    Land Pride SGC1060 Hydros pressurizing while of loader

    I have a similar issue and I normally just undo one of the hose connectors to let a little pressure out, it’s a quick 1 minute solution. Not sure if there is another solution

    Basic Tractor Data Chart

    Bruce, thanks for that comment I agree completely you end up looking up individual models but have no where to compare, then you keep going back to look up data when you see all models in a chart you can appreciate key changes and how models line up.

    Installing rear hydraulic remotes

    Just to be clear are you looking for 2 sets of rear remotes? You want to operate 2 different hydraulic functions at one time? I have a MX5800 with a single set or rear remotes that I had the dealer put on when new along with a front 3rd function for grapple use. I wish I had fitted 2 sets of...

    Norfolk Craigslist SSQA Backhoe

    Papaj - As you said this is not for a BX, this is to fit a skid steer or track loader. The operator has a perfect view very close to the mounting plate on a skid stter, I have a Kubota track loader SVL75-2, I run several attachments on the front that are high flow hydraulics and weigh between...

    What does this mean?

    I can decode that one, the correct way it would be said is that he weighs 14 stone. It’s a British thing, a stone is 14 lbs. so if someone says I weight 10 stone 6 it means that they weigh 146 lbs.

    Basic Tractor Data Chart

    PaulL - I think those tractors that you listed are the source of most discussion and things are even more mixed up as they are at very similar price points, it’s hard getting new users to understand capability, weight and other issues. Anyway I hope the chart at least shows key areas where...

    3PH bent? Maybe

    Papaj - it’s good to hear that it was just the right hand height adjustment on your 3pt hitch lift arm. As recommended a hitch plate and large d ring is a good solution for dragging things, the tow hitch frame on the 3pt hitch is a good solution for moving or pulling a trailer subject to the...

    L2350d with loader and backhoe - opinions needed

    Sparky, not so many comments on this. I don’t have personal knowledge of this model but it looks very similar to the spec of the current L2501, based on your plans this model should fit your needs well.

    Basic Tractor Data Chart

    Paull- I see why people have a hard time selecting a smaller tractor as there are so many offerings and configurations, with many overlaps. As a new tractor buyer in this segment with so many attachment options I see why buyers ask for input as they are overwhelmed.

    Basic Tractor Data Chart

    KKK it’s my go to site as well. But I tend to go often and forget much data. It’s nice to see the data side by side as it clearly shows how the product lines relate. I’ll update a version for cab models at some point. Hope it helps new kubota buyers understand the key product data.

    Basic Tractor Data Chart

    I see a lot of posts from first time buyers about different model tractors, I have to admit that it is hard to stay aware of the current models as things are constantly changing. I invested an hour to try to make a rough data sheet for people who may find an overview useful. At this point this...

    overwhelmed by choices, please help

    my comment was based on you clearing 700ft of road, home site and several acre of garden, if this involves significant wood land clearing as you seem to indicate of 10” trees or bigger, this is what I meant about outsourcing that part. Yes a B or L with a backhoe will remove stumps but a large...

    What size backhoe?

    Dippybird, You can also get a frost ripper type attachment for digging stumps & roots, it's a single heavy blade attachment, it makes much less mess than having to use a bucket which requires removal of a lot of dirt. For moving materials use large wide buckets, for trenching use a bucket width...

    overwhelmed by choices, please help

    Based on your initial post you at least need a L series. If you work smart it will do many amazing things for you however it is still a “small” tractor”. From the tasks you are describing of road, house site and garden of several acres, I would strongly recommend that you outsource these...

    Buying a B2301 with attachment and recommendations

    Your uses are mowing and snow removal, I would comment that turf tires are a good solution if your ground is generally flat and you have 4x4. I have an L series with turfs and use it for lawn, snow and woodland / ag use. I’m impressed how turf tires do all round, if you load them even better for...

    Yard Prep?

    Tomrc, You may to consider Everything Attachments for sub soiler, well made and with shear bolt. EA also make a land shark scarifier for breaking up ground, after first year of use you may get away with a tiller to process top soil for planting. Chain drag from TSC does a nice finish and...
