Duh-OH! Mahindra Max28XL saves Kubota L39

[mike69440]

I must have poor muscle memory. For instance every year I have to practically relearn how to ski. I'm embarrassed at my lack of skill I show when getting back on equipment I have not used all winter. (i.e., my excavator).
After a little seat time I could hand you a beer with my old excavator, barely denting the can. But not today.
My first load of rock I was placing in the L39's bucket did not go so well.
A 250 Lb. or so rock slid over the to of the bucket, getting wedged in the QA levers.

Max28 to the rescue.

Then at the end of the day, I used a the Max28´s loader, a lifting strap, turn buckle, my largest adjustable wrench, and C clamps to tweak the slightly bent QA lever of the L39's loader back almost perfect.

Kubota is no worse for wear other than missing some more orange paint.

Max got it first scratches. Me being vain and a as its new tractor, I touched those up.

Definetly a need for a spare tractor.

Whoever said orange and red don't work well together had no sense of fashion.

Good to see you "working" that tractor.... Looks like you had the right tools for the job. I like to see them used and worked.

For instance -Nothing steams me more than a big jacked-up Mud truck with an owner, who is afraid to get it dirty.

it's like getting a toy- and never using it..... just thinking out loud.


Glad you got your hydraulics in order!!

It's always good to have a spare tractor and a spare chain saw for the times when one or the other gets stuck.
