I just bought a 3016 and I am trying to get up to speed on stuff. It is a shuttle shift, 4wd with no loader 500 hrs. I would like to see if I can find an ML115 loader for it but the local dealer is dragging their feet on getting me price and availability.
I also don't have a manual for it. They want $100 for an owner's manual and I have found NO resources for this stuff online. I have no info on fluids and maintenance intervals etc.
I currently have a Kubota B7800 with a loader. I have 44 acres and needed something a little bigger and a backup in case the Kubota needs maintenance or repair. I will probably get an even bigger tractor at some point but good deals sell fast that are not some worn out auction junk. The 3016 is a little bigger and has more capability than my Kubota although it has two less HP. Not getting rid of the Kubota and I can't complain about it at all. No major issues in 500 hrs.
So I paid $11k for the 3016 and the best part was it came with 9 implements. 5 ft, box blade, finish mower, bush hog, grooming rake, disk, cultivator rake, single row turning plow and a middle buster and a post hole digger with 4 inch and 9 inch augers. Most of them are barely used.
Any tips would be appreciated
