    First regen at 16 hrs.

    As mentioned previously, I attempted to do auto regen while idling. I pushed the RPM up until speed increase lamp quit flashing. It failed. After about 5 minutes, parked regen switch started flashing, then I pushed it. Parked regen was then successful. Yep, I would like to avoid parked regen as...

    First regen at 16 hrs.

    According to L3901 operator manual, the dpf clogs up to level 2-1 and the beeper sounds every 5 seconds. At this point, you cannot do auto regen. Also, it is not possible to do parked regen either. You have to wait until level 2-2, when the beeper sounds every 3 seconds to do a parked regen. I...

    First regen at 16 hrs.

    Have had no problems with the auto regen. I was thinking incorrectly that you could initiate parked regen when the regen light first comes on. Not so. You have to wait until DPF gets more clogged up (level 2) to be able to select parked regen. For last regen, was working the tractor, shut it off...

    First regen at 16 hrs.

    So...., is parked regen selectable when the regen light in the meter first comes on? I am hearing not I think from ones that might have a similar setup. Yes, my L3901 has an inhibit switch. It's definitely not seamless, operator input is required.

    First regen at 16 hrs.

    Could you clarify a couple of items? I have an L3901, 50+ hours. My understanding is that parked regen is not directly selectable. You have to inhibit regen while regen light comes on while working and wait for level 2 warning. **OR** Ignore regen light in auto while working until soot level 2...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    There is one on the RH lift arm, a couple of plugs where the zerks should be on the top link. Will try to install a couple of zerks on the top link.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Did the 50 hour maintenance items today. Also lubed the FEL points. Noted that there are no zerk fittings on the rear lift top link, contrary to the owners manual.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Bush hogged a 1.5 acre erosion area between soybean field and road with L3901 and Land Pride 5' bush hog. Most of the time, was in 4th gear. Had to drop down to 3rd in heavy thick grass occasionally. Grass/weeds were about 4' high. Drove over heavy cut grass once in hi-1 (5th). Bush hog does a...

    It’s not a Kubota......

    All you need is a gun turrret mounted on the top. Sweet machine.

    72" brush hog on a L3301

    6' should be OK. If you get into some thick stuff, just drop down a gear.

    L3901 and 7’ box blade

    If the driveway width is 12', then 2 passes with a 6' grader.

    L3901 and 7’ box blade

    Not too heavy. The L3901 has more than enough power to pull it. The tractor weight and traction is not enough, will likely spin out at low depths.

    L3901 and 7’ box blade

    I have an L3901. I think a 6' blade would be Ok for it, considering that you may have to dig deep. 6' would cover the tire marks.

    Kubota L3901 PTO will not engage

    Check your owners manual for clutch linkage adjustment. Should be a required 50 hour maintenance item.

    Break in period

    Yeah I read that too. The first time the tractor had to do a regen, I was prompted to raise the RPM up to near full speed.

    Overheating

    Check coolant level. Hoses pressurized downstream of water pump. Pump good or not? Check thermostat in hot water bath. Replace if necessary. Check air intake for proper airflow. Could exhaust be restricted? Coolant fan sounds defective.

    Regen problem L 3901 anyone ever have this?

    In order for parked regen to work, does it need to be in inhibit mode first? On another note, I watched a video where a guy had a bad parking brake switch, which didn't allow parked regen to work. In the auto industry (retired Engineer here), if the severity of a problem was very high (leaves...

    Regen problem L 3901 anyone ever have this?

    I tried that step yesterday. Auto regen while stationary. Cranked the rpm up to about 2700 to get the rpm light to go off. Regen light still flashing after 20 minutes. Tractor was warmed up prior to this due to working. Auto regen failed, then parking regen light in dash started flashing. Got...
