kubota f3680

Recently bought Kubota F3680 with rotary deck. When I make an turn end of each stretch the front inside wheel spins, a lot. To help this I creep very slowly, make an bigger turn and gentle on the pedal. The fuller the lock the more wheel spin. Gearbox has recent oil change Any help greatly...

I have 5-6 acres of hillside some with 25 degree slopes to mow. Local kubota dealer has a 2012 F3680 4wd with 2300 hours for $9,000. Apparently, I can get a 63" Perruzo flail mower for about $6,000. Wondering if this is something that would work or should I put that money towards a Ventrac...

Just replaced one of the deck wheels tubes. Made it one mowing. All the tires that show up on a search have a 5/8" bore. Not sure if I can swap the oem wheels to the aftermarket to make it all work. Anyone have suggestions. They're not cheap.

Thinking about testing the waters a little bit on selling my F3680. 60" front deck rear discharge mower. Would anyone be interested

Still hunting a Kubota F3680 with 72 mower. Then I got to thinking, why not a 100 inch WAM mower? However, it wouldnt work in the tighter, smaller areas I have. So then I thought, could I buy a F3680 100 inch WAM and find a used 72 inch mower and interchange mowers? So my question is, can an...

Anyone know the part # for the remote hydraulic kit? And a price? Thanks Greg

The short shaft one. Do the u joints get grease from greasing the shaft? I have greased before, but admit, I missed grease on the last go thorough grease job on this mower. It also broke off a plastic nipple on the radiator. I DON'T want to buy a radiator too. Man this thing is a bear to...

Hi all, My 3680 goes great, but every so often, about once every five or ten hours, it just stops. It will sometimes start right up and run for the rest of the day, and other times, it won't start again until the next day, or after a long rest. When it stops, its like the stop solenoid - its...

Torn between a new F2690 and a used F3680. Not interested in tier4 systems. I looked at a used F3680 with very low hrs had just a little engine oil on the tip of the dipstick. No oil leaks or excessive smoke that I could see. Owner could not explain. Engine oil light works, but did not come on...

Pics I'll try and post link to video. Don't know why this phone app won't upload videos. and the video.... 218428_16515.mp4 - Google Drive

I've mowed with this F3680 for two years...have gotten it stuck a few times, but this last mowing, got it stuck twice. One area, I had gone thru a couple of times but it finally caught me. I probably should have not gone thru, but the other caught me completely off guard. I was coming up from...

After using this F3680 for two years...I've been saying I'm going to build a chute blocker for it. Well this spring, I've mowed ONCE...and yes the wind was wrong, and yes I got covered in grass. SO....I finally said to myself, just build it! In a second post after this one, I'll put some...

Just test ran an F3680 at a dealer locally, evaluating whether to purchase or not. When I first started it up and went to take it for a "ride", it would barely steer at all. The rear wheels turned as they should, but they just skidded around. It seemed like the differential lock was on...

Have not posted for a bit, but all going well with F-2880 w/60" deck on my steep Tasmania property....but ran across a clean '08 F-3680 with a 72" deck and got to wondering....More Power! Wider Cut! Who wouldn't? When we got this place, I took a gamble (with JTs helpful encouragement) on a...

I was out mowing this past weekend with my F3680 and noticed that the center blade was not cutting the same as the two side blades, especially when cutting thru some thicker/higher grass. I could hear the blade stop turning and definitely see the path of grass that was higher in the middle. I...

My F3680 started missing a week ago, in fact I didn't finish mowing. It felt like fuel issues. Looked at the fuel filter, checked internet and ordered one. Went to install in, then realized there are two. I changed the one nearsest the pump. Seemed to have fixed it, but half way through...

Had this for a gear, never tried it. Thought I'd tilt up and sharpen blades before start of mowing season. Pretty sure I've followed instructions but it won't tilt. I even put a cheater pipe on it for leverage bent the pipe. Maybe I'm seeing the facts an old man must face. Ideas anyone?

The closest Kubota dealer has closed, so it would be easier to buy over the internet. The Kubota part number is 16271-32092 This does cross reference to many different brands, but hesitate in just throwing a dart and buying one. I've stop using Fram filters a long time ago. Used Baldwin...

hey, ive been doing some quick research about replacing my 2007 kubota b3030 seat with the f3680 seat and it seems like it is an expensive but worthwile option. has anybody done this themself? does it bolt on easily? ive read about messick's posts but cannot seem to find them. if anybody could...

ad is as follows -- "Kubota F3680 front mount mower, 4 wheel drive, hydrostatic transmission, 72" side discharge mower, 36 HP diesel engine with low hours. I am the original owner of this mower new and was used very little. The mower is like new with less than 100 hours. Also included is a...

Since I've had this mower, I've notice a squeal coming from the deck when I get into heavier grass, or go faster in regular grass. I previously assumed it's something to do with the mower belts. But listening to it as I mowed today it occurred to me it might be a bearing squeal from pulling...

Once I buy one of these and put a mower on it. https://video-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hvideo-xaf1/v/t42.1790-2/11795705_1047702698575298_1090597345_n.mp4?efg=eyJybHIiOjc1MiwicmxhIjo1MTJ9&rl=752&vabr=418&oh=a7f5693323ae326ca731f316808e6ec2&oe=55C01547

I recently bought this mower secondhand and used it for about 2 hours before I lost drive and steering. I thought it was due to lack of hydraulic oil which probably allowed air into the system. I had a full service but went to collect it today to find the steering still is not responsive and...

Hello All I have just joined the ranks of Kubota F series ownership by buying a used 2007 F3680 with 60" side discharge and GCD660F Hi Dump grass collector. I have been itching for one for a while but couldn't afford new and good ones don't show on the used market in Ireland often. Have only...

Having recently purchased a used approximately 5 year old F3680 mower I have been going over it servicing and dealing with some of the wear and tear. One of the things I found was the steering knuckle bushes to have excessive wear which wasn't so noticeable with the machines weight on the wheels...

My first mowing with this F3680, I'd say the cut is excellent. Better than I hoped for. Perhaps it looks so good because it is shorter than I normally cut and that may be a more groomed look. But I want to raise the cutting deck height. Over the years my understanding is that the front of...

If any of you have seen any of my post asking questions on the F series, you know I've been interested in getting one for some time. Finally traded my ZD326 for an F3680, 72" side discharge deck. Reasons I wanted the F, over the ZD....mowing around ponds, hillsides, wet areas. Today, didn't...

I've noticed there appears to be two different seats on the F3680. How does either seat compare to the ZD326S seat...which I have and like.

Thinking of buying a new mower now that my tractor is close to being paid off. I see on the Kubota website the Fxx80 models are still listed, along with the newer 90 series. I'm not really interested in an F3990, which costs nearly $5k more, and is 4 cyl vs 3, which probably burns more fuel...

Going to take a look at used F3680 with mower and snow thrower, not really familiar with these front mount commercial mower configurations. Any suggestions on what I should check? It seems like it's a "regular" tractor turned backwards, and I know a fair bit about my tractor. I know to look at...

Thinking of an F3680. 1. Do the doors come off? It's too hot around here to mow in a cab without taking doors off. 2. Snowthrower listed as 51", but width of machine listed as 54". Snowblowing is major use, I want to make sure this thing will work well. Any other comments on these things...

Selling my 2006 F3680 72" front deck mower 690 hours, brand new steer tires, 2 new spindle baring. Runs brand new. 4X4 John 401-413-5357

I am looking at these machines. Is it worth the extra to get the F3680? Seems to me that 30 HP is a gracious plenty, but open to input. What about Rear vs. Side discharge?

Does anyone out there have any experience with the turning assist breaks on the F series mowers?

I recently traded in my ZD28-72" for a ZD31-72". I assumed the new ZD31 would be an upgrade, but I may have made a mistake based on my application. I use the mower for personal use, cutting 5 acres. The terrain has some slopes, and a few tight spots surrounding our pond. The ZD28 did OK with...

Can someone please explain to me why the Kubota F3680 offers heat but not A/C in the cab. Since it's a lawn mower for many more months [in most regions] than it's a snow thrower, it would certainly seem to make sense that A/C would take equal or higher priority than heat. Heat is simple to...

Two quick questions. [1] Can one of these F3680 mowers cut 6" tall, wet grass without constantly clogging up during the cut? [2] Do you recommend the mulching kit approach, the side chute, or the rear chute approach? Many Thanks! The Gardener
