kubota l4240

There is a small arcing here where the metal is making contact. Is there supposed to be a gap there? Supposed to be solid contact? I just noticed, but have no clue how long it’s been going on.

Trying to decide what would be the best solution for adding more stablity to my Kubota 4240. I have the tires filled with washer fluid, rears are set out 3 inches wider, and currently use a box blade (approx 450lb) on the 3pt when doing loader work. I am in east TN and my land has rolling hills...

Was pushing some brush yesterday and started binding up, reached for the shifter to pull back into neutral but couldn’t get it fast enough and heard a loud pop, through my earbuds playing music and ear muffs. I was hoping it was the yaupon I was pushing but the hot fluid on my arm confirmed my...

as the title says, My L4240 stalls when the ambient temp is over 70ish. I just had a full service done, including fuel filter, oil, and hydraulics. It was happening prior to this as well. It stalls when its idling, or under load (PTO or not). But only when its hot. I ran it for 3 hours in...

I recently purchased a used Kubota L4240 GST with 1,100 hours. I took it straight to a neighbor friend tractor mechanic to look over. What major things should be assessed, adjusted, replaced at this point? Anything particular to check for wear?

I’m going to look at a 2010 L4240 GST with 724 loader tomorrow. 1,200 hours. Anything specific to this model, specifically the GST transmission to check out? What would you be willing to pay?

This tractor has two PTO speeds with a neutral between them. AT the moment it is stuck in Low and I cannot move it into neutral. The lever is spongy - it moves quite a lot but does not shift. Any suggestions, much appreciated? Just to be clear it is the gear shift lever that is stuck not the...

Just found out while brush-hogging,noticed a hydraulic leak under the tractor;that little loose plug that tells you have a seal gone.Big repair ,have to split the tractor.1350 hours and a 2009 model. O well,been trouble free to this point.

I've been studying this amazing write up. Thank you Piston great job, it's got me on the right track but I still have a few questions. https:// QQQ.tractorbynet.com/forums/hydraulics/232020-how-i-added-rear-remote.html Use your imagination on the links I posted to reconstruct them, i changed...

I bought a new Kubota L4240 from our local dealer a few years back. I had them load the rears and after about a year and not being kept in the garage a few times, I noticed the tires were "bleeding" chloride solution thru the sidewalls. I put the valve at 12 o'clock and drained multiple 5 gallon...

Tractor data appears to be wrong. TractorData.com Kubota L424 tractor engine information Can anyone confirm the actual oil fill capacity with a filter?

I have a L4240 HSTC with about 2000 hours. For a little while now, when you let off the pedal, it will slowly creep in reverse. I have tried adjusting the pedal to the point where it wouldn't start (thinking it's in a movement position) to no avail. I "think" something is bypassing internally as...

Attempting to get my tire chains sorted and as shown in the pictures this is the clearance I have. The clevis/shackles just clear but with almost zero clearance, the rest of the chains have roughly 1", maybe just a bit more. Tractor is a Kubota L4240 with R4(17.5 - 24) tires, the rears are...

What year did Kubota start using the EGR valve in these models? Or did did they have it for all years? I am looking at purchasing something in this range in the next year or two. I want to purchase used but not too old. I also want to keep the emissions standards as simple as possible. I believe...

I have a 2010 L4240 HSTC-3 with 854 loader. It only has 700 hrs. on it. I parked it with the loader in float and now it only rolls the bucket. It feels as if the up and down is unconnected as it moves with no resistance. Pulled the boot up and don't see any broken parts but also don't see it...

Hello Gentlemen- it's been awhile since I posted but this is still my GO TO forum for my 'Botas. I am making my last payment March 1st on the L4240 and my last payment in May on the BX2370..... WOOOHOOO! :cool2: With that being said, my wife and I have some projects we want to do with frost...

Hey, I have a 2010 L4240HSTC-3 that won't start without the block heater when it's cold. I've heard Kubota used the wrong relays in some tractors. My glow plug light, lights and shuts off after a few seconds but no start. When I inspected the relay one spade was blued. The parts manual shows...

I recently acquired an L4240HSTC. Unfortunately the operators manual was misplaced by the original owner. Does anyone have a link to a pdf of one? If not, Messick's has them for around $25.00. Fair price? Thanks!

I'm looking at a 2010 Kubota L4240 HSTC with fel this weekend. It has 630 hours and is in pretty clean shape. Did these tractors have the problematic emissions control on them? He is asking $25,000. for it. Is that a fair price? We average 200" of snow where I live and a cab tractor sure would...

Hi all, I bought a new L4240 Grand L-series tractor last year (with cab) and am looking to add a loader to it. What's confusing me is that the UK brochure says that the 4240 needs to have the LA714 loader NOT the LA854. The LA714 is a lot less capable loader for almost exactly the same price as...

My machine, 2013 L4240HSTC, has started leaking hydraulic fluid from the split pin plug under the clutch housing. Not a serious leak, but several drops on the concrete where it is parked. I'm fairly confident that it is hydro fluid and not engine oil. It is almost clear and not dark. After...

I have a (fairly new) Kubota L4240 and want to use it with an attachment that has external controls (a post driver).

Hello Everyone, I'm a new owner of a L4240HSTC, bought her used with about 95hrs 2 months back. So far so good, but I have been noticing that the engine temp gauge shows exactly 50% all of the time. (after warmup). The gauge has 8 boxes that will illuminate, mine always has 4. I didn't think...

Tractor is L4240 with 100 hours. Loader is LA854. The loader control arm is quite stiff. I thought it would 'break in' after some use. My previous tractor was a L3240 and the control was great. Very smooth. This 4240 is almost a tad jerky because it is so stiff. Any thoughts? TY

I've been remodeling my shop/barn for a couple of years, and so my L4240 has been sitting out in the weather.

This forum is a great resource. I started shopping a few weeks ago for a 40-50 HP tractor. My budget was open but I wanted to get a good value.

I have only found the service manual for L4240 (Kubota L3240-L5740-SM-06820 SERVICE MANUAL.pdf), but my tractor is an L4200. What are the diffferences between the two? Can I use the L4240 manuals interchangeably for maintenance/ repair of my L4200? If not, where can I find the manuals...

My tractor with a bit over 350 hours has recently started showing four bars on the temp gauge rather than the three I normally see. Although this isn't overheating, I'm concerned. I've flushed the coolant, blown air through the radiator, checked the air filters, and oil levels. I'm...

I'm thinking about running a hydraulic wood splitter on the 4240. What would be the best way for me to do this, Just hook into a remote? The tractor does not have a detent on the remotes for it to be always on so I guess I would have to use a rope to tie it on?

I have just installed a 3rd function capability on my L4240. I would like to slow its action down some, to gain better control. Has anyone installed adjustable flow limiters on this or a similar tractor? If so, where did you install them, and where did you buy them? Thanks for the help. PMH

I was out working with my L4240 today when I noticed the oil pressure lamp was on. I immediately stopped the tractor. Oil level is fine. Oil is nice and clean. The tractor has 112 hours on it. I changed oil and filters at 50 hours, just recently pulled 100 hour maintenance. I let the tractor...

Howdy. Over the weekend, I test drove a Mahindra 4035 HST and Kubota L4240 HST, both with a FEL. There is one dissimilarity that really sticks out; the 4035 weighs 1146 lbs. more than the 4240, though it makes four less HP. I realize that weight can be an advantage in certain applications...

Like the title says Need a measurement for a L4240 Loader control handle shaft diameter. The measurement needs to be off of a NON third function Kubota. When my L4240 was delivered I forgot to measure the loader control handle shaft diameter. Worst thing, it was on my list of things to do and...

I've got a one year old Kubota. The L4240 has 37 PTO HP. I've read the threads recommending 5 hp/foot of mower, but others that say this may be overkill. An eight foot mower would be just pushing the 5hp/' rule here. There is a used JD MX8 at auction coming up. It's a lift version. Does...

I have previously stacked 4x5s 3 high with my little L3400 - although only 2 high was comfortable. Can someone with a L4240 tell me how high you can stack 5x5s or 4x5s. Should I comfortably be able to expect 3 high.

Thought I'd start this thread as a reference for those who might be thinking about this. First let me state the obvious, it's expensive! At least for me. I just got back from the dealership with a nice $1954 bill. I'd recommend getting this done when you're making your deal. I believe you could...

I have a L4240 and I am installing a BH92 backhoe. I have all ready installed the sub frame and I am having a little trouble understand the instructions as far as how to run the hydraulic lines. It looks like there is an outlet running from under the tractor seat back under towards the back of...

I am getting ready to purchase the BH92 backhoe for a Kubota L4240. Hard to find anything used, so I may have to bite the bullet and dive into purchasing a new one. Two questions: I would like to save the $500 and assemble and install it myself. Any suggestions, warnings, etc? I would like...

Dropped it off yesterday. I've got a grinding/rubbing sound resonating from the 2wd/4wd selector. There was always a sound in the cab but it's growing in decibel levels. Now to wait and see what they find. I wanted to post this incase anyone else runs across this issue. She has 225hrs on her now.

I think I am going to spring for the L4240. It may be a bit more tractor than I need, but I think it is a good deal. L4240, HST+, foldable ROPS, 64 demo hours, R4 tires, loader with QA bucket, $22,900 (0% tax, 48 months at 0% financing). I was looking at an L3400 for around $19,500, but...

While operating my L4240 HST this past weekend, a problem developed with the H-DS shifting. In the morning when the tractor was first started, I could shift the H-DS lever from high to low with no problem. Then after an hour or so, when I would put the H-DS lever to high it would go right back...

Though the maintenance does not call for an oil change until 200 hours mine was looking pretty dark. I decided it was a beautiful afternoon and I'd change it. I opened the two oil drain plugs, drained the oil. I then replaced the filter. I saw what appeared to be a place to put oil in the...

About to pull the trigger on a new tractor. Initially was looking at an L3400, but after reading this board and talking to everyone I could think of, I convinced myself (and my wife) that I'd never regret the extra power. Local dealer has a L4240 GST that he's selling cheaper than a L4400 HST...

Wondering about your preference between these two tractors. The Kioti is a little less expensive (approx. $3K). Thanks

local dealer only has 3540 cab in stock, quoted around 30000 for 43 horse model, sound pretty close? Thanks Tom

Maybe I !need to eat more. But now having a bit more seat time on the L I have found a few quirks. Today I got in a bind and needed to lock the dif, when I step on the lock my butt lifts off the seat and when I press the HST pedal the tractor kills. Trying to balance everything proves near...

Well I received an email from a fellow member asking to see the in-cab mirror I planted in the beast last night so I'll attach a picture of that along with a few hooks I mounted on the bucket. I also removed the ugly rear round top cab lights and replaced them with ugly round LED lights.:D...

Well, I did it. After reading lots of threads on this website, and explaining (for a few weeks) to my wife why I had to move up from buying an L3400, I took the plunge. I think she was worn out from all the hours I'd spent "researching", and just wanted me to get the #@%$&! thing! I learned a...

Are these prices about right? L3940HSTC (cab & air), R4 tires -$24,000.00 LA724 Fel, quick coupler, standard bucket - $3995.00 Heavy duty bucket, which I think we want - +$329.00 for a total of $28,324.00 L4240HSTC (cab/air), R4 tires - $25,350.00 Quote came priced with LA724 Fel so I don't...

First, I'd like to say that both my wife and I think this is a great forum and we respect the fact so many of you can take the time to provide opinions and feedback to even the novices (which a lot of us are!) We are about to take the plunge and buy our first tractor, so we are quickly trying to...

Hello to all, This my first post and please forgive me if this topic has been discussed before. I want a tractor to replace one that a relative has let me borrow many times. It is a NH 1920 with a Woods FEL and boxblade. Great tractor imho. But I want my own. At first I had my mind set on a...

I'm looking at these two tractors and would like to get your opinions about them. I've been looking at 40hp class tractors and decided on these 44's because of the stronger loaders they can handle. I have 13 acres that will eventually be a working pecan grove, but I'll need to disk and drap...

A picture says a thousand words so it goes....

I just placed my order with my local dealer for a new Kubota L4240 HST+ ROPs, LA854 loader w/HD bucket, and the third hydraulic remote to the front loader for a grapple. The price is delivered. The hydraulic remote has to be ordered from the Kubota warehouse in Dallas, so it will take a few...

I've gotten quotes on these two new HST Kubotas, both with the LA854 loader, filled R-4 tires and the third hydraulic remote to the front loader. Price includes shipment to my placement of $300 from Colorado which allows me to avoid state sales tax. The L4740 is quoted at $28,250 and the L4240...

Picked it up today. Third valve on the FEL (with quick attach) will be very handy for a 4 in 1 bucket or grapple in the future. The first job was to move an old station wagon out of a low area in case of flooding. I can't wait until my T-6 Harley Rake gets here to start making some money.

At the 'bota dealer today getting my new zg23 tweaked up for spring and test drove the new L4240 hydro 4x4 tractor with R4's. it is a thing of beauty. every control is right where you would want it to be. Now I have a L4200 GST and have never been a fan of hydro tractors but i am sold on this...

I was talking to a dealer today and he told me that the L4240, L4740 with a cab will only come with the HSTP transmission. He said, Kubota will not be putting any of the GST transmission with the cab option. I find this hard to believe since the GST is great transmission. Besides why would...
