I just pulled up the L2501 owners manual to check what it says about implement limitations for disc harrows and it says: Width: 60 inches, and weight: 660lbs So I am over shooting this a little. I would be 16 inches over the width and 45 lbs over the weight limit in the owners manual. Im...

Yea the one I'm looking at almost looks identical to this one here, My boss says its never been used. It hads just a little rust on it from sitting outside a little while but it looks essentially brand new. My rear tires are loaded, and I do of course have the loader on the front. The angle...

Wanting to get some thoughts here on something. Ive been looking at disc harrows for my new L2501. I mentioned to my boss at work how I was looking for one and he said "I got one that came with a tractor I bought that I aint gonna use, You can have it" He took me out to look at it. Its a fine...

Hmmm interesting. Im gonna try to put some elbow grease on a wrench and tighten them down more and see if I can stop the seepage. Mine has wear on all 4 of the bolts, and it was there straight off the lot. What I was told was that its possible this wheel is not shipped put on from the factory...

One issue I have noticed with my 2501 now, as Ive been watching it over time, is a VERY slow leak of the front right side axle. You can see just a tiny bit of seepage over time in the little line where the two pieces of metal come together. Im posting a picture I found online that shows the...

Catching up on the last few pages of the thread, as Ive been following trovermans 2501 review since I got mine at about the same time. Just wanted to add a few points regarding some of the issues here 1. One of my rear tires on my L2501 was right near 100% full of water as well when I got the...

So I got the filter Monday and installed it. To elaborate on some of the questions I saw here, the inner filter is, as Wolfman said above, a very fine filter. The walls of the filter arent super thick, but the material is very dense, almost like that of those thick paper work towels you can buy...

I had already thought of this, but I couldnt fathom that this internal filter could have that type of impact. I do plan to keep this in the back of my mind however after I install it to see if I notice anything. I just cant imagine an air filter that is used in other kubota models as standard...

I 100% understand your thought process here. I will be about like you, I suspect 50-100 hours per year I will put on my tractor. My thing is this though - does having the inner filter HURT the tractor in any way? I cant see how it would. Does having the inner filter HELP the tractor in any...

I learned recently that the L2501 does not have the inner air filter that many of the other Kubota models have. I think this also goes for the L3301 and 3901 as well. I read that some folks had ordered it and installed it on their L, so I decided to do the same. It should be on my porch when I...

Regarding the actual grease - I went on a long hunt for the best grease I could find when I got my new L2501. I was not concerned with price, as one tube will likely last several months. I just wanted the highest quality grease. I ended up going with this...

The owners manual on most of the kubota loaders ive seen, and on mine as well, simply states to pump grease until it visibly overflows. Ive been being liberal with my loader. No two "10 hour usage" period is the same. Sometimes I use the loader a ton, sometimes I am not using it at all. If I am...

What the guys say here is very true. Every inch you move further out on the bucket you lose lifting capacity. If for example you go into a pile, and dont fully curl the bucket, so the load is mounded right on the tip of the bucket instead of being rolled back more into the bucket, you lose...

I just wanted to second others here as a brand new L2501 owner. My tractor starts with just a flick of the key, and purrs like a kitten - and it ALWAYS puffs a little black cloud at start. This is entirely normal. If it just continued to throw black smoke while running is when id personally be...

aww i wanted to see the videos but they are gone. Brand new 5 hours on it? and it sounded that bad? I would almost want a different L3301 after that. Who knows what damage may have been done if it had substantial water in the tank in those first hours. I wouldnt feel too good about taking the...

This looks exactly how Id like to do mine. I don't have a welder however so Id prolly have to get someone else to fabricate it. What are you using in terms of paint? I have some of the spray paint that is "Kubota Orange" and it looks perfect and would do the trick, but I wonder how that...

I'm late getting back to my thread here but appreciate all the good replies. I don't think I'm going to mess with anything for now. I was toying with the idea because it seems like a fairly simple adjustment, but It seems the real world results, even if I did bump it a tiny bit isn't going to be...

Appreciate the good reply here and your personal experience. Im not a mechanic and I knew just from my little reading that what dave said above didnt sound right. I work in technology. I remember when I was young everyone telling me computers were complex and I shouldn't mess with them when...

Being a new L2501 owner Ive spent considerable time reading lots of posts both from here and elsewhere, watching videos, and just generally consuming knowledge on my new tractor. One thing Ive come across on several occasions is the issue of Hydraulic pressure, specifically in regards to the FEL...

Thanks for the pictures D2Cat. I love seeing the pictures for ideas. That would be the simplest solution and one I could do myself. I just worry if something like that is not rigid enough? If I push into a pile and a limb lets go and sling shots a little id Like the guard be able to withstand...
