Needing to change the oil in the old '3400 tomorrow and need to know the drain plug size so I can pick up a couple of gaskets. The tractor is at my property 30 miles away, and while I think I have some spare crush washers there, I don't want to take the chance. Thanks guys. Edit: It's a 2006 btw.

Full tank of diesel and was bush hogging the rear of the property for the last time this year. 20 minutes in, the rpms start to decline a little and the tractor starts to lose power. I stop and adjust the throttle and the rpms started to go back up, then right back down. After about a 5...

This is a stupid question, but I have a 2006 l3400hst and can't remember if it has a single air filter or an inner an outer. I've been sick and haven't been using my tractor much in the last couple of years, so its been a while since I've changed the filter, but today I noticed I only had 1...

Does anyone know the cross reference # for a mobile 1 or any other easy to find, decent, oil filter? Thanks.

A couple of weeks ago I switched over to Rotella T, and flushed the radiator. Ever since I've notice a burning smell which seems to be coming from the exhaust. My first thought was I spilled antifreeze on the block, but I don't see any and it doesn't really smell like antifreeze burning. Today...

Went to the local kubota dealer to get the filters and fluids for the hydraulic change and the guy at the counter (who has been there forever) talked me into buying Sure Guard instead of the Kubota oil. Nearly 1/2 the price of the Kubota udt, and he said they use and sell a lot of it. So, I said...

No matter how warm I let her get before dropping the plugs, no matter how long I let her drain, I still can only get 5 quarts in! The manual says 6 qts., but either the manual is wrong or my dipstick is.:mad:

For whatever reason I can't seem to get any grease into a couple of the pins on my bh75. I replaced the zerks, but still cant squeeze any grease in. I purchased a pneumatic gun and even that isn't strong enough. What am I doing wrong?

The manual says 6 quarts of motor oil, but I have yet to get more than 5 in. Prior to draining I run the motor 'till warm, then drain the fluid for 30 minutes...still 5 quarts and its touching the top hole on the stick. Anybody else?

...tell me what the line that's rubber, directly under the hst pedal on my l3400, and approximately 1" in diameter and attaches to a metal hose is for? Thanks.

I just changed the hydro fluid, 2nd time, and am having some problems. I changed it at 50hrs, no problems, the only difference now (200 hrs) is while changing I replaced a quick-attached that had been leaking ever since I had the backhoe installed.. I can go forward and reverse, curl the...

I used it to check my psi's, then instead of putting it in a zip-lock, I let it sit on the bench and collect dust/dirt. I need to use it now to replace the leaking one on my backhoe. Is there anything I can soak it in, or should I just blow it with the air compressor? Thanks.

a 5'x5', 5" thick slab of concrete weighs?

I know the best way to dull out you lawn more blades is by cutting wet grass, but what about a bushog's blades? Being that they are blunt to begin with, does cutting when wet hurt the blades in anyway? Should I worry about the bottom of the deck?? Faye just won't go away!:mad: Thanks.

I removed the hoe tonight for the first time....went real smooth.:rolleyes: Anyway, after reinstalling the 3-pt, what route is the best when attaching the inlet/outlet hydraulic hose? It seems no matter which way I route it, the hose makes contact with the adjustable lift link. I know I'm...

I finally parked my tractor at around 9pm last night. I didn't install the stabilizer pins, didn't think it was necessary. This morning I find that the hoe had completely leaked down overnight. Is this normal?

I have a ztr toro. At start up it shoots a black cloud of smoke. It clears up after a couple of seconds and then no more smoke and it runs fine. Anybody else with the Kohler have this or should I take it back to the box store I bought it from.

Does anyone sell a bolt on mechanical thumb for the bh75? I did a search on bro tec but it looks like they don't offer one.

New 1540hst, large r-4's with fel/grill guard and MF backhoe. Whats a guesstimate on this package cost, with the 0-60 months?

..get moved to the exclusive 'Major Brand' category above Massey? Not knocking Mahindra, but growing up Massey's were 2nd to none and JD's major competition..at least around here. Is it just the area you live in or what?

I checked the axle oil and it was at least a full inch below the check hole. I just changed it 25hrs ago, 50 hr mark, with kubota udt, and see no signs of a leak. When I put the udt in I did it slowly to allow it to seep into the hubs, or at least I thought I did. I can't remember if it took...

Took a break from hogging, got back on and the pto would not engage. Pto cable snapped.....:mad:

I have been leading on a craigslist scammer who is 'selling' a new b7800 w/fel for 5k. He, of course, wants me to transfer funds before he ships the tractor. Anyway to take this info and get this guy nailed? Here is the payment information: Name: Pullman Ben Bank name: BANK OF AMERICA Bank...

There is a L35 tlb GST w/18" bucket & thumb on my local craigslist claiming 156 hrs for $23,500.00. Does that sound about right? I have been planning on forking out the 7k for a woods bh80x, but it seems like I could sell my tractor and with the money for the hoe & another grand or two, I could...

My cutter came minus the manual...it has a large plug on the side of the gear box about an 1'' or so from the top of the box, and a smaller plug down low..I'm assuming the drain plug. Do I just fill it with the 90w to the point that it is seeping out of the of the large plug on top? I know its...

I got a quote yesterday of 6850.00 for woods backhoe and install on my l3400. I can also pick-up a 300 hr bx23 tlb for about the same price. My uses will be primarily trenching for electrical lines (once a month or so) along with the occasional hole digging and stump removal around my...

Are they any good for gathering oak leaves and small sticks? Leaf blower (nothing worse than trying to blow leaves during the windy spring months) and rake just don't cut it for this old man anymore. :D

Just finishing up my 50 hr service, and just noticed I miss counted how many gallons of udt I needed. I do have almost 3 quarts left in a container that I bought to re-fill after a leak.. The dealer is closed until Wednesday :( . In short...I am lacking around a 1/2 gallon of kubota-UDT. Would...

A good buddy of mine borrowed my tractor today to bush-hog some paths for hunting. Fine..no problem, he's never borrowed it before, but he's mechanically capable and has run equipment before. Drops it back off at my place,calls me up and says it ran fine except the fuel line going into the top...

Does anybody have or know anybody that has a trencher on their tractor? I have seen a couple on the web, but have never talked to anyone with real experience with one. Thanks.

Not counting being real close to any body of water. Just curious. Here, you are looking at 20k at a minimum if its multiple acres.

Anybody use a 6ft hog on their 3400? I feel I have enough pto power, but was wondering if it would be too much weight and stress for the hitch. Thanks.

I noticed that I am loosing a small amount of fluid at the connector on my fel cylinder. I tried to tighten the connector, and it is as tight as it gets. I think the threads just need to be re-wrapped with teflon tape. Is there a trick to backing out the connector and not loosing any hydraulic...

After 6.5 hrs on my new tractor, (good bit of fel work) I just noticed they never greesed the top pivot pin on my loader. Dry as dust...paint pealing on the arm.:mad: I guess I should have looked her over better when they delivered it. So..what should I do? Tell them to pick it up, and give...

My owners manual says that when parking that you should lower your loader and implements all the way to the ground. What is the reason for this? I would rather not leave them sitting on the ground if its not necessary. Thanks.

Well I decided to hook up the brush hog today and do a little cutting. Seemed only a bit sluggish, thought it was just the cutter. Turns out had the parking brake on!:eek: I got a total of 2 hours on the machine, and the last hour was with the parking brake on pulling a cutter. So...what...

Tomorrow the Kioti dealer will have the ck30 tractor in for me to sit on. It's the only tractor that I have not had the chance to look at in my long search for a 30-35 hp tractor with fel. Even without seeing the Kioti, I have narrowed my choices to it and the kubota l3400. The 'bota has more...

Got a quote of 17,200 with la463 loader, r-4 tires, grill guard and hydro transmission. He also quoted me $1400.00 for a 60" woods brush hog. How do these prices sound? Thanks.

Got a quote of 19k for a syncro 1540 with r-4 tires and 1525 fel. He had a 1533 syncro with skid steer loader for 18,500, but I would probably never need to remove the fel. I noticed the 1540 is the same 3 cyl. engine as the 1533, except it is turbo. How have they been holding up? Thanks in...

you buy a brand new Kioti from your local dealer, and he belly's up, and he is the only Kioti dealer in the state? Only asking because I am considering buying a ck30 from a guy who is just starting out as a Kioti dealer. If he doesn't make it, does this mean I am travelling out of state for...

Got a quote today of $16,910 plus tax for a new ck30 with fel and 5 foot bushhog. Does this sound about right? Or does it sound like the dealer was leaving himself some room for bargaining? Thanks

I have a chance to pick up a 2007 montana 3040 with fel, bushog, post hole digger, box blade and 16 foot tandem trailer all for $17.7 k. The problem is that the dealer is 120 miles away. The dealers around here are Kubota, John Deere, Kioti and Farmtrac. The best price I can find locally is the...
