    SVL75-2 hard start

    How cold was it in the shop? Sit how long? I just put a battery maintainer on my stuff once a month for a few days if it sits for that long.

    Help me decide

    The lighter the machine, the harder it is to get a full bucket of material in general. The tooth bar is nice for really digging into the ground. If you are removing shrubby materials in the woods or really need the bucket to bite into the ground they are great. Wear bar? IMO not worth the...

    Help me decide

    Rumor is Yanmar may be getting out of the tractor business. I would not recommend buying one until that is finalized. Stump bucket on a machine that light is a bad idea. You will probably tear your FEL up. Snow removal - good thoughts there...try the bucket first. A rear blade can also...

    Best stuff to fill B26 tires with

    Never foam tractor tires unless you have no other option. Rough ride! I used my M62 a bunch with the backhoe OFF...so ballasted rear tires made sense. I used Rimguard as we are in the mountains/cold climate. I also have it in my L6060. No issues so far. If you are using your B26 with...

    Very disappointed with my LX 2610

    That is exactly the news we all want to hear. Just in time for the holidays and snow! Glad it worked out. Glad Kubota stood behind their product.

    Who's Using a Trickle Charger / Battery Tender?

    If I am not going to run a machine for a week, I will put a tender on it for a few days.

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    Really it just makes you want to order stuff online and skip the store. They are shooting themselves in the foot.

    Sometimes you just have to say it...

    I am beyond tired of these supermarkets and big box stores gutting their front end staff and relying on customers for checkout. I am with D2Cat...if they are going to be stingy up front and I am checking myself out you can bet I am not standing in another line to have my receipt verified. They...

    Buying a 2016 M7040

    T4 Final was 2014, so I do not think Kubota could have manufactured a 7040 after that time. To be sure have them take a picture of the serial # and send it to you. You can call Kubota and verify. https://www.kubotausa.com/contact/faq/what-year-was-my-kubota-manufactured

    Cold starts: what is your preferred RPM setting??

    Glow on the L60 is automatic. Turn the key let the glow go out then start. Never had an issue with any of my last 2 Kubotas doing this . I let it idle to warm. I also use block heater when its less than 15 out. I do have battery maintainer on it during the winter as well. We hit -7 night...

    Deene Kubota: If It's Not the Most Highly Rated Kubota Dealership I'd Be Surprised

    I have been into that store myself. Nice establishment. Bought a QH15 for our tractor. I also use Athens Kubota, and they are fantastic. We bought our M7060 from Athens.

    OK gear heads

    Yes you need to trade it in for a 1970s model if you want to avoid that! I have a 2018 and honestly I have been thinking hard about that lately. It sure would be nice to have a simple machine I can repair myself.

    Same for me. Buy once, they last a lifetime.
