My front hydraulics finally came in for the L39. The dealer took the machine and successfully installed the front hydro connection. -Somehow the fools used an abrasive strap or chain over my left fender and rubbed the paint off in an area that's about the size of my hand. It's nearly down to the steel, but I can't see metal showing. The machine was virtually perfect before the dealer got their grubby paws on it. I can tell by the way they chain things down that they don't have much care for people's equipment....just thow the rusty old chains over the loader arms and crank it down /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif What do you think I should do about this?

From my automotive painting experience there is no way to "touch it up" with spray paint and make it look right. The whole fender needs to be sanded and resprayed.

When I had my B2910 it had about 200 hours on it and the paint on the lower part of the fenders started to come off, and a small section on the hood started to bubble and Kubota replaced all of them. I would complain to the service manager about their poor quality of work. I would request a new fender if I was you.

Lack of respect for other peoples property is one thing that really gets me going. Speak to the owner about it.
