kubota mx4800

Newbie here... first time to own a tractor and/or any implements. Just purchased a lightly used 2017 Kubota MX4800 4WD & FEL with 450 hours on it. Separately bought a Land Pride RCF2772 rotary cutter that weighs 1072lbs. Is MX4800 strong enough for such a heavy cutter (6') or should I upgrade...

Getting ready to do 400 hour service. Based on suggested parts (only filters and oil) and looking at parts lists, I see no pickup screen. Correct? I'd hate to have to drain 12 gallons of UDT2 if I'm wrong. Pretty sure I'm right.

I was bush hogging and thought I smelled coolant, looked at the gauge and it was in the middle of the dial, steered out of the high grass to take a look and before I stopped the engine died. When it died I looked at the gauge again, still in the middle. I found steam slowly coming from a small...

im shopping for a tractor i sold my L4400 last year. been youtubing and web searching after owning a kubota i thought i would never change color. but with def emissions kind of made me take a look at the mahindra line the 3650 jumped out right away looking beefier than kubota. seeing 3650 had...

Hello, This is my first post. And this would be my first ever tractor purchase. I am hoping to get some advice on my selection. I've read threads like this before, and responders often ask for more detail on proposed use. So, I'll try to be descriptive, at the risk of being verbose 8^) We...

DIY Third function for Kubota MX4800. Firstly, a couple of acknowledgements. Brian (MountViewRanch) @ Fit Rite Hydraulics for comments regarding flow rate of fittings I intended to use. LD1 for general knowledge and MX knowledge in particular. "Dave Knows How" on youtube who has an...

Advice Please. I have to ask. How is getting in and out of the L3901? My wife and I found it really awkward getting in and out of the gear drive L3901. Is that something we'll get used too or am I going to feel like I'm going to fall every time. We found it much easier to get in and out of...

I've been reading everything I can on a roll your own solution for a 3rd function and am ready to commit to fabrication. The MX4800 has a flow rate of just under 10 gpm, so the commonly used Northman electric spool valve on a D03 plate seems to work here. (Northman SWH-G02-C6-D12-10) I'd...

I've had my MX4800 with backhoe for a few months and just got my first 3pt impliment. An 8 ft box blade. Thus, the 3pt hardware has never been installed until now. The right lift arm interferes with the backhoe supply hoses. There is no adjustment in the bracket mounting and it's too rigid to...

Excited to have just purchased a brand new MX4800 HST 4x4, even though I can't pick it up until July 3. Dealer needs to install loader, load tires, etc. This tractor is going to join my 2013 B2920 and 2002 L4310 which have both given excellent service. Does the MX4800 have an identical engine...

What are the main differences in these two tractors? Which loaders can they handle?

New to tractors I just ordered an MX4800. The sales Lady told me it would be a Great fit for what I need it for. Mostly loader and Backhoe use with very little PTO demand. My question is what is the main difference between the MX4800 and the MX5800 if you are not seeking HP for the PTO. This...

Dealer says a small hose split, allowing all the water/coolant to leak out. Tractor never steamed or smoked. No "running hot" symptoms whatsoever. No light or gauge warning. We thought it was fuel starved, suspected water/trash in the fuel, because that was what the symptoms were like...

Started building a brush guard for my tractor tonight, gonna be put on hold now for a few days because my loader is coming in tomorrow and it's gonna take priority. Still need to gather some springs and roll pins to fab up a spring pin latch and figure out what size expanded I'm going to use on it.

My 3pt lever seems to have become real stiff in the last day or so wondering if anybody has any idea what could cause it. Looked for bent linkage or something but it attaches directly to a shaft that goes straight into the transmission so there is nothing to check it's almost gotta be internal.

Have looked and compared tractors for 6 months and finally come down to 2. Both are 30K with grapple installed. Kubota has more hp by 5 but the JD has twice the warranty (6 years) and no interest for 5 years. I have driven them both and both are very capable machines. Can you help, this is my...

I have finally destroyed the cheesy turn buckles on my MX4800 and I want to upgrade to the telescopic end links and tube sway adjustment. Anyone know how much the kit should run through my dealer?

Is it possible to add a remote kit to my tractor without buying it through Kubota as in an aftermarket kit? I regret not getting it now but it was a 900$ option and at the time I couldn't see it need now I have tons of ideas.

Can anyone tell me if there is a standard Wix filter number for my MX4800?

Anyone know where the kill switch for the HST pedal is? The one that when paired with the seat or PTO switch then kills the engine. I looked for a pressure switch on the HST pedal linkage but there is nothing there. Is it in the ECU? Thanks.

My first significant mod to this tractor (other than cracking the grill screen but I don't think that counts). I removed the tiny plastic toolbox that comes on the tractor (as well as the traffic triangle mounting bracket) and replaced it with a bigger, good quality steel box. I sprayed the...

Anyone have any experience on jobs a MX5200 can handle that a MX4800 cannot? I'm seeing a price gap that makes me think I could get by with a MX4800 instead of the MX5200. I will be getting one with a loader + 4WD, will be mowing about 40 acres with 6ft shredder, planting 2-5 acres of food...
