As Dustball said consider hiring someone with an excavator and clean out bucket. You be surprised how fast a qualified operator with a 4' bucket can move, have him throw the material on the road and use you FEL to clean up. You may end up with a nice pile compost /topsoil.

I'd suggest removing the tire and rim, thoroughly wire brush the backside, heating the front and backside of the hub and soaking all 8 with a good quality penetrant, double nut the 5 good ones to see what you're up against, as others have said weld a nut to the 3 broken ones. Take your time...

Nothing gives more joy than having the chance to use my 19/32" socket or wrenches which I purchased in '66. To say lightly used is an understatement.

As always do as you feel is best. I prefer to make a couple of passes with a disc the day before then at first light (low wind and dampness) throw a tire or two with a little diesel and off you go. Use your bucket or grapple to keep tightening the pile.

Good work, by the time you seed it and clean the equipment, another 5-10 must do projects will pop up.

You're going to love that water cooler once hooked up, no cups, ice, spilling etc. I installed low ambient cut outs, so the head pressure doesn't run too low in cold weather. I've got one in the home shop and one in the country and a spare at both locations. Another plus is either you or your...

I'm not familiar with other models, I bought this one, because of the 6-way blade option (and the price was right).

Just purchased a mini excavator, is there a different forum for Kubota excavators? Thanks

I believe you need to get rid of the grass first.

Color code or polarize the connectors

Before closing the trenches, I'd suggest getting the coordinates of all key components for future use.

Don't forget to address the mower spindle and wheel bearings.

How steep? Just climbing or digging while on an incline? You won't know until you try, you can pull yourself up with the bucket, have you blade behind you, going down slide on the bucket, go straight up and down. Wear your seat belt and be careful.

I purchased a Howse 7" landscape rake after hurricane Katrina it worked great for gathering debris getting it close to the fire, then turning the tines around and pushing and lifting into the fire. I also have the guide wheels never use them; the ground needs to be very level.

Disassemble, sandblast, powder coat then rescratch as desired.
