    Raising and lowering the implements

    Doesn't placement of the top link to the tractor also have an effect on that? Hokie appears to have his in the top hole at the tractor.

    Dovetail or Flatbed Trailer?

    For me used friends dove tail for 3 years he was in my deer lease so left it at my house so "we" could manage property with my tractor. I loved it much easier to load. I like his ramps that slid in near the rear on the sides. Borrowed another friends trailer while back no dove tail did not like...

    Tractors an Brush Burn Pits

    I burn a lot, but not in a pit. I stack my debris on level ground and pile it up, mostly brush but do have some trees usually on the bottom. My method for starting is soak toilet paper rolls in a bucket filled with only diesel fuel to act as wicks. place a few in the pile and lite, works great...

    Canopy. Are they good to have or not?

    Mister wandered some of the same things. Not much snow here but hours riding mowing in NC during the summer can get toasty. A thought I had was to take couple hours and fabricate me a plywood canopy, couple 2x4 braces to hold it up and try it out. If satisfied then buy a canopy if not I'm out...

    New to me L3130 - First Order of Business?

    I would give it a good washing and while doing so great time to check for leaks or anything else that might catch your eye that needs addressing. Give the whole tractor a good grease job, at this time you can verify all zerks are taking grease and learn where they are. I'm little OCD so I...

    Watering fields

    While I'm not setup for soaker hoses yet it is in the plan. Huge benefit you only water what you want to. Watering over the top waters everything including between the rows thus encouraging weeds to grow. Soaker hoses also don't wash off anything you may spray and don't wet the leaves of the...

    small garden -- rip then till? (what's a ripper, subsoiler, middle-buster, etc?)

    I have a tater plow that I use for this application. I added about 10 feet to my sides of the garden this fall. I set the plow so it would run about a foot deep. It rolled the grass up and over pretty well, did about 320 feet. I don't have a tiller so then I ran my disk over it several times...

    Another hobby - video cameras in the woods

    Lot here in eastern NC, the other night while dressing some deer we heard 2 packs yelping at each other. I do like to hear them communicate it is cool and little creepy. Some local fire departments still use the sirens to let members know their is a fire call. The high pitch sets them off. You...

    Whoo hoo, Finally got a set of pallet forks for my B2650

    I had a set of forks from an old forklift they recycled at work and finally broke down 2 years ago and bought the back plate from Titan to put them on. Thought I would use them some but not nearly as much as I do. The uses are unlimited. Now they stay on the tractor 75% of the time. Word of...

    Best implement for rutted lawn?

    I second the wait till it dries some and run over edges with tractor. Then if need shovel some topsoil into the areas and pack again. I do the same in my garden the furrows I make are high and disking is a pain so I drive over them several times to pack them then disk. Similar concept to use in...

    Do You Buy Your Grease From Your Kubota Dealer ?

    Used the Lucas Red-N-Tacky for years no problems with it and it is sticky. Live in NC so we get some 100f days and some 10f to 20f days. Last year switched to Amsoil heavy duty with moly and love it. It seems to stay in place better. We have an outdoor show I attend each year and a rep is there...

    Gas station etiquette. Pull through at the island.

    I concur gents. Just last week went to Lowes to pick up lumber. It was raining good, parked in parking lot and loaded up materials I had to return. Noticed truck parked under shelter where you can load with no one around it. Returned my materials waited in line, loaded 10 pieces of OSB waited...

    Need tips for making implement removal easier

    The adjustable side on mine is the right side, loosen nut and adjust. After I hook up the implement I pull on flat ground and adjust the top link for the fron and back leveling depending on what I'm doing. Then I adjust the lift arm so the implement sits level. The nut will loosen up sometimes...

    Need tips for making implement removal easier

    I used blocks for my cutter for years then I switched to round wooden posts to sit it on. Made a world of difference, I can easily move in when a tweak is needed. I keep an old t post laying next to it that I can use for leverage if need be to move it side to side. I have a bungee I use to...

    Price check L3800HST

    While not a L3800, just for a reference to use. Back in 2014 I bought a 2012 L4600DT gear drive with a 178 hours on it for $17,500. It had been barn stored and kept pretty good care of. Location was eastern NC. At that time I was also looking a L3800 before running across the L4600 and the...
