I just wanted to let you guys know my first dealing with Kubota was an extremely good one.
My tractor is an old 1993 model L3450. I bought it recently and it had a ROPS but no seatbelt installed. I called Kubota to ask about a seatbelt assembly on that model as I couldn't even see where it would mount to and saw no marks from one previously being installed.
They assured me one was originally in place and asked me not to operate the machine until I had one. After pricing the item I told the guy I would have to wait to get one, but would. He asked me who my local dealer was.
The gentleman from Kubota called me back the next day and told me I would receive a call from the dealer. I received the call a few days later, the dealer asked me to bring the tractor in and that the seatbelt had arrived. After explaining that I didn't really have the money for it at the moment and hadn't ordered it yet, nor did I have a trailer to transport the tractor, he explained that Kubota took care of the part for me. He then checked with his manager and told me I could just come and get the part to install myself.
Many of you probably don't use the seatbelt, but my question to Kubota arose after I hit a hidden stump with my rear tire while brush hogging and thought I had lived my last day.
Sorry for the long post, but Thank You, Kubota for taking care business.
