Re: Up sized Hydraulic Cylinders for Loaders, Back together Well, The L39 is finally back together. Loader bucket and QA is all bolted up and painted nice orange. Maybe I should change the decal on the Loader to TL1300 now, as it actually will lift 1300 Kg. In my case the 1300 Kg rating is...

Well after 11 years of hard use I can accept that a few breakdowns are going to happen. The swing circuit on by Backhoe is almost totally failed. No Oil leaks and the cylinders themselves seem okay. There is a hissing rattle sound coming from the control valve. The swing struggles to...

I herniated a disc in my back in October 2015. My back is not capable of taking abuse any more. I look at the thousands of tons of rocks moved and made retaining walls, The Thousands of yards of material landscaped into pastures, roads and ponds, I can't do that now. I've lost my knack with...

Re: Weak Loader Curl Solution For the Max28 One thing I've noticed In the +2 hours I've put on the Max28 since the 40mm Curl cylinders were added is the Regen circuit on the dump sure does fight itself more with the ratio of the extend to retract areas changed. To avoid loading up the pump, I...

After I finished my Loader Cylinder upsizing I did the complete 100 Hour Service on my Max28. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/mahindra-owning-operating/353387-weak-loader-curl-possible-solution.html I hope other than grease and fuel, I do not have any maintenance for a year or so. I used a...

Something has to have be lost in translation, as the Specs on these new tractors for the S1.25 do not add up. First off the entire product range seems really rugged and well constructed. I hope the S1.35 thru S1.55 get some serious attention. I like the S1.25 but why did they go with a 6 X 2...

Round and round I go but this is turning out to be relatively easy for my idea Max28 cylinder upgrade, as apposed to what I'm faced with the Kubota L39 The 1526L Loader on the new 1526 does the day While it has just a bit more lift capability than the Max28, it comes with 40 mm bucket...

Attached are the spec sheets for the L45 and both the Original L39 Tier 3 and the Teir4 Interim later model that went out of production in 2014 I believe. Note that the Bucket Breakout force at the Pivot pin is for the Tier 4 model is 4605 lbs while on the older model the breakout force is 3560...

I'm looking a my options to obtain exact fit interchangeable up sized hydraulic cylinders for my tractor's loaders. These will have to be custom built due to port location, that they are metric sized, and have non standard weird piston stroke and retracted lengths, as well as having metric pin...

There is a possible solution for the weak curl of the Loader. First off, the 1400Lb Lift at the pins just is not honest. The Loader manual states that the 1402 Lbs lift at the pins is developed at 2175 PSI System Pressure, 100 PSI more than what the relief valve is actually set at. I read that...

Hi Anyone ever experience an RTV900 power steering just quit? No oil puddles, Hydraulic pump still works, steering wheel just goes around in circles, no stops. I can barely turn front wheels by hand, Right front wheel has a lot of play by hand turning right to left, etc, left side not so...

Not even cold , just a brisk 13F I get home early and figure I'll clean up the 2"-3" of snow that has packed down on our road and area around the barn using the max 28 and 6' box blade rather than the Bota with plow. Max was stared last week...

This is the first time I used my BB2572 box scaper on one of my own tractors. Over 8 years ago my former neigbor "borrowed" my new BB. I always did my BB work using his Kubota L3400 (with Loaded Rears). The Kubota kind of struggled doing any serious work with the BB, but was fine in light...

If the answer is yes, consider the Mahindra Max26/28. I am very impressed how much of a hitch is on this small machine. I find the small tractor size really helps getting into buildings an working in tight quarters. The Max will handle bigger implements than its size suggests. For instance...

I did a quick search, and came up with not much, so excuse me for asking again. What aftermarket Filters fit the Max28/26? I'm coming up on the first service. Thank you.

Anyone ever change the Hydraulic hose from the pump block to BT100 Back hoe. My leak id a fairly large and seeems to originate just in fromt of the rear tire from the hose that behind the inner fender but outside the sub frame. Very hard to see.

More Red in the neighborhood. Now I have the tiny red one. Farmer down the road had his new 5010 Gear Cab ML156 and 595 loader parked in his driveway, so I stopped by Dan's to check it out. His cousin, 3 houses down bought a 410 open station about a mouth ago and put it to work in the...

I must have poor muscle memory. For instance every year I have to practically relearn how to ski. I'm embarrassed at my lack of skill I show when getting back on equipment I have not used all winter. (i.e., my excavator). After a little seat time I could hand you a beer with my old excavator...

Glad I'm not shopping! See Attached.

My 2013 Max28 XL shuttle has less than 4 hours on it. I bought it as a new leftover in NY State. (Tier 3!) I have not worked the machine other than play move some snow, but immediately noticed the loader seemed especially weak. The machine has no ballast, in fact the front guard is removed...

As I picked up the our Max28 shuttle just before Christmas, I have less than 1 hour on it, maybe 3 hours total on the machine. Other than taking a wack at a snow pile I have no idea how well the loader works. It did not seem that strong. As I have an PC77UU2 excavator and the Kubota L39, I...

Anticipating what is in store for this little tractor, I took some preemptive action to avoid completely destroying the bucket.

I have spent a lot of hours on tractor seats/ heavy equipment, so I do my research when I buy, a new/replacement machine. Tractor purchase is something I do not do often; thank God for that, as I can not afford it. After doing my research, and buying the best fit for my need, I thought I share...

I designed a combination weight box, with 2 receiver and provisions for a workbench / tool carrier specifically to fit my newest tractor, a little Mahindra Max 28XL. I think the design is slick. There are lots of places to buy tow bars, tool carries, and weight boxes for Ag tractors, but I...

I realized I have not taken any pictures of my logging road. I've been just too busy scrambling to get firewood for the winter. my poor old excavator needs a little TLC once I walk in out of the wood, before winter. Major work this year was: AFTER THE SNOW MELTED Add risers to septic tank...

If you are in a bind having to remove a pressed in bearing or bushing by pulling from the I.D. Sizes 11/16 ro 1-5/8, then this little tool is well worth it. I looked all over and what I found either looked like junk mush metal, or was SNAP-ON tool like expensive. I was impressed with the...

I have a bit more than 1,000 Lbs. additional iron on my L39, in the form of custom wheel weights and some addition reinforcements to frame and bucket, a mechanical thumb , etc. I was still surprised that the BH could lift and hold out full extension a 30" ID x 36" OD x 34" tall Well Tile with...

With so many aftermarket filters physically interchageable with the OEM Kubota filters and even Kubota has sereral filters that fit, I thought it best to stick with the OEM recommended filters. Gald i did, my oil is 1400 hours old and this is the third oil filter change after 1800 hours.. I'll...

You might think I use my poor L39 hard or something, as the front axle left side has developed a leak at the seal at the vertical spinle pivot at about 650 hours. Can anyone tell me what is involved in the fix to replace the seal. I wonder what caused the seal to go bad on just that side...

Even with the L39 ballasted to 8200 Lbs, it was tippy with this pepple. I have my hydraulic turned up just a bit, and if it were not for the extra weight, I would not carry such a rock. The L39 barely lifted this rock. I'm guessing 2,500 Lbs. It is about 7 feet across, 42 in wide at the...

I bet Kubota did not like it!

After only 4 hours of work the excavator sprung a hydraulic leak, so it was back to working the L39 hard. The excavator feeding the L39 operated by my wife should get some material moved once it’s fixed. PS That's a 2100 - 2500 lb Rock in the bucket. Granite weighs 160 LBS Cu-Ft. I am...

3 weeks ago I changed the oil and it's due again on the L39. 50 hours come too quick. I'm not running the l39 through a dusty field at max rpm full load so what does everyone think about 75 or 100 hour oil changes? My excavator service interval is 200 hours. What is the difference in a...

700 Lbs on rear wheels, and another 400 Lbs added elsewhere sure do make moving heavy loads safer. From the pictures, even with the weights, the rears look like they do not have a lot of load on them. The L39 without weights will lift a tire off the ground if you lift anything off center...

I like my L-39 TLB too much to destroy it doing the heavy work that needs to be done on our 17 Acres, so I have just high bid on an excavator on E-Bay. I did this carefully, as I did not meet the reserve, know what the seller will actually sell the machine for, and have spoken to the seller...

The first time I plowed, without my wheel weights, the L-39 did fine with the R4's. It was a cold day and the snow was dry and crunchy. I plowed again today, with the extra 530 lbs added but plowing soft wet snow. The R4's were like a hockey puck on ice. My front drive 96 beater Buick had...

Another 530 lbs total brings weight up to 7,800 lbs with bucket, and 8000Lbs with grapple, not counting operator. The BH-1000 is still strong enough to lift all 4 wheels off ground and the stabilizers still lift the machine. The L-39 looks so much more stable at only 1.75" wider. Chains will...
