How many hours on your tractor.

I recently bought a BX24 from a local landscaper with 690 hrs. I changed all the fluids and filters, power washed and waxed the plastic hood and fenders. So far it has been great with no significant operational issues. The bucket edge is worn and slightly pulled down or stretched in the center. I ordered a new bucket edge from Kubota for $51 bucks and will have a local welder cut off the old one and install the new one. After I plan to get a finger bar to help save the edge. There are many after market to choose from.
Must be very careful using reverse, if I let up too quickly on the pedal it almost skids to a stop.
I also need to get a work shop manual as well to see how to adjust the parking brake - It comes down very close to the forward pedal.
And of course I had to get a bigger shed to store the machine. I ordered a 12 to 20 with garage door on one end.
My wife is happy since I use around our property and it keeps me out of the bars. Hopefully my John Deere 318 makes friends with it's new brother.....

The b6100 hst I recently got rid of had 4910 hrs on it when sold and started a ran like a top,would start on the coolest day in winter without being plugged in. My "new" b1750 has about 2300 hrs,I consider it low,as a teen I was running 100 pluss hp farm tractors with around 10,000 hrs daily

L2800, 179 hrs, yr. Is 2010. Bought used 6 months ago, no issues

I have 650 hrs on my B2650, purchased new in 2016. Most of the hours were recorded last year as I was clearing a new 1 acre field and removing lots of (big) rocks, and adding many yards of fill.

I'm sure I got 100% out of the backhoe and FEL. It is an amazing tractor. So far I have replaced one o-ring on the backhoe bucket control.

NBKubota, at 2.5 hrs. per month you should have rented one!!!

49.9 hours on my MX5800 that I purchased new 3 months ago. I'll be completing the 50 hour maintenance this weekend. I've used it run my brush hog, box blade, move dirt with my FEL, move a lot of downed trees with the grapple (had a lot to move here in S. Georgia after hurricane Irma), and even pulled an 18 wheeler hauling a mobile home out of the mud. Thus far, not a single issue. Have kept the FEL greased as recommended and check fluids every use.

That's for sure!! Although it's main use will be starting shortly when that white stuff appears and I have to keep our 1000' driveway clear!

Just turned 55.5, 5 hours after 1st service and so far no leaks, knock on wood. Oil took exactly 4.2 qts. per spec. 10 hours per month so far but like NB the white stuff will increase usage hours, how much depends on severity of Mother Nature. My usage goes in spurts, things come up where you really need a tractor. Had a chance to try the heater and it gets very warm in low 20 degree temps, AC worked good in summer and you do need it with the solar effect on the glass.

My B2650 has 126 trouble free hours. Bought it last January. Only issue is FEL hydraulic hoses were unprotected and rubbing against the loader arm wearing thru the rubber casing. Put some braided hose cover on them before it got too bad. Used Mostly for loader work and box blade maintaining a 3/4 mile gravel private road. Cleared a wooded area and Built a 30x40 pad for a pole barn.

I just got one. I spotted that "wear point" and put a piece of rubber for the hoses to slide on. I thought it was overkill until now...

Got my MX5200 in October. Just getting ready for my 50 hour service. She's been 100% problem free except for a PIA fuel gelling issue (even with winter blend).

The hour meter on the Ford 4000 died at 3000 hours (10 years ago) and she's still going strong!

20.4 on our L3901 no regent yet.

 

[adventure bob]

210 hours this year. Bought new with 3 hrs on it. Nothing on the fault of Kub, dropped a log on it.

 

[MadMax31]

61 hours. Dropped off in my driveway May of 17'.

 

[ItBmine]

Got my 2620 November of 2013. 489 hours so far. Moved just over 330 metric tonnes of pit run gravel with it, made one kilometre of bush road and mows 2 acres all summer and snow removal all winter.

Only issues were one of the bolts that holds the FEL joystick fell out. Put a new one and lock-tite'd both. And the tire sidewalls got some cracks in them, but Carlisle sent me 4 brand tires free of charge.

One of the best things I ever bought.

"newest" tractor (to me) is a mid 70s L175, i'm the second owner. Bought it in november with 1339 and drove it 4 miles home. 15 years ago it had 1280 hours on it..and a radiator repair. Now has 1355 hours on it. Has started every time this winer, all the way to -2F!! Lives in an unheated barn at a friend's horse farm and has no block heater or anything.

My mower is a 3 year old Toro timesaver, with 103 hours on it. I mow 2 acres and pull a trailer now and then.
