    Kubota M4,5,6 clock setting

    So I can’t find it it in the manual if you can set the clock to 12 hour time instead of the 24 hour time. Anyone know if you can change this setting? It’s set to 24 hour and I’d like to change it to 12. Thanks.

    We have a landpride batwing that we are having difficulties lowing the wings. It seems like the pto shafts on the wings are seizing up and won't allow the wings to come down.

    Just had 200 gallons of diesel stolen out of our tank and was wondering how you lock one of these pumps (Fillrite 700). Can you only do it at the power source (breaker/switch)? I figure they had a pretty large pickup tank to get away with that much. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    We recently had to replace the injector pump on our Ford 5610 (1988) and I was curious as to why Injector Pumps are so expensive. We spent $1500 on the thing, but the tractor runs better than ever. The tractor had 2800 hours on it when it lost all power and we had to replace it. Thanks!
