We have a Kubota L3800 HST on the farm that we use for light work such as road repair and light loader work. We have a Land Pride RCR1274 tiller and use it for our gardens and around the edge of some of our fields. The L3800 handles the tiller very well. Also we use a 60” rear cutter (not...

I also own a BX1860 with a 54" MMM and a FEL. I mow 2 acres in High range and do not have any problem. I also use my loader in high range. My tractor will run warm, but not very often and not touching the red. Maybe 3/4 hot. Did you buy the tractor from a dealer? If it has not been...

If you are looking to put a handle on the right fender of your standard L series tractor (L3200/L3800) then order a right handle for a Grand L series (L3240). The holes in the right fender of the standard L will line up and it will match the left handle.

She has to be confused. The BX2660 has a decal on the hood that reads "xtra power". If the tractor has a loader, the model should be LA243.

The new 2012 full line brochure is out with the new tractors in it. The new M9960 does have a bigger cab, very nice! Also the M135GX has a huge cab now along with some very nice features. Along with the bigger cab, the tractor looks very different. 4 head lights in the grill, sunroof, and...

If I remember correctly, the JD 3038E does not have a quick connect on the loader booms making it very hard to remove. When I use my rotary cutter/tiller/rear blade I will often remove my loader to make the tractor shorter and more maneuverable. Also, I do not like the loader bouncing around...

Analog meters on the older tractors run off the RPM's of the engine. At PTO speed the meter is showing 1 hour for 1 hour of use. If the tractor was only run at half the PTO speed then the meter would show 1 hour for every 2 hours of use. With the new digital hour meters the time starts when...

It also depends what type of attachments you will be needing now and in the future. For example, the L3200 and L3800 do not have a mid PTO option. If you ever plan on using a MMM or front attachments (broom, blower) then you will need to choose the B3200 or Grand L (L3240). Also watch the...

We have an old front mount mower (not orange) at work and use it for the sidewalks. It works good in snow as long as it is not packed. It does clean off snow down to the cement, just add salt and your done. Good luck.

Make sure you are compairing oranges to oranges! The BX1860 is available with or without the loader joystick/control valve. This can make quite a price difference. Also, Kubota had a price increase in Feb. If one dealer had the machine on the lot in Dec and the other dealer recieved his in...

I believe the circle decal that you are looking for is on the left hand side, it reads "PASSED CHIEF INSPECTOR". I do not believe this is available from the dealer. You may have to have a sign shop make you one.

As Kuboman stated, the B3300 is not a grey market. The entire model number is B3300SUHSD and your local Kubota dealer should have no problem looking up any parts for that tractor. For now, though, the part numbers should be as follows for your filters. HH160-32093 (engine) HH167-37710...

You may want to double check the wires on your starter. I believe there is a positive wire bolted and also a wire with a quick connect just behind that. Double check that both are clean and tight. Also, there should be a fuse right at your starter, double check that. Good Luck.

I can relate. I grew up on a small cash crop farm here in MI and live in a small farming community. While loading grain into a truck from a holding bin, my sister-in-law became tangled in the PTO shaft of the unloading auger. She had brought lunch for my brother and was waiting until the...

I am not sure about the quick hitch from Harbor Freight, but mine has an adjustable top link (hook) and that has come in handy since i use different equipment from different manufactures. (ie. Woods, Land Pride, TSC )
