problem that needs correction

When it shuts down it blows air back out the intake tube. Hard to even cover it shut with my thumb. Soon as air stops leaking out intake tube I can plug it back in and it starts fine

Thanks, will post better pics in a bit I do think this may be the issue Not to dismiss any other theories but it gives me the impression of being hydro locked so unloaded valve is a good start, I’d also agree that the 100 ft cord and amperage drop isn’t helping, I did run my small camper with...

I’ll have to post more pictures I guess, check valve could be in several places.

There is something leaking, don’t know where the leak is or if there are multiple. I put my ear to the compressor this morning and it sounds internally ( in the compressor itself) Is the check valve located internally? Maybe I’m just not distinguishing where the noise is coming from. Can you...

I picked up a couple of compressors, one is electric the other gas. The electric starts up fine from my temporary power source a hundred feet away with a 100 ft 15 amp extension cord but as soon as it needs to automatically re start itself cause the air pressure drops it will not start, it just...

I’m also building an 8 ft scaffold that will attach to the forks on my tractor, it will allow me to do the soffit installation which has been quoted at 7000 ( hardi board materials already on site for roughly 600 dollars ) I will also be able to do my gable ends on the garage ( do not have any...

Might be so I climbed the roof today using hand over method, did it 3 times, sat for a few at the peak, tried it with the vest on once using the clincher that comes as part of the kit and it didn’t work for me as in I was very uncomfortable I ordered these items this morning, I’ve since learned...

One metal sheet, I have ideas for that, if you can think of the name I’d appreciate it, can’t imagine at this point what you would be referring to. Thanks Ok roof jacks I thought about them, thanks again

About 10 thousand dollars plus to install the metal roof on the garage, there is no doubt in my mind that I can do the work myself but I am scared to get up there because of the 8.12 pitch. I’ve tried, can get my foot off the ladder but even with the safety rope I can’t seem to get the nerve...

Thank you for the help

Good morning, I recently picked this up with the intention of a back up mower. Came to find out it has at least carb issues I.E trouble starting, idling and powering up the mower I ordered a parts book thinking I would possibly get a usable part number for a carburetor but the book seems to have...

Thanks, I’m gonna pass based on the lack of enthusiasm from the overall majority. Going to look at a 67 Allis Chalmers B-110 today, if it runs and cuts I’m all over it and will bring it home just because I feel it’s a no brainer

I have a chance to buy one for 750 Need a dependable mower that’s turn key yesterday and the price on this one is 750 It’s had the green painted half ass but not a bad looking tractor with any rust issues that I can see Guy claims it’s single cylinder Koehler engine is sought after by collectors...

I'm not looking for dednutz accuracy I understand that you have to account for Windows and Doors I'm just looking for a rough estimate

I know there's online calculators but they confuse me. Plus I'm out in the middle of the woods and the Sun is overhead and I can barely see the screen of this phone. Can anyone here tell me how many standard cinder blocks it would require to build a 30 by 40 building with 8 ft walls?

Come to find out according to the county the cloth is not mandatory nor needed. It would have passed inspection whether it was there or not. Evidently the slits are facing in a way that sand supposedly will not fill the infiltrator. I am anxious to examine these more closely this weekend when I...

What is going to keep the loose sugar sand from going inside the infiltrators and clogging any drainoff as it leaves the tank and flows down the infiltrators? There are holes in the sides. I guess Im not seeing how laying hollow half round plastic tubing in the sand is going to...

They brought out a 50 hp tractor to fill or cover up the drainfield, a tractor would have destroyed the field by running back and forth over it, they should have brought a mini ex or something similar with a long reach bucket to fill it in. They simply do not care and assume I am ignorant...

Ive said it before and Ill say it again as a warning, you have to watch everyone cause they will always do whats best for them and disregard your interests.

New system that has finally passed inspection, during cover up I noticed the sand making holes in the drainfield fabric. Large holes as in tears. Why would this happen? Cheap fabric? I told them to stop. They claim fabric isnt even a county requirement. I do not believe that and am going to...

larger?

I had my septic done this past Fri and I thought some of you guys might like to see pictures. Only a few hours work for these guys and Im glad that I paid someone to do it Has to be inspected this week and covered up.

Yes, same idea but no holes in or around the spokes or hub

Inflation, sign of the end times. Repent while you still can and no Im not joking and yes this is concerning religion. Have a great day!

My T1460 has a wheel that needs removing, the cap on the wheel is not watertight and there was alot of water and rust in there. Ive got the nut off and have tried puller but because of the tolerance between the underside of the wheel and the plastic instrument cluster shroud I am limited on what...

Chainsaw as an example. Not often any more and usually long enough to get rid of a fallen tree

So maybe the best option would be to start it and let it run a while every year or so and change out the fuel that has an additive in it every couple of years.

I have some tools I might pick up to use for a few hours one day and then not touch it again for several years, Im guessing running it dry is really the only option other than hoping for the best.

Im tired of having problems with small engine carbs and I plan to do something about it. In my area finding ethanol free gas isnt easy and from what I have read dosent necessarily solve the problem. I know that running the fuel tank empty at the end of the season isnt the answer either...

Thanks, Ive already ordered a new seat and rear tires, needs a belt and a couple of small items plus a good tune-up/fluid change.

It needs a seat, a belt and some maintenance but I am happy to have it. Will be a big help on my property cause slowly the sand is becoming devoured by grass

Ill have to check it out again next weekend. I did not have any issues with shifting this weekend. I only use it to pull a water tote around the property. Thanks everyone

Everything seems fine with my truck so who knows I guess where it came from

I'm headed out there now to where the truck is so I'll check it out I didn't even consider that it was actually something that was part of the truck

Pickup

Seems like Ive seen something like this before, I believe it is only a small part to a much larger machine. It fell onto the floorboard from Im assuming the underneath of the dashboard of my Ranger last weekend. It is quite heavy for its size, I believe it to be quality steel because of its...

If its built like the one above youll prob never have to buy another finish mower. Good luck with it

This is a well built mower I recently purchased that I plan to put to use after cleaning up. Can anyone here provide any information about the mower, nothing online worth speaking of and although Ive been in contact with the manufacturer they haven't proven to be of much use. Also can anyone...

This was a fun project and I appreciate all the kind words given throughout this thread.

These are in a desert, Candler sand. Im hoping once established they will require alot less maintenance. Some of my other trees are fairly newly planted and larger which require 6 months to 1 year for root establishment.

No

This a a 5 acre lot that I drive around. Trees are at the perimeter of this lot

I have no way of elevating a 275 gallon plastic tote to get any decent pressure. To use a smaller container with my FEL elevated would mean numerous trips to the well to replenish. More time is something I dont want to give

I have a little over 300 small trees, It takes an approx count of 6 1000 to dump 1 gallon of water on a single tree under the pressurized system I use now, I do this for every tree, I need pressure to get this amount of water in a realistic time frame. I spend already a little over 9 hrs every...

Seems like I need to learn a little bit about inverters, I know nothing about them but I think this might be the way to go along with the 120V 10 amp pump I have been using. Thanks

Thanks, Ive read that these types of pumps are continuous flow though, Ive read that turning them on and off via a nozzle will burn them up in short order.

I have been hand watering about 300 trees on my property using my generator, a small 120V 10 amp pump and a 275 gallon IBC tote. I pull these around using my trailer and Ranger. Im gonna burn up my generator, it takes a few hours to accomplish this and Im looking for an alternative. I...

I saw this one sitting outside and I liked the shape, I bet it was a good looking tractor when new, not like the plastic aesthetically unappealing many of us have today. I havent seen many really good looking tractors since I havent been interested for very long but someone made something in...

My water table has dropped approx 20 feet since the last time I measured ( 3-4 weeks ago ) Does anyone here have any real world knowledge of having this happen and can possibly explain that? I was told by the original drillers that a water table typically only drops a few inches at the most...

I know alot of you guys have spent your lives growing things. I have 211 Holly trees that Ive planted in the ground on my property in Dunnellon. They will supposedly reach 25-30 feet height someday. At this point the tallest tree is approx 1 foot tall. Supposedly under the right conditions they...

Some of you may have read that I recently had a well put in, long story short they gave up on the first hole after breaking their bit and some extensions off ( still at bottom of well ) Ive measured and the casing is approx 128 feet with about 40 feet of water in it. I hate to just fill in...

Now that my land clearing is pretty much done Id like to clean up my tractor, its shy of 200 hundred hours but because water was like gold on my property I wasnt able to keep it as clean as I would have liked. I did powerwash it a few times with a small greenworks ( lowes cheap ) washer and...

158 feet of casing and crystal clear water which is uncommon for my area. Driller thinks I tapped into a spring. Now I have to deal with the contract I signed authorizing them to use galvanized pipe. Didn't know at the time that poly pipe was really a better option. They haven't installed...

I have a little older Kubota that I havent used in months just sitting inside my container, I have zero idea of getting rid of it, thought worst case scenario ( best case scenario ) is one day Id like to bring it too a show and show it off, what should I do for storage until that time comes...

I am needing a set to use intermittently at this point. I dont want to buy the cheapest unit I can on E-bay but not sure I need to spend several hundred either. What have you guys had luck with? I need to move a large compressor and a very heavy toolbox at this point from one shipping...

I had a unit set up for last weekend with driver/operator. That fell thru. I am considering renting a D-5 with 6 way blade and doing the work myself. Am I asking/expecting too much from myself like I had done with the wheel loader or is a bulldozer almost a no brainer cause its a tracked...

First Part : Lets say you have 2 bricks of equal weight but made up of different materials. Lets say one of these bricks is much much larger than the other ( but remember the same weight ) Lets say you throw both bricks using the identical amount of force in the throwin. Will the larger...

Can someone tell me what the formula is for site preparation/ drainage away from house pad. In other words how much of a slope should exist 50 or 100 feet away from home? Nothing but loamy sand that drains well but im assuming at any distance from home there should be a drop in elevation and...

Been meaning to ask this but why does it seem my Kubota L2501 loses forward mementum when I am working the hydraulics? Its a manual trans. In other words if Im moving in any gear and I use any hydraulic function on the tractor the machine seems to lose just a bit of power

Im maybe jumping the gun here by asking questions but trying to prepare. Looks like I've bought the tractor seen. Ive bought it sight unseen. I am buying it from a friend of the guy that helped me on my property this weekend. I trust him and his judgement. If it turns out I get burned than its...

Seems like we have some plant experts on this forum and Im glad. I dont typically have a problem with growing plants but I know zero about technicalities and have so much going on with my land project Im hoping to get some dummied down info for this plant dummy. Ive ordered these 5-Nellie R...

L2501 less than year old. One of the hoses that feeds backhoe starting pissing fluid. Rubber part no where near couplers. No obvious reason If it is covered I'm hoping I can just show them hose. Easy to remove.

I have a large loader being dropped off on my property Wednesday, I have alot of material to move around. After thats done I'll need to get things as smooth as possible without all the whoopdeedoos. Any tips to do this would be appreciated

This may make it easier for you guys. In my opinion the manuals stink

This is gonna be a long thread but in a nutshell what is the dummied down way to figure out if I have x amount of feet to play with how much slope I can expect to have and how much slope is too much slope that a heavy rain will wash it downhill over time? I E I need to know at what point I...

East central florida. Very sandy soil. Ive not seen another that I can recollect. Im looking for a privacy fence that grows very quickly and requires little maintenance. Some sort of dwarf that maybe maxes out at 8 feet and stays full all the way to base. I understand that this prob. Isnt it...

I changed the filter and fluid on my tractor, put in the amount the dealer told me my tractor would take and yet I see nothing on the tiny sight glass, experience has told me this means either it is overfilled or there isnt enough. Experience has also shown me that trying to add to it alone (...

Went to a large show today and picked up some stuff that I couldnt walk away from. First the wheel balancer, I have been looking for a few years but could never find one that I thought was a good deal. I paid 30 dollars for this one and although I know virtually nothing about them I dont think...

Ive seen in the past a metal spring deal with two eyelets on the ends for securing things that required a lot of stretching. My grapple hoses are dragging/just getting in the way, I'm afraid tbey are gonna catch something. Can someone tell me the name for that springy thing that might work.

I was given an IBC Tote that used to store acrylic paint. I've emptied the paint and rinse out the tote the best I could. Someone suggested pouring a couple of boxes of borax into the Container filling it up with water and letting it sit which I did for more than a month. Loose paint remnants...
