New Owner - Old Kubota - Over My Freakin' Head

[boozaro]

Good afternoon all-

Just purchased a 2002 Kubota L3710 with LA681 Loader, L1743A Bucket, K9048 Pallet Forks, BL 4690-1 Backhoe w/12" Bucket and L2052-1 Front Snowblower. The snowblower was our primary interest, but there will be lots of use for the Great Pumpkin, as I refer to it, around the property. So far, it's been pretty reliable with a few hiccups. I sure as heck hope I can get some help on this site cause I, as my title indicated, am way over my head :confused2:. I'm a retired fireman, so I'm not afraid to get dirty and take things apart. Which pretty much means I am really good at getting myself deep, deep into trouble. Which brings me back to this site.

I look forward to getting this beast rockin and rollin. I'm sure I am going to have a ton of questions, and I also hope to provide some answers along the way.

Thanks for the add.

Kind regards,

Scott

Scott - welcome to TBN and the forum. ALWAYS room for another "dry side" Washingtonian. Wow - you sort of live right in the middle of some of the biggest wildfire areas in the state.

By the Way - very nice looking tractor. Impressive list of implements also.

That's a pretty reliable machine. I would be surprised if you get to many problems that can't be fixed with a can of WD 40 and a wrench

Nice machine;I would try to get a shop manual if it was mine.

Thanks for the welcomes, gents. I am looking forward to putting the Great Pumpkin to good use over the years. We got it at an auction in Utah. It was used by the Forestry Dept. Good records. And a shop manual - thanks nybirdman. I'm sure I will quickly learn the value of this.

Thanks again. Happy New Year to all.

Wow, great find. And welcome. Can you describe the property and the projects you want to tackle? The long-time members here love to tackle projects 'hypothetically' - they are a great resource and a huge bunch of ingenious souls. Work smarter not harder.
