Has anyone added a Kubota down pressure relief valve for their L series front snowblower or other implement? If so, did you notice any difference in operation of the implement? Thanks

I have a F3080 and am going through spring maintenance for greasing. I am having trouble getting at zerks on main driveshaft (pic below). For rear driveshaft, I simply jacked rear wheels off the ground and turned them until zerks accessible. For main shaft, even with transmission in neutral...

Looking for suggestions on how best to protect wiring where it enters the diverter valve on my front snowblower. The picture shows how the conduit ends before the connector and this is an area where heavy snow and ice can fall from the top of the blower. Not sure if the black piece on the...

In the past hydraulic couplers had colour coded dust caps but I am now seeing what appears to be colour coded wraps (metal or plastic) on 2 ends of the couplers - see photo. Can someone tell me what these coloured wraps are called and are they size specific?

Not wanting to start a debate between those who wax their tractors and those who don't, but wondered if anyone had found anything to protect the plastic/fiberglass roof from sun fading/discoloration? Seems like there is an endless supply of automotive products to preserve and "rejuvenate"...

Anyone using an Grand L60 series with a front snowblower having any problem with unintentional scraping of driveway pavement? Using L4474 blower (weight about 1000lbs). Tried gently lowering blower to just touch pavement and also tried using "float", both leave scrape marks. Options I have...

Anyone with L Grand series using the Kubota radio with bluetooth to make/receive hands free cell phone calls while operating tractor?

Anyone using a Kubota front snowblower model L4474 or L4485? Looking at blower specs, L4474 only has a 20 inch impeller (fan) size compared to 26 inch for L4485. A 20 inch impeller seems kind of small for a 74 inch blower and would seem to run the risk of being overwhelmed by quantity of snow...

Currently looking at L4760 -6060 Grand tractors and trying to decide ability to fit in garage. Specification page Kubota brochure for these models lists R1 tire size (not R3 or R4) and same table reports the following cab heights: - 4760 (91.1 inches) - 5460 (92.5 inches) - 6060 (92.5 inches)...

Considering upgrade to Grand L6060 HSTCC (used primarily for snow removal) Anyone with one of these that can provide feedback on real world experience: 1. problems (mechanical, electrical, emissions) 2. fuel economy 3. cab noise levels - need to be able to make and receive cell phone calls...

Is anyone using a Kubota front autohitch? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9Jvzp4j2NA If so, how has it worked? Is the subframe easy to mount? Is it as reliable at disconnect and reconnect as the video shows? I gather we don't have access to this in Canada.

Dealer is supposed to pick up F3080 in next couple of days to install F5720 blower and necessary hydraulics for chute rotation and deflector control. I assume that I don't need to send the following parts attached to the lift arms: 1. Rear lift links (see arrow in attached pic) 2. Clevis pins...

I am about to meet with my dealer about pricing F5720 blower (with hydraulic control for chute rotation and deflector) for my F3080. Any ballpark figures for what I should expect to pay? I'm guessing the starting price will be about $5800. Experience has taught me there is less wiggle room on...

I am looking at F5720 snowblower for my F3080 (see separate post in Kubota Owning and Operating section). Does anyone have one of these 57" blowers? If so, are you happy with build quality? Thanks

I have an F3080 which has served well as a mower but I am now thinking about adding a front snowblower. I notice that the wheels tend to throw grass on battery and I am worried about snow/salt being thrown there also. I seem to recall seeing a post in the past where someone added "mudflaps" to...

My neighbor has a JD 2520 which has a dealer installed independent (loader joystick controlled) mid-mount mower lift kit. It has worked well for 3+ years but now usual joystick movement to raise and lower the mower (similar to raise or lower loader arms) no longer works. If he connects the...

The throttle lever seems to have a fair amount of movement without changing engine speed. In the attached pic, the throttle lever travels up to this point before there is any change in engine rpm. Is this normal?

Looking at L series I notice: L3410 1998-2002 L3430 2003-2007 L3540 2007- present Does this mean we are due for a new L series? If so, any (serious) suggestions on what this new model may sport in features? I have tended to buy final model year (bugs worked ...or at least identified)...

Does anyone have any experience with the Hardy front mounted 3PH for snowblowers? HARDY Front mounted - 3 point hitch This appears to be shaft driven (vs hydraulic pump) from rear PTO. I like the idea of being able to use my current rear blower (Pronovost P620) without trading for new lighter...

The rear remote levers on my B3030 vibrate loudly at times. Other levers seem to have a plastic sleeve positioned where the lever runs through the lever guides. Is there a plastic sleeve that I can order for these levers? Have others noticed a similar problem and found another solution for this...

I'm about do to HST/hydro fluid & filter service. I purchased Kubota filters and SUDT, only to find I still had about 1.5 gal of SUDT left over from last change 2-3 years ago. SUDT stored inside in basement garage. With the price of this stuff, I hate to discard it, but don't want to risk damage...

Midwest Industries once made a 3 point quick hitch called Freedom Hitch. Unfortunately they have stopped making them. I would like to pick up a couple of extra cat 1 "implement" pieces. Has anyone seen any for sale or have some laying around that they are not using? Thanks for any leads.

I was using my 2410 HSDB yesterday doing light loader work and my neighbor who was helping me mentioned that he could hear a noise like a rock rolling around inside the rear tire/rim on the left side (as you sit on the tractor). I hadn't appreciated it but when I cut RPM to 1100 and drove close...

Well the day has finally arrived. New B2410 HSDB with 60" midmount mower delivered today. Work so busy that all I have had time to do is back it into the garage after the dealer dropped it off. Probably the weekend before I will have any "quality time" with the new addition. Still have snow on...

Well I have decided on B2410 with 60" midmount mower. Unfortunately the budget ran out before my wish list did and there is no FEL for this year. I just know that I'm going to want to do something more with the tractor than mow grass this summer so I began to look at dirt scoops. They seem like...

Looking at new B2410 with 60" midmount mower. Any idea what a "good" price would be? I live in Canada and there does appear to be somewhat of a discrepancy when I convert posted prices in USD to Canadian dollars. Any Canadians lurking out there with Canadian prices? Any idea what to expect for...

I have read through a number of the old posts on bi-speed turn option. Comments seem mixed at best. I spoke to one the dealers here and he indicated that >50% of 2410's he sells have bi-speed option. He also indicated that he could not recall a single case where bi-speed problem/malfunction...

Thanks for the input from everyone. Hopefully this weekend I will have a chance to try both the 7500 and 2410. I haven't looked at anything larger than 2410 for 2 reasons. First is space - my winter snow removal requires I negotiate through a 53" gate and I gather that tractors larger than 2410...

I am in the market for a compact tractor primarily for mowing 2+ acres, occasional loader work, and snow removal (with snow blower) in the winter. The mowing is at the camp (somewhat uneven lawn) but no hills. The snow removal is at home (in the city) where space is at a premium. I started...
