    Grapples

    In the photos above my compact grapple is about 21” deep, the longer bottom tine models are typically 34 to 36” deep. In my experience this is already the maximum depth you want on your L2501. Loflin manufacturers grapples for many grapple sellers, that’s why their prices are low, they are the...

    my other grapple is larger to fit a skid steer, 72” wide about 36” deep and 660 lbs, twin lid. I also have a root rake debris type grapple that is more upright and not so deep that is 72” wide, I run them on my track loader and sometimes my MX 5800. the 36” deep grapple on my MX makes for a...

    Grapples

    I own a total of 3 grapples for different types and sizes of machines, 2 of them are much bigger and heavier than I would ever think to put on my L series. When I was looking for my L series I wanted something compact and not too heavy. I was not planning to dig or wrestle tree stumps with this...

    Tar river attachments

    There was no NDA, the MTL CV-60 grapple I purchased was manufactured by a Denton NC fabricator, who seems to make a lot of attachment products for many different US attachment sellers & distributors. To be clear I am in no way linked or affiliated with any of them. As tractor owners we need to...

    Tar river attachments

    After searching for a reasonable weight twin lid compact grapple for my L3901 I settled on a CV-60 model from MTL, I placed my order at Christmas last year for an amazing price of $999 delivered. It turned out that there was an inventory error and I would have to wait for the next batch. I got...

    Tree Puller for a Kubota?

    I have a Titan hydraulic tree puller attachment. I used it on my MX5800 for a year or so but struggled with anything over 4” or so. I later got a track loader and that plucks 4” with ease. I would not consider trying to use this on my L3901, I’d be to concerned with FEL damage. If you are doing...

    MTL Grapple - My Experience

    I ordered a twin lid CV 60 model for my L3901 last Christmas on a special offer of $999 delivered. It took a few months to show up due to inventory error and restocking but what great value. It’s a great pairing for my L3901. I can only say good things about MTL quality and value.

    SVL95-2s hydraulic issue

    I run a high flow 75-2 for various tasks. I have a horizontal disk mulcher that the manufacturer would not give a warranty for unless I used Stucci couplers, I did some reasearch and it seems that Stucci couplers had good high flow performance, I purchased more Stucci couplers for other high...

    Need Flail Mower Recommendations

    I appreciate your comments, I try to give realistic non emotional feedback on the equipment that I buy and use. WoodMaxx is still what I consider to be a premium attachment supplier, I will be using my chipper this weekend on clearing tasks and it will not be long before I’ll be prepping my snow...

    3 pt hitch slow to raise

    If you tighten the valve you can lock the 3pt arms in position, so yes you can impact how they raise

    3 pt hitch slow to raise

    Check if you have a hydraulic flow valve just under the front of your seat, maybe you have tightened it by accident

    Bush Hog for L4060

    Depending on your planned use and type of cutting I would suggest that you are right to be concerned about the cutter weight and the fact that your pto hp is close to the minimum required. your tractor can lift and run the Mx6 but the question is more about is it going to run the cutter well in...

    The new pto buzz saw is a Balfor shark 700, they are made in Italy, many features over the old basic red Woodsman buzz saw, I transported it UpNorth today and unloaded it but did not get a chance to set it up and run it. I'll find time in the next few weeks and will do a full review for those...

    Stump bucket

    One thing I have learned about attachments and implements is that you don't lose a lot of money and sometimes even make a little money when you buy and sell them. So totally understand your comment about renting versus owning something. I have a lot of attachments and they all have their use, if...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    The tiller is a YJR062 Heavy Duty Gear Drive from Everything Attachments, it's done 4 years of work with no issue whatsoever, It's a great match for my L3200 or L3901. I looked around at a number of models but am very happy that this was my final selection. It will be getting quite a bit of use...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Dump trailer is a great piece of equipment, no complaints, I filled it today several times with large rounds from a large fallen tree, I am in awe of what it will carry and love that I don’t have to empty the load other than pull the tilt leaver. I went back and forth on the 6’ or 8’ and on the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    The corn planter is made up of 2 John Deere model 71 units fitted to a newer made 3pt frame. These units have been around for a long time. I have various plates and various sprockets sizes for the planters. They are easy to adjust for different seed sizes and spacing. With the crazy summer rain...
