I own a Kubota GR2100 garden tractor that I've owned for about 5 years. Lately I've been having to spend about $400 in repairs every 6 months or so. I thought Kubota was a very reliable brand that needed little repair and I certainly spent a lot of money on this machine. What kind of repair...

I wonder if anyone else has had this problem. After I've been mowing for several hours, without any warning, the motor revolutions start going down slowly until the motor totally stops. Electrically, the Toolcat is still turned on, with indicator lights on and the aux hydraulics light still...

Does anybody know of an after market product that would block the side discharge on the mower deck of the Kubota GR2100? I used the mulching kit for a long time so didn't realize what a pain it is to have the side discharge throwing clippings where I didn't want them. I know that I could just...

Sorry, posted to wrong section.

What do you all think about whether something like this would work on the Toolcat and how well? Easy Dig Mini Backhoe I remember there's been some question about using a hydraulic unit but wondered if this was low tech enough to work. I know that you're not going to be tearing out any tree...

Could someone post a photo of the Hose Guide Kit option installed on the Toolcat? I ordered that option but I haven't seen it before. I'd like some confirmation that it was installed correctly.

I have a soil conditioner that I want to use to do some leveling and it seems to me that it would work best when being pulled so that the tires are riding over the soil that's already been leveled. Normally that would require running the Toolcat in reverse with the conditioner mounted on the...

I had a chance to try out the 5610 I'm buying at the dealership and I have a couple of questions about how it runs. This unit is not new. It was a demo that they used at shows and training around the country. It's a year old and has about 150 hours. When I started driving it from where it...

Does anybody have the Pat's Easy Change on the 3-PT hitch for the 5610? I prefer this quick change over others because the top link is independent so no conflict if the height of the top link varies in the attachments. But since the 3-pt hitch on the 5610 isn't as strong as a regular...

At the maximum extension, how long is top link on your 3-pt hitch? I want to install a hydraulic link that's long enough to work with the Pat's Easy Change which adds about 4 inches to the lower links. I figure that the top link that comes with the 5610 is the proper length for the lower...

The attachment control kit that comes with the 5610 is a 7-pin connector but the soil conditioner that I have has a 14-pin connector. Is there a way around this?

Well, I've settled on what I will get quoted for the 5610. You can see the reason for my sticker shock. We'll see what the dealer can do. Not a lot of choices left after you have to pick the deluxe version, but here they are: 5610 Utility - $50,964 Deluxe Version Includes: Cab with A/C and...

How feasible would it be to install a hydraulic upper link on the 3-pt hitch and have a control for it both in the cab and also at the hitch outside? I'm thinking that it's awfully convenient to be able the adjust the length with the hydraulics while you're attaching an implement. With a...

I'm working through the options on the 5610. It looks like you still have to order the Deluxe version, which includes as part of the Deluxe Road Package a "lower engine guard". Is this the same as the "Lower Debris Guard" option or the "Lower Engine Cover" option? The words don't quite match...

I'm thinking about getting a 5610 but I just found out that the Ocala dealer, where I bought my 5600, no longer has a contract with Bobcat to sell the Toolcat. I may have to go to Orlando which is twice as far away, two hours instead of one. The Ocala dealer was telling me that if they had one...

What do you all think about the Bobcat Offer going on until August 31? 0% financing for 42 months, plus $1,000 rebate or $1,000 rebate plus free attachment up $3,500 list price or $2,500 rebate The second choice is what interests me. I could get the 90 inch mower I've been wanting at...

I just bought a used Bobcat SP5 spreader for a pretty good price and then subsequently found out from looking at the Bobcat Spreader Spec that Bobcat doesn't list the Toolcat for the SP5 but rather the HS8, which I hadn't even heard of before. The last time I looked, I thought that there were...

Has anyone used something like the Lankender Boomer Hydra-Swing on their Toolcat? I have a friend that is interested in getting a Toolcat put he needs to do some ditch cleaning and maintenance and was wondering if something like this would work rather than also having a dedicated backhoe. In...

I'd like to get some input on this. I'm wondering if I actually need the PTO on the 5610. The thing I like most about the Toolcat is having the work in front of me and not having to look back all the time. But there are some tasks that just work better being pulled rather than pushed. I want...

I need a Harley-type power rake, but can't justify the $8k+ price, so I've been looking at the Power Trac Power Rake found in about the middle of this page. Is anybody using this implement? And if so, what has been your experience with it? My understanding is that Power Trac sells everything...

Is anyone out there using the Power-Trak Power Rake? I've been looking at the Harley power rake, but they're so expensive I'm having trouble justifying the purchase for my needs. I know that this model doesn't have the option of angling for windrowing, but I don't think that's very critical...

On a minor note, I was at my dealer's yesterday ordering a pesky headliner push pin that keeps falling off and I happened to remember the question I recently posed about whether the air intake pre-cleaner was still available for the 'D' or new 5610 unit. The parts guy managed to find it and it...

I was talking to my dealer Friday and he gave me a quickie estimate on the cost I might be looking at for D-series. I was interested in the 3-pt hitch model, but he's telling me it's six to eight months away still. Here are the options he quoted: 1. Oversize turf tires 2. Suspension seat 3...

Well, I've been investigating getting a large diesel fuel transfer tank, but I've decided to consider a different and less expensive way to go with this. Right now, I use a 29 gallon Tempo Gas Walker with a hand pump to buy the diesel and transport it back to my place. I've attached images of...

Hay all, I posted this under the 'Oil, Fuel and Lubricants' forum but got no responses. I'm hoping some of you can give shed some light: I want to set up a 300 gal diesel tank on my property and have been doing some research on it. But I have several questions that I'm hoping you all can help...

I want to set up a 300 gal diesel tank on my property and have been doing some research on it. But I have several questions that I'm hoping you all can help me with. I've been looking at setting up the tank with the Tuthill Model #FR610CNT Fuel Pump, the Goldenrod Standard Fuel Filter, and the...

Just off the presses! I just hung up from talking with my dealer. One of his sales people was down at their Orlando dealership and they a had a 3-tp hitch Toolcat on the lot. I asked him to see if he couldn't get them to ship it up to him for a few days so I could try it out. Don't think his...

I was talking to my dealer about the 3-pt hitch model and he didn't even know about it, so he said he would check with his factory rep. There had been discussions here that it might be out in the first quarter, but that seemed doubtful if in February the rollout hadn't even been mentioned to...

We're getting close to the February timeframe that someone had mentioned might be when they would become available. I won't be buy one of the first ones off the line this time, but I will be interested once there's some substantial real world experience out there.

Is anybody using the Pat's Easy Change on a Grand L40 tractor? I don't actually have the tractor, but it seems from the photographs that there may not be 4 inches of straight arm. I'm also curious about whether the length of the upper link has been a problem with not enough reach. I'm going...

I'm thinking about selling my Toolcat, but so few used one come up for sale, that I don't know what a reasonable asking price is. Does anybody have any experience with selling one or know of someone that sold a used Toolcat?

Does anybody have any experience or heard anything about the Maletti flail mower? I'm thinking about getting a 90 inch unit.

Here's an age-old question. I need a garden tractor for some tight areas that I need to mow and also do some grading in. I've been thinking that the Kubota GR2100 would fit the bill with it's tight turning, front blade option that you can control from the driver's seat, 4WD for traction, and a...

What do you all think of $1,000 purchase price for a used Kubota T1670 with a 44 inch deck? It's about 4 or 5 years old. I don't remember how many hours it has on it, but it was only used to mow around the Kubota dealership, so I don't image it could be that many. It idles a little rough but...

I heard that Kubota will be introducing a new model to replace the GR2100. The dealers will get to see them at their November meeting and should be getting them around March of next year. Does anybody have any dirt on changes or new features?

I'm looking at these two tractors and would like to get your opinions about them. I've been looking at 40hp class tractors and decided on these 44's because of the stronger loaders they can handle. I have 13 acres that will eventually be a working pecan grove, but I'll need to disk and drap...

Well, the summer working season is here and I'm again having problems with my Toolcat. Does anybody know about a connection between forward motion and auxiliary hydraulics? After it gets warm from use, it can become more difficult to get it to move forward and sometimes it won't respond to...

Hi Everybody, Does anyone have any experience with the Weekend Warrior 64" Tandem Disc (at the bottom of the page). And it's actual width is 52 inches, apparently they reduced the width but didn't change it on the web site. Which is too bad, since I needed the 64 inches to cover the 60 inch...

Does anybody have any more information about getting a 3PT hitch option for the Toolcat. I hope they realize that some people would be happy with the 3pt hitch without PTO. I have the feeling that the PTO is the bigger challenge.

I was struggling through the horrible new Bobcat web site today and noticed that the Toolcat spec lists the tank size as 20 gals where my 'C' is only 16, so I realized that these must be the new specs for the 'D' series. Although some things don't make sense, like having just one ground...

Does anybody know if there's a wheel kit available for a panel gate? All I've found so far is set up for tube gates. I have an old panel gate that's sagging pretty bad and I need to make it useable as a stop-gap measure until I'm ready to replace it.

Is anyone pulling 3-PT hitch implements with your Toolcat? I need to level about five acres of dirt that's pretty rough from disking and plowing. I want it smooth to mow when I have grass growing there. It's going to be a pecan grove, but the trees are 60 feet apart. I want to pull a 10 foot...

This may be a new one for you. I have a Bobcat Toolcat that doesn't have a 3-PT hitch in the rear. I need to level about five acres of dirt that's pretty rough from disking and plowing. I want it smooth to mow when I have grass growing there. It's going to be a pecan grove, but the trees are...

I want to put a 3-pt hitch adapter on my skid-steer quick attach, and I've found three different brands. I'm wondering if you all have opinions as to which one is better? One is the Lackender. On this one, it looks like you need to slide the lower links into the pins. I guess friction is...

I've been looking for a landscape rake to put on my FEL skid steer QA, but the only thing I've been able to find so far is the York Rake. But as you can see, even the 6 ft. model cost $3,000. Is there anything cheaper out there? I want to put it up front because I want to clean up branches...

I was just noticing that there seem to be a lot more views of the different threads than there are of people posting or starting new threads. I was wondering if it's just people visiting from other forums, or if Toolcat folk just don't have a lot to say. Does anybody know how many members we...

After three pumps without fixing the problem insufficient hydraulic flow to run my mower, they finally figured out that the problem was some restrictor valve that was stuck. But now after about two weeks of use, the engine will run but I'm getting the "!" General Warning light with the 50-41...

I have auxiliary hydraulic control for the grapple on a rocker switch on my joystick, but I wonder about how the controls are set. I got the grapple just recently and have only been able to use it for a few days so far. As is the convention, I curl the bucket by moving the joystick to the...

I'm not sure what step I should take next. As I mentioned in another post, I was having problems with the mower deck not turning sufficiently fast to actually cut the grass, and the grapple was opening slower than it was closing. The dealer determined that my unit had the copper casings defect...

I've been thinking that I need more counterweight on my Toolcat when working with my grubber bucket and I figured I would get the most bang for the buck (lever arm) by putting the weights in a box mounted on the receiver hitch. All I've been able to find are boxes for 3-point hitches. Does...

As I've mentioned elsewhere here, I had a problem with my fuel gauge when I ran out of fuel while the gauge was telling me I had about 1/8 of a tank still. The road tech replaced the sensor, but when he tested it the gauge still wouldn't go below that 1/8 mark. He was going to order a new...

Well, it's now been a week since my Toolcat went into the shop and more than three weeks since I've been able to mow or use the grapple effectively. And now they're telling me that the hydraulic pump in on back order and they don't now when they'll get one! This is the first major problem I've...

Can't get the Search function to give me results for DR and chipper, so I need to start a new thread. I've been looking at the DR Top-Discharge Chipper and was wondering if anyone has any experience with this unit. I don't have a PTO or 3ph on my Toolcat, so that type of mount is not an...

Is anybody using one of the Bobcat Chippers on their Toolcat? I've been wondering with all the branches I'm constantly dealing with whether I should go ahead and get a chipper. Also, would the Bobcat chipper be the way to go, or is a stand-alone chipper better or cheaper?

I had my dealer install the air pre-cleaner and boy am I sold! I use to have the little red warning thing on the air filter go off almost every time I mowed. But ever since I've had the pre-cleaner, the air filter has stayed clean and I'm dumping out about the same amount of dust out of the...

I need a very small and light utility trailer that I can tow with my golf cart to haul garbage cans and such, nothing heavy. I've been looking for an aluminum trailer with high sides (about 3 ft tall) and a ramp tailgate that would have a 4 ft x 6 ft bed or smaller. I haven't been able to find...

I just got my AnBo hydraulic grapple and I have a question about it's operation. I set the engine rev for a comfortable speed to close the grapple, but then the speed to open it is slow or nonexistent. I keep having to rev up the engine every time I want to open the grapple, then throttling...

I need to move dirt around my property but I only have the one machine to both load the trailer and tow it. So I was thinking that a 4-wheel trailer would make it easier to hook up the trailer while loaded (not tongue weight). From another thread, I found out about this Model 8300 trailer by...

Take a look at this EW-10 EZ-Weeder Brush Cutter. Just think about rolling down the fence line with this thing on your Toolcat cleaning the whole thing up in no time! Seems like this could be really useful, but it seems that any attachment just has to be so expensive! I guess I'll just have...

I just searched and saw that it has been eight or nine months since I last posted! Where has the time gone? Anyway, a lot has happened. In between a lot of work, I finally got preliminary plans finished on the house I would want to build. But when it got down to getting the drafting done, I...

I was digging out some palmetto bush roots from some very fine dry sand this weekend and managed to dig my right front tire into the sand all the way to the floor board and the left rear tire up in the air. I fiddled around for a few minutes trying to get free without much success and was...

What do you all think about the Tekonsha <font color="blue">Prodigy</font> controller? I've been reading other threads that mention it. It looks from the information of this web page that they address some concerns that have been expressed about operating on hilly terrain, or backing up. I've...

Is anybody using the B&W <font color="blue">Tow & Stow Receiver Hitch</font>? I know it's not for every situation, since it's only rated for up to 10,000 lbs and 1000 lb tongue weight. But given that parameter, what do you all think about it? Anybody have experience with it? It comes in 6...

Hey guys, Just in case you're not looking in that direction, take a look at this <font color="blue">thread</font> I started in the Attachments Forum asking about a type of skidsteer mounted rake I would like to get to use on my Toolcat to clean up and gather brush. I don't know if such a thing...

Does anybody make a light duty brush rake like the attached? I'm looking for something that would attach to an FEL skidsteer quick attach and can gather brush and small branches. I'm not looking to move heavy logs or pick up anything, just drag things to gather them up. I would them use a...

Even though I don't have my Toolcat yet, I've already started my 'To Do' list. First, I'll be clearing my east property line (600 ft worth) to be ready to install a fence. Once I do that I'll be able to bring the dogs to the site and let them loose when I'm not working in the Toolcat, the...

I was at my dealers yesterday to look at my Toolcat and was also able to compare it to the B series, since he also had a used B on his lot. This first photo shows the difference in how the rollback cylinder is attached to the boom. It is attached much higher in the C and also looks more...

I've put together two sets of the photos Steve (odleefs) took of the B loaner he was using and his new C. The first set is the side views, the second set is the front views. One obvious difference I see on the side views is a connection to the boom that has to do with the bucket curl. The...

Really enjoying the new Toolcat forum, but I have a question. I don't know if I didn't set some preference in my profile, but when I go to the new Toolcat forum, it doesn't show the threads in Bold when there are new posts since I last visited, or show how many new posts there are (in...

Well, here's the forum, how about posting those pictures you took?

Hey, if you're interested in the this forum, be sure to click on your 'My Home' link, then go to the bottom of the page to the "Subscribe/Unsubscribe" line and click on the "Edit" link. You can then go toward the bottom of the first column to the Toolcat listing and click on the "S" radio...

You all may be doing this already, but just in case I thought I would mention it. Since posts on the Toolcat are showing up all over the place: Construction Equipment, Lawn and Garden, ATVs and Utility Vehicles, even Attachments and the infamous thread I started on Kubota Buying/Pricing (which...

I've noticed lately that the search function isn't picking up anything more recent than 2 weeks old. I've found several posts in that time frame that aren't getting pick up.

Is anyone trailering their Toolcat? I have several questions: How long a trailer should it need? The Toolcat is 15 ft. long with a bucket or grapple attached, but 17 ft. long with a pallet fork. Should I plan for the pallet fork and get an 18 ft.? Cost isn't a factor, because the 18 ft. is...

Does anyone have any experience with the dealer Bobcat-Kubota of Ocala? I was wondering how good they are in terms of service, parts availability and quality of repairs? I don't know anything about them. Thanks.

I've been thinking about a category that would better fit the <font color="red">Bobcat Toolcat</font>. As some may already know it's part tractor, part utility vehicle, part truck so it has features that relate to many forums and doesn't fit well into any. I've been bugging Muhammad about...

Steve ("odleefs") gave us information on the coming improvements for the Toolcat C-Series in this <font color="blue">Post</font>. One of the improvements is as follows: "The redesigned tilt linkage provides assisted leveling of the bucket and other attachments. The C-Series Toolcat machine...

Does anyone have an opinion about whether I should get Turf tires or R4's for a Toolcat? My land is flat, dry sand with very little underbrush. The trees are about 8 inches or less. I will initially be pulling out small trees and clearing, then placing fill and grading to build a house. I...

I just posted this on the Kubota forum because it was initially a comparison to a Kubota tractor. But I'm migrating toward a Toolcat and was thinking that this may be a more appropriate place to post for this kind of equipment. The Toolcat is not really a Utility Vehicle, but in the absence of...

Well, I was almost ready to take delivery of my B3030 cab when I discovered the <font color="green">Bobcat Toolcat</font> (I know, it's been out for over two years, I'm slow). By chance, I was looking at the B3030 posts in this forum on Friday to read what people were saying about it and I came...

I went back to my dealer Friday to ask my salesman if I could switch to turfs (I had originally asked for R4's). I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had put together the second B3030 cab that they had received, and this one had turf tires. I was expecting that the turfs would be less...

I'm wondering whether I really need the top and tilt option for my 3PH. I was thinking that I would need it to use with the box blade I'm getting, but I'm not sure how critical it will be to have the TnT for what I need to do. I'm going to be building a house on very flat land, so I will be...

I saw my B3030 at the dealer's lot today! The FEL isn't here yet and since I didn't get any forewarning that it was coming, we just ordered the ATI skid steer QA and the ATI bucket and pallet forks. I forgot to ask him if the TnT valves and cylinders are in. Looking at it in person it seems...

What do you all think? My five acres are as flat as a pancake with dry sandy soil, and I will always be using the loader with a box blade on back. I'd hate to take on the extra weight if I don't need it.

Well, the sightings and deliveries of B3030's are piling up, but what about the cab version? Has anyone seen, or gotten a cab model yet? I have mine on order and my dealer was expecting delivery around the middle of April, but we're close to there now and he hasn't heard anything yet. But the...

I just went to the Kubota site to look at the 72" MMM again and found this <font color="orange">NEW LINK</font> to the cab model! Since I hear that Kubota doesn't like to post the new models until they're at or near the dealers, they must be getting close! If you're wondering about all the...

I've read good arguments about getting the smaller bucket to get more concentrated effort, and also that your bucket should be wider than the tractor so you can cover your tracts. Here's my question: the B3030 has two bucket options, 54" and 60", and the tractor is 53.8 inches wide, according...

Just came back from my local dealer where I put my deposit down on a B3030-HSDC. It's one of two units he had on order and they expect to get it around mid April. It's been a long six months of research and bouncing around between different models, but I'm there! Thanks for all the great...

Since the tractor I am concentrating on now is the B3030, and Kubota doesn't make a skid steer quick attach for that model like they do for the L30's, I've been looking at what is available in an after-market product. I'm going to need to switch a fair amount between the bucket, a pallet fork...

This is nit picky stuff, but I'm curious just the same. I just noticed that the Kubota spec sheet for the new B3030/B2630 models has suffixes as "HSD" and "HSDC" (for the cab) instead of "HST" as it has been with older models. I assumed it was "T" as in hydrosTatic. Anybody know what the...

I would appreciate some opinions and insights on cabs. I'm looking at the B3030 and have been thinking about getting the cab model, since my procrastination has pushed the need for the tractor into converging with that model being delivered. I won't be in danger of hypothermia here in north...

I was reading about the Mid-Mount Mower on the Kubota web site and I wanted to ask if anybody knows what this feature means: "The 72" deck has the drive-over feature for easy installation and removal" Also, does anybody know what the height of the Cab model is? Kubota is still not listing any...

As I understand it, the new L3030 model is replacing the B2910. I had been considering the B2910, but my timetable has slipped on when I will be ready to purchase a new tractor, so I was thinking that this L3030 might be available by the time I'm ready. Does anybody have any more information...

Is a TnT option available for the B2910, by Kubota or otherwise? Also, does Kubota make a front-end loader skidsteer option for the 2910 like they do for the L3130? I know there is an ATI skidsteer available, but I had read that the Kubota was lighter, therefore taking away less from the...

Is anyone using a grapple, either bucket mounted or root grapple, with the LA402 loader and the B2910? I'm wondering how well it's working for you, capacity and operation wise, and how you set up the control of the grapple. Links to info on the grapples you're using would also be great.

Hello everyone, I have been spending a lot of time looking at Kubota models and someone recently suggested perhaps I should look at the New Holland models, specifically the TC29DA. I thought I would put out the question to the NH forum and get your perspective on it. First, I have a 5 Ac...

Ok, I'm still concerned about the loader capacity of the BX23, so I have been looking at the B2910 since it looked like a somewhat smaller version of the L3130. But then I looked at the MSRP for the two models and the B2910 is only $90 less than the L3130! Could someone give me some insight on...

Does the tractor industry come out with new models at any particular time of the year, like the automobile companies? And is there any source out there that speculates or digs for information about what the new features and improvements will be?

I just got the B series brochure from my dealer and was comparing the two machines and for the life of me, the only difference I can see in the two specs is that the 7800 has a front hydraulic outlet and the 2910 has a front and rear (what ever that means). I guess the 2910 has a tilt steering...

Does anybody know about a grapple that will work on the BX23 front-end loader? I'm trying to figure out if I can work with this smaller tractor, but I think I need a grapple for all the brush and tree trunk clean-up.

Looking at one more alternative. I had settled on the L3130 with the LA723 loader and a scraper box. I also decided I can't afford the BH. I wondered if having the BH on the BX23 might make up for the smaller size of the '23 in felling trees (being able to tear up roots as opposed to just...

I'm hoping that folks that are familiar with either of these BH could make a few comments. My understanding is that the BL4690B has self contained hydraulics and is powered by the tractor PTO, while the B90 uses the tractor hydraulics. What is the impact of that? Is one easier to take on and...

I've made a few more decisions, which of course means I have even more questions... (L3130, LA723 FEL, skid steer quick hitch, 66" HD bucket, grappler, scrapper box, maybe a BH) (felling and moving trees, grading and limited fill moving) I've decided I want to get the TnT for the 3pt hitch. I...

Still struggling with all the options, but little by little I'm narrowing things down, with a lot of help from the input on this forum. BTW, looking at an L3130 (I think), with the LA723 FEL. I'm not even sure what the Quick Attach is, or if it does a similar job to the Skid Steer Hitch. I...

I would appreciate some opinions of tire types. The land I will be working has a full tree canopy so it's mostly sand and perfectly flat, not a foot of drop in 5 acres. Before building a house and lawn, I will need to take down a lot of trees and do some grading for drainage. It occurred to...

I was having a conversation with a local dealer yesterday about the different models in the Grand L30 tractors. I was asking him what advantage I would get going from an L3130HST to a 3430 or 3830, how much of a difference the 3 or so HP step up with each model would make. Weight-wise in...

Could folks make comments on the relative merits of using a grapple bucket verses the 4:1? Obviously not having to switch buckets is one consideration. But what if you have the skid steer quick hitch?

I've seen references to this implement. Is it being used in other ways beyond the obvious limb pruning? Can it be used to chop up small felled trees, instead of using a Chainsaw?

I need some input on what is an acceptable distance to the selling dealer in terms of service and long term relationship. I'm in a small town and the Kubota dealer doesn't seem that big, plus I want context for the quote. The Kubota web site gives me 3 dealers: one is 10 miles, the others 35...

I'm thinking that perhaps I should take a step back. After reading a lot more of the other threads on the forum, I wonder if I wasn't too hasty in settling on the tractor size I did. I have been aiming at a 30HP like the L3130 or L3010, but is that the appropriate size? I will only have a 5...

I would appreciate some comments and advice. I'm going to be doing some selective tree clearing (read about 60%) on a 5 acre parcel. As I mention above, I am totally new to doing this on this scale. I will probably be getting an L3130 or L3830 with LA723 FEL. I was thinking I would push over...

Another newbie question: I've been reading about potential dangers of operating a backhoe if not properly installed: Safety Message What do you all think about using a BH that mounts on the FEL skid steer quick hitch like this one: FEL mounted Back Hoe I see it only has a 110° arc and 6...

Could anyone tell me if the Kubota L3010, which is the previous version of the L3130, has some of the same electronic diagnostics, digital display and ease of changing implements as the L3130?

Hello, everyone. I've just discovered this site and its got a wealth of information! I'm buying a five acre parcel that is heavily wooded, but with mostly small trees (4" to 8") that I want to selectively clear myself. I will also be building a house and want to do a lot of the grading. So I...
