    Baumalight PTO Generator

    I chose a Winco 27KW PTO generator to replace my Winpower 10KW, I kinda like it. A tractor with an electronic governor keeps frequency and voltage right on the initial set point under varing loads.

    Emissions delete kits??

    Thanks for the TSB number, I am not concerned about the issue being covered under warranty, I just want to know if there is a company engineered fix for the problem. I asked my friendly Kubota dealer last week, and they were not aware of any concerns about that problem or bulletins. I will...

    Emissions delete kits??

    What was the fix for the herky jerky motion? I had dealt with that on my B2650 since I bought it in 2019, there was mention of a spring change to the neutral valves, I tried that and it just delayed when the herky jerky motion occured. A couple weeks ago it pissed me off for the last time, I...

    Rear remotes leaking

    My M5-091 uses the break away couplers and they have leaked from new, I replaced one, still leaked. I cut a plastic oil jug to fit under the couplers to act as a catch can, problem solved. The plastic jug just happens to be gray in color a very close match to the Kubota gray. Pioneer couplers...

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    I did look up dynamometer test data I have on a 1997 GMC 6500 with a Cat 3116 rated at 210 Horse Power, corrected rear wheel Horse Power was 191 HP @ 2150 RPM, 557 Ft Lb @1500 RPM. Calculated to flywheel values gives 225 HP and 655 Ft Lb. The moral of the story is that often times these...

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    Interesting! Maybe a chassis/driveline produced by GM. It was just a curiosity thing. What RPM does the engine run at your desired cursing speed? Have a picture of the engine label by chance, more curiosity on my part.

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    Is that truck built by General Motors? Many moons ago, a GM friend/associate of mine told me that the 3116 will only be Original Equipment in a GM built vehicle, some agreement with Caterpiller I was told. I have done dynamometer testing and various repairs on the Cat 3116, I will have to...

    Now there ya go, I love it when a guy does his research by tapping the experts! Out of curiosity, which Caterpiller engine do you have in that old dog?

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    Well, that doesn't seem like a lot of horsepower or a lot of gears, unless the rear axle is a two speed axle. I haven't towed with a truck like that, I will defer to a towing expert, engines I know. One caution with that Cummins ISB engine is injection pump failures, especially if they have...

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    The Cummins B series engine is a tough little power plant. In that model year, I believe it uses an electronic Bosch rotary injection pump and I believe they were rated at 235 HP in the pickups and possibly a little less in a medium duty application.

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    It's not beyond me to do things that aren't supposed to be done! What I really like about my snowblower is, if I get it put on the tractor before snow is predicted for our area, the snow usually goes somewhere else. Those poor folks south of me probably aren't happy!

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    This works pretty darn goodly on gravel. I have wide skid plates on the back side of the blower also.
