    New M7060 delivered!

    Nice tractor, Houser. I like the M7060. That said, I've been a Ford/Hew Holland/CNH man for nearly 50 years, and the 4630 is a great tractor, if much less modern than your M7060. If FWA (maybe without), a decent 4630 will drag your M7060 into the next county. I made the changeover from...

    M7060 shredder options

    A 7' rotary cutter is not going to hurt your M7060. That said, I am not fond of 7' single-spindle cutters. Such cutters are long and there is considerable weight well back of the lift arms. If you have any steep ground you will need front weights unless you have a mounted FEL. Experience has...

    B9200HST 4WD struggles uphill

    Hydrostatic transmissions are built to very close tolerances and are not tolerant of contaminated or improper oil, clogged filters, screens, etc. Such issues cause wear that is very expensive to repair, often cost prohibitive. You can try thoroughly flushing/draining the oil, cleaning the...

    New OEM Part

    Good point, BAP. I spend lots of money at my local CNH/Kubota dealer and they like me. The parts folks always give me 15% off of list (oils excluded). Most dealers will not do this for most customers but some will if asked, especially if there are other dealers close by. Another hint if one...

    L3540 2009 HST Loosing power after heating up

    Original HST oil at 490 hours?! Why? Hydrostatic transmissions are built to close tolerances and are not tolerant of improper or dirty oil and/or filters. Allowing the oil and/or filters to become contaminated results in very expensive damage. You can try replacing the oil and filters with...

    Yet Another - Which Tractor? B3350 or L3...

    The issue was with the 33/39 HP 4 cylinder diesel engine with DPF. This engine is used in the B3350 (only) and high end front mount commercial mowers. Issues are/were present in all as well as other products made by third parties using this engine. Issues have been sorted out but there are...

    Sharpening Brush Hog

    Unlike most, I keep the blades on all 4 of my rough cut mowers sharp lake a lawn mower. Cut is better, mower takes less HP and tractors use less fuel. Yes, my ground is clean and I do not hit rocks, dirt, etc., or cut saplings. I simply reach under the raised mowers with a 4.5" angle grinder...

    Yet Another - Which Tractor? B3350 or L3...

    I just bought a B3350 (not SU) with lots of options, delivered about 3 weeks ago, and love it. That said, from the limited information provided in your post, I would think that an L series would be more suitable for your purposes. The B3350 is a deluxe model (expensive) well suited to mowing...

    Plow Question...

    A "potato plow" or "middle buster" can be used to dig a modest-sized trench but your expectations must be realistic. Such tools are intended to work in tilled soil. They are not excavation tools. SDT

    Water in rotary cutter gearbox

    Common. The water is from condensation. You can drain it by suspending the mower from a FEL, etc., in a fashion such that the fill plug is at the lowest point. I have a vacuum tank intended to change engine oil in I/O boat engines. It works well to remove MOST of the oil but it is not...

    resale value on blade and snow blower for a BX

    My experience has taught me that you need to price used implements, even if unused, at about 50% of new if you want to move them. Yes, there are the occasional exceptions. Dean

    B3350 Front Weights

    Today I finally mounted the 5' cutter on the B3350 to try it out. (Love it!) As expected, I will need front weights to use it in all the places where I plan to do so. I have a complete set of 5 front weights and the front weight bracket for it (great CL find about a month ago) but have not...

    Buying a B7100

    Mid 1980s vintage. The B7100 is a good tractor but getting old. I'm a bit skeptical of the tires. The pictured tires are not OEM tires for a B7100 and do not look OEM size. I would verify tire size, both F & R. Using non standard tire sizes, if mismatched F/R results in rapid wear of the...

    New toy!!

    Looks a great deal like mine aside from the bucket. Wish I had known about that "cool" cooler. I would have asked for one. FQIW: With a bit of modification, you can install a right fender handle from a smaller L model, e.g., 4700, etc. Doing so makes mounting/dismounting from the right side...

    A Better Seat for a new L series

    The seat and lack of armrests is ONE OF the reasons why I rulled out the 3301/3901 when shopping for a small tractor to operate a 60" rotary cutter. The steering brakes on the same side as the hydro pedal is another. That said, it is likely that a Kubota seat from a B or Grand L model can be...
