New Kubota U27-4

[snowninja]

Bought this 2023 U27 in Oct 23 primarily for home projects, we live in a canyon with some steep slopes so terracing is the only way to get some flat space. I have built trails, dug trenches, cleared a pond, made a nice backdrop for shooting range, cleared ditches, replaced culverts, and soon will start moving dirt for a shop pad and redo the back yard. diggers are a game changer and am super happy with it so far. Current mods include walking pedals and a bt stereo to keep the good times rolling...

I have the same machine. Little bugger is strong. I'd like to know its limitation on climbing grades. I got a steep hill that leads to another section of my property, but I haven't taken it down yet for fear it won't climb back up.

I have some steep slopes too but they are all uphill from where I store my digger. 20% slope probably, I think it will get there, why not try it, the bucket could help if needed.

Tell me about the walking pedals mod. Easy? Where I get them?

if it won't climb it with the tracks you can you use the boom to pull yourself up in combination with the tracks.

Kinda hard to do when your hands are needed for the track sticks, no foot pedals

I don't know about your machine, but on mine I can push my feet against the sticks at the base to make it drive forward. Try it next time your on your machine, I have done this a couple times for some reason lol.

yea, I could probably do that or figure something out. That's why I asked the OP where he got his foot pedals.
