Kubota L4600 HST, 1963 D-4 Dozer
I have nearly 50 hours on my L 4600 HST. I have noticed a couple of things that would make using my Kubota somewhat better in my opinion.

1. The left side shift lever for the transaxle High, Med, Low needs a brace or guard to keep my butt from sliding in the seat to the left side of the tractor and kicking the lever out of the range you put it in. This is especially needed when side sloping with the lever on the down slope side.

2. I have concerns with the exhaust discharging out down below on the left front under the tractor. Easy fire starter with the grass/hay that I have.

3. The parking brake hasn't held since the day I got the tractor. Dealer said he would take care of it on the 50 hour service???

It is a real good tractor.......it gets a lot of use for the rocks that need to be pulled/pushed out of the fields. Hauled some good sized logs up from the draw as well. The GS72 Land Pride mower works super. I still say the Quick Hitch isn't Quick. It's a Rankin and takes almost the same as hooking my 3 pt set up.

The issue that you stated in #3 is important. If it were me, I would have had this matter corrected immediately and not waited. Best wishes.

You are correct! I'm 56 miles from Lewiston, Idaho where I bought it, one way. I have been using the FEL as my brake. I will call the dealer this coming week.

Thanks
