    Wood Chipper max/min for L4701?

    !00% agree on getting one with a bigger opening. Otherwise you will have to cut every kink and Y out of every branch.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Its amazing how many times your head is going to find those mirrors. I'm always thankful that I only put one on and can hop in and out the left side easily. But yes they are needed

    Forum Names and Avatars?

    Mine is because I spend quite a bit of time driving in places where you would think twice about walking

    BX Snow Blower PTO shaft came off while snow blowing.

    Is that a clamping bolt about 2" from the end of the female part? And can it be tightened some more?

    Front Loader stuck

    My loader got stuck up once when I had far too much weight on the 3pt. When I took the weight off the 3pt the loader worked perfectly. Maybe you have too much pressure somewhere else too. Just a thought

    wood chipper feed roller

    I have noticed that problem too. I may do something like that. Thanks for the link to the parts suppliers. I will order a spare set of knives. Mine is a mechanical feed, driven through a gearbox by a belt. There is nothing to really break on them (hopefully) apart from bearings (which are new)...

    wood chipper feed roller

    The guy I bought the machine off gave me the number of the saw maker he uses so I send the knives to him. They come back sharp enough to give you a nasty cut. Ask me how I know that

    wood chipper feed roller

    It's an ancient chineseium model. Was hard worked in a lumber yard before I got it. It has a single mechanical driven feed roller with serrated teeth. There is no adjustment to springs or feed rate. It works good enough for what I need and easily chips up to 4". It's just that it struggles with...

    wood chipper feed roller

    Is it necessary to sharpen the teeth on the feed roller and what is the best method? Works fine with pine but struggles a bit with gripping harder woods

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Used mine as scaffolding. Set myself and the welder on the roof to reach an I-beam. Just beat the rain by minutes

    Clutch stopped working for a while

    Thanks guys. I'll have a look at the adjustment but I think the block sounds like a great idea too

    Clutch stopped working for a while

    I was reversing to hook up the trailer earlier and when I pressed the clutch the tractor kept driving. It happened a couple more times after that but then it just fixed itself. I'm confused. L3450 GST

    Rear Remote - Is there a trick...

    You may have to extend the left arm with the turnbuckle

    The truth about 3-point PTO rear push versus rear pull snow blowers?

    The biggest problem I can see with it is that if you are driving forward blowing with the blower behind you it would be easy to forget yourself for a moment and blow towards a car or window.

    Joystick orientation question

    I have an L3450 and the joystick is straight forward and back and left/right. 12/6 - 9/3. Maybe something got tweaked and can be bent back

    Rear Remote - Is there a trick...

    I find that I have to push them in and then hold the pipe at the back of the coupler to get them out

    Momentarily losing a function

    I have had this happen with a lot of weight on the 3 point. If I let down the 3 point it works as normal. I just assumed it was a pressure thing.

    How good is alternate energy?

    They've been doing some work with wave energy around here. They have found that the more efficient the machine is; the more impact it has on the shoreline. Apparently, the seaweeds and fish that live there need the waves to crash onto the rocks. If the wave energy machine is super efficient then...
