    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Finished leaves and flipped pusher edge (rubber). Thought I’d clean and wax while I had easy access. Oh, moved the golf cart into storage - you gotta love a FEL 😊

    Are Kioti tractors really a better value on paper compared to Kubota?

    As far as lift range on the FEL the Kioti looks like the pins are closer to the machine. Seems like Kubota is about the only one that pushes them out farther maybe giving you better stability at high heights?

    Replacing hydraulic hoses on BT601 Backhoe

    There’s several very knowledgeable members here that professionally worked on Kubotas. Maybe @TheOldHokie will chime in and others. I have the BH92 but like you, I’d be lost trying to take hoses off.Good luck.

    Titan dump 30 cu ft box aint bad

    Yes, you have to definitely keep a close eye and no tight turns. I wonder if there’s a drawbar extension out there? Something that would pin to two holes. I guess I could just buy another drawbar and pin it to the one that’s attached to trailer?

    Titan dump 30 cu ft box aint bad

    This 2 axle 5x10 works great. This is a pic from a couple years ago, I now take off ballast and use the drawbar. Using 3PH with dump trailer can get sketchy if you don’t chain down the lift arms, @mxmci taught me that 👍

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I’ve got to get my fiberglass truck cap off, it’s a short bed. I wonder if anyone has tried that with forks?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Ended up tilling 3 fields on Wednesday and dragging them Thursday, that’s about best I could do with equipment I have. They’ve asked if I’ll till in more dust if they can get it this year, not sure I’m in for that after spending 2 days chiseling caked dust from tiller. Pry bar and mall worked...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Took the BH92 off and installed the 3PH stuff. Kind of a PITA but I only do it 1X a year. Heading out tomorrow to rototill 3 softball infields. Weeds took over and I’ve had good luck with beaches so I was asked to try on infields. Adjusted tiller shoes to shallowest dig, marked any buried base...

    Getting Old and Back Issues

    A couple things help me manage my sciatica. Moved my wallet to my front pocket, amazing how that helped. Walk 30 minutes a day on treadmill. Oh, my wife’s a retired massage therapist and a good glute and upper leg massage on the pain side is amazing! When she was actively working most of our...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Remove the old hot tub day! Kind of crowded with gazebo and deck built on two sides of it + decorative fence. Sure do like having the BH92 and thumb (please don’t hate me 😳) was able to break off pieces and pull the tub away from deck so I can remove sides. Wish I could have gotten the dump...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    What I really like about this site is all the knowledge and if someone sees something wrong in your post, they respectfully let you know (well maybe @SidecarFlip was an exception). Thanks @lynnmor for questioning the bolt length in post 19,502. I got ahold of parts schematic and used sharpie to...

    Small beach maintenance machine?

    Get a tiller and use that. I do a beach for neighbors every year and they are very satisfied with the results.

    Buying a Kubota

    Oh you’re going to get all kinds of questions 😱 Let’s start with - are you sure you want a belly mower? If you want to lift and move 1,000 lbs comfortably I don’t think you’ll find a machine that would include a belly mower. Maybe a large B series or an L series? Those with applicable...

    If your dog wants to see what's going on

    He passed away last December 16th and I sure miss his “interference” in all my projects :)

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    OEM calls for same bolts both sides and this side has an extra piece in it. They protrude on the other side so I’m assuming it was a cost consideration to use them for either side?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    So every year I check torque on BH subframe before installing the BH92. This year (I’m really late) I stripped a bolt just like last year, like WTF 😬. The Mrs says did you check the manual? Yes, please get me a beer (note to self - dumb request!). I pull up the WSM and the torque says 275lbs...
