SVL95-2s

[Sean Dunnigan]

Man I’m at my end with this junk!!!
I’ve got 480 hrs on this machine and I’ve worked that many hrs and more repairing one thing or another.
This time my radiator hose got pinched while I was mulching of corse. Drained fluid completely and just shut down. I’m trying to start I found my alternator was locked up from dirt chips ect. It’s toast. Replaced 500$ well starter was still dragging so took it off tested bad replaced 650$ was told to back def filter off turbo machine would crank didn’t happen still on job site 15 days now. Kubota dearlership sent tech out to tell me about my fuel but missed alternator issue. Now won’t communicate with me. This machine is not getting fuel please help
I purchased this machine cash money and I’ve never encountered people that didn’t care about their customer like Kubota. They really don’t care after they get their money at all. I have a business I’m renting a machine from them while mine sits on job site. Not even attempting to offer any help

Thanks. Hope you can get some good advice here.

Edit: As an afterthought, maybe it might have been best to finance the unit and have the required insurance on it? Too late now, I know.

(1) How could a coolant hose get pinched while mulching on a SVL95-2s?
(2) How do you back off a DPF?
(3) Why would you not just blow the dirt out of the alternator?
(4) Where are you not getting fuel? To the separator, filter, or to high-pressure fuel pump?

Getting fuel to the pump. You separate the flange at the turbo or back the def filter away so the motor can breath

I'm a little confused as nothing you've wrote is Kubota, or the machines fault.
Sounds like you've been doing things with it that it wasn't set up to do.

"Getting fuel to the pump. "
If you are not getting fuel to the high-pressure pump, there is either a restriction in the tank, debris in the hose from the tank to the separator, debris in the 90-degree fitting on the separator inlet, a plugged separator filter, a plugged filter on the electric lift pump, a failed electric lift pump or a plugged spin on fuel filter. Make sure the spin-on filter you are using is a 5-micron filter, not an aftermarket 10-micron or more or you will have injector problems.

"You separate the flange at the turbo or back the def filter away so the motor can breath"
Letting the DPF ( Diesel Particulate Filter) breathe is a test that is run with Diagmaster connected while cranking the engine over with the starter. You do not run the engine with the DPF disconnected, that would just be insane.
What made you think you could do this?????

If you are using a mulcher head on any skid steer, you have to clean and blow the coolers and alternator out daily.
