Steering wheel spinner?

[gwstang]

Do you guys use a steering wheel spinner on your Kubota. I have a new L2501 FEL 4x4 and am curious about using one on the L models. I'm wondering if it is worth putting on for bush hogging/finishing mower usage and light disc usage for garden. Thanks.

My M9540 came with one. Didn't think I ever used it until it came loose one day. Turns out I use it a lot and never even noticed.

Yep, all my tractors and mowers have one. Very handy.

Don't scrimp when you buy it. I did and ended up spending twice as much because the cheap-o ones needed to be replaced.

The one I have on the Kubota works ok ... but the clamp part which was chromed has rusted ...

Yes. only use the spinner to steer.

Yes, pretty much if my hand doesn't find the spinner, I have to stop to look down to find it before I can move. They should be standard. No point in running a tractor, especially with a loader, without one. I got the one with the kubota logo in it from Coleman online, IIRC. Works well, I just had to re-tighten it a couple times after install until it stabilized and was good to go for good.

I couldn't use my tractor without the spinner.

Yep, I even added a second as it was a gift. One is great... two don't hurt and work for me.

How else are you going to work the loader with one hand and steer with the other?

 

[gwstang]

Thanks everyone. You cracked me up. I thought one hand was for the cold "beverage" and you have to steer with your knees while using the loader.:crossfingers: Yeah, swmbo has already laughed at me for running into a few "unimportant things" with the loader. Takes some getting use too. :ashamed:
