Leinbach/Kubota compatability?

[Tom_H]

I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but it sounds like the PHD itself, with the auger off, would fit on the 3ph with no problem, and that the problem is just the length of the auger. If this is the case, how about just swapping for (or buying) a shorter auger, rather than the entire unit? BTW, how long is the auger?

kentrodngun,

If you look at what appears to be a Rops crossbar behind the seat in the picture, that is approximately where my link pin mount would be( in physical distance, not in actual placement on the tractor). And yes I tried every possible configuration without success.
Used every hole on every mount.
As said if when the PHD was in the correct position to hang the auger 1" above ground and the lift arms at max were 6" short of the pins on the yoke, does not seem to be a possibility of this working.
thanks

Tom,

I had to lift my lift arms 3/4's of the way up to conect. there was then almost nothing left to lift. As well the lift was the notchy and bound up with certain configurations. I believe that the geometry was incorrect for the physical setup of this tractor.

I was just on thesmartfarmer. According to the blog, the 7300 has a different shaped U piece to accommodate the 3PH on older tractors. They recommend the 7200 for modern CUTs

Note: the Leinbach entry in the blog is down the page some.

WWR,
I know you've already returned the unit but there is/was a solution. When I bought my Leinbach PHD the dealer gave me two yokes ("U" shaped piece) one being longer than the other. Told me to return the one that would not work with my tractor (Kubota L3000DT). I ended up having to use the longer of the two to lift the unit high enough to attach the auger. I've had the PHD for about 4 years now with a couple of different auger bits and no issues at all.
