    wood chipper feed roller

    I would recommend Dual powered infeed rollers which grab and pull material into the chipper head using two powerful hydraulic motors. These motors are powered by the chipper’s self-contained hydraulic pump and tank. you will find This feature on WoodMaxx WM-8H and their higher end models. I run...

    Pricing increases in the supply chain and the doubling of shipping costs are certainly impacting everything. 6% may be understandable but 9% seems a little off the charts. It was not long ago that I purchased my Kubota excavator as Kubota gave Covid cash to assist non moving inventory in the...

    Do I need more horse power?

    Moving from an L2501 to a L3901 will give you another 50% power over what you currently have. I would not worry about the DPF. The extra power is significant and you will definitely notice the difference in hill travel and cutting speed. I would comment that you should stay with a 60” rotary...

    WTB - R1 Ag Wheel & Tire Set to fit L2501 / L3301 / L3901

    I know a lot of people change their tires and wheels, I'm interested in buying a set of R1 Ag wheel & tires. Based on my operator manual they state that the following sizes are used: Front - 7.2-16 Rear - 11.2-24 It appears that the same size is used on the L2501 / L3301 & L3901. I'm looking...

    anyone used the land pride SA20-03 skidsteer post hole digger on a Kubota BX23S?

    I don’t want to be the negative guy here but my experience in running anything at minimum hydraulic flow rate is that performance is seriously less than satisfactory. Will it work, sure just not as intended. My experience mainly comes from running attachments on my track loader that has high...

    5740 vs 5040

    It’s about how the manufacturer issues the engine control package and tuning of the engine. This is common in many industries. You will read many posts about how people get much more power from their basic rated engine such as the L2501

    Accident To Share

    There are no ongoing charges for these rescue beacons, you do have to register with a government department and provide a number of contacts. My understanding is that these signals are relayed through military systems to rescue resources and provide very accurate location details. The penalty...

    Accident To Share

    There are a lot of good posts here we can always learn from each other. I operate a lot of equipment, fell a lot of large trees and do many things on my own quite often in a large remote heavy woodland area. One of my key concerns is cell coverage and the ability to operate your phone if you are...

    L2501 3PH stabilizer problem

    I fitted the optional telescopic stabilizers to my L3200 with R1 and my L3901 with R3 turfs, I’ve had no issue with attachments and love the telescopic stabilizers. based on the photos it looks like the R14 tires and rims create the issue. I would fit 2-3” wheel spacers and keep the telescopic...

    Replacing hydraulic fluid on an L3901 HST

    I use a long neck flexible funnel supported by a piece of 2x4 with a v cut in the end so it holds the bowl of the funnel in place, slow and careful is required. Sure don’t want to waste too much of the liquid gold …lol

    This should be interesting next growing season. Six foot Landpride cutter

    I agree with SDT it is a little wider than typically recommended for your tractor. You may be a little light on rear pto horse power but the reality is try it and see how it performs for your use, if you don’t find it to be great it will be easy to sell or swap for a 60” model. I own both a 60”...

    Front backhoe usefulness?

    Richard, im sure a fronthoe will mount on your MX and it will work but not sure it is a wise or great long term solution. as you mentioned a lot of moving the tractor around and it would be very difficult to see what you are doing. I own an MX, a track loader and an excavator, they are all...

    Is my Flail Mower too big for my 'new' Kubota B7001 / B7100?

    2nd comments from SDT. You will not be happy due to the lack of power giving you overall performance issues. I'm sure you can mount it and it will operate, it will just not run like it is supposed to.

    Cat 1 rcr 1872 ?

    For attachments that I am only going to use with my MX5800 I will swap out the pins to Cat 2, then you don't have to be searching or dealing with spacers over the years. Many attachments have both Cat 1 and Cat 2 connections and use stepped pins, love those. I still have several sets of sleeves...
