    Just bought a F3060!

    Hi Doug! Nice looking 3060! Thanks for the tips on the gear boxes. I plan to tackle those next now that the center section is holding gear oil. The front hydraulics is one of the things that got me excited about this machine. The attachments aren’t that common, but hopefully I can track down a...

    Man, that’s a great deal. Let me know if you ever decide to make the big rollers too.

    Just bought a F3060!

    Glad it digested the cinder block okay LOL. Doesn’t seem like much would slow these things down! I need to get an anti-scalp roller for mine too. Can’t believe it’s $192!! The headlight housing and headlight are going to run me $250, but it may come in handy some evening hahaha I hear you on...

    Hahaha yeah I think the previous owner liked to mow wayyyy to close to the trees! I do body work and paint on the side. I’ll try my hand at redoing the hood and front apron sometime.

    Just bought a F3060!

    Thanks, Shady! I found a power angle blade for it online for around $2k. It was just too far away. Hopefully, some more attachments will pop up from time to time. This thing is a beast! It “found” a 2’ long piece of 1/2” rebar in the weeds behind my garage yesterday (dang messy contractors)...

    Just bought a F3060!

    Made some good progress on my repairs over the weekend. Put on some new rear tires and replaced the leaky pinion seal. The new tires really helped on the steep stuff and it was nice to not have 80w90 slung all over the bottom of the engine. Also, I ordered some more parts to secure my battery...

    Just bought a F3060!

    Thanks for the recommendations on the seat. I’ll check out some of the aftermarket options. I agree that mowing after dark is not ideal, but sometimes I run out of daylight late in the season due to my work schedule. I’m planning on getting a power angle blade and power broom for this machine to...

    Just bought a F3060!

    I was just typing the same thing lol. Those tires turned into slicks on both ends. Thankfully it was a fairly slow slide down the hill so I didn’t tear anything up or eat the steering wheel. I hate trimming those hills too. I try to only do it a few times a season. Makes me want to kill all the...

    Just bought a F3060!

    Unfortunately, the loose moss and mud filled those turf tires pretty quickly, and then I was toast. The bad thing about our property is most of the steep stuff is above the road and it’s even steeper dropping down to the road. I think I need to landscape that section and just stay the heck away...

    Just bought a F3060!

    I mowed our property today and I was super impressed with the results. The yard looks like a golf course and it probably took me 1/3 of of the usual time! Only minor issue I found with the tractor was a leaking input seal in the rear end. I’ll keep it topped off until I get a chance to replace...

    Just bought a F3060!

    Seller said it was changed at the end of last mowing season. Has maybe 10 hours on it now. How often do you guys change the oil in the rear end. He said that has not been done since he owned it.

    Wow! That’s sounds like quite the machine. My brother recommended Messicks too. I’ll give them a jingle.

    Just bought a F3060!

    Thanks, Rusty! Great to know parts are still available even if they’ve been discontinued for a while! I hope you’re right that my night mowing is a thing of the past!

    Just bought a F3060!

    Thanks for the tips! We do have a local Kubota dealer, but wasn’t sure if they would be helpful on a 20 year old machine. I’ll reach out to them. Everything looks to have fresh grease on it and the seller just changed the oil/filters. I’ll definitely check the breather. I took the oil fill cap...

    Just bought a F3060!

    Hi all! First post here! I bought a F3060 last night and am working on getting myself more educated on their operation and maintenance. The guy I bought it from owned multiple Kubota machines and seemed to be very knowledgeable about them. He had owned it for a year before buying a newer F...
