    Garden Project (along the driveway)

    I would have give even odds the tractor couldn't handle that bucket of rocks. After losing that bet I would have doubled down you couldn't hook the chain at balance point of that log. :unsure:

    Grass rows, are very annoying how to avoid? Using the MMM.

    Although some will do it, recommendations with too little information usually doesn't solve the problem. I recommend you try various things to gain e xperience with what difference they make. While you shop for more equipment, sharpen the blades. If you aren't certain how blades should be...

    Brake problems

    So am I alone in thinking Kubota Corporation will get this handled pdq if presented written statement by dealer that it's normal? Out of all these times they've had tractor, did mechanic write on service order that brakes aren't supposed to hold in reverse?

    OEM Ignition Switch for ZD326 Worth the Extra $70+?

    All this praise for safety switches and kudus on Kubota for using several on their machines remind me of a thread down the list here called "Brake problem" where the dealer thinks no brakes in one direction meets Kubota's ridged standards.

    F2680 supernatural phenomenon

    Until you said you didn't wipe before re-inserting I was going to suggest looking closer to see if oil has climbed stick by capillary action making stick look same top to end.

    OEM Ignition Switch for ZD326 Worth the Extra $70+?

    If it comes down to the $300 controller, before I bought a new one I'd try the Deox-it on old one. Looking at pictures it appears that housing is sealed. My first attempt would be drill holes in apposing sides to insert straw and spray then blow out with air hose. If that didn't bring it to...

    "Burnishing" your new brakes. WTF......... Now I've heard it all. (I'm raising the Bullsh!t flag)

    "Burnish" is a poor definition for it. Burnish actually describes a condition I would call "glazed" which results from overheating which causes braking power to fade. "Seating" would be more accurate for what happens. What the break-in period accomplishes is getting maximum shoe surface...

    Measure you case and take note of + - post arrangement and buy the largest group size possible. My trailer, 841 Ford, 65 MF, 97 Silverado and boat have group 65 batteries which are 25% larger than factory.

    Punctured rear tire, L-35, thoughts/advice?

    I 3 to 1 prefer patch from inside over plugging. Why can't you take the tire in for repair? If hoe is on it that takes car of jack and surely you can beg,borrow or steal a socket and breakover to remove nuts.

    Kubota M5700 AC Control Blowing Fuses

    You will really be miffed if it turns out those $97 switches were shorting internally causing the problem all along.
