    L4610 HST no hydraulic pressure to the loader

    Its a simple hydraulic system. Start by checking pump output. Take the inlet hose off the loader valve and stick it in a bucket. Start the engine and you should get oil flowing into the bucket. Immediately shut the engine off or you will pump all the oil out. If you did not get oil either the...

    Rimguard customer service AWOL?

    In my case the decision was made 30 years ago. At that time the inventor and founder of Rimguard liquid ballast was still tryig to figure out what to do with all the leftovers from his sugar beet processing....

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    L I have no idea what you are describing. Let me make it real simple. As I read the instructions the two kits are installed as shown below. The Landpride kit replaces the pump supply hose - #20 in the diagram The WR Long kit replaces the power beyond hose - #10 in the diagram. Dan

    Snowplow Operation Using Third Function Front End Remotes

    Nice rig snd should work fine with your third function. The crossover relief (AKA cushion valve) is a nice feature and provides breakaway protection to prevent damage if you hit somrthing big or immovable with one end of the plow. The two 3rd function hoses should go to the two "valve" ports...

    Dealer pricing strategies.

    I bought my L3901 in very early 2021 when inventory was extremely scarce. First dealer who I know simply wont deal gave me a quote that was a bit over MSRP. I went to the other side of town and watched as the salesman configured my machine using the Kubota website. He printed out that MSRP...

    Titan Attachments Buyer Beware!

    Thats not "crickets". While they are trying to get you a new cylinder maybe you should have a look at the problem. Seems unlikely "not working" is the cylinder. Dan

    Fireplace insert

    Around here a company wont fill a tank for a new customer without first doing a pressure test. Amerigas and Ferrell are both on my DO NOT CALL list. Dan

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    The WSM has a very good description of the hydrauluc outlet block - see below. The P port feeds the loader valve and the PB port is the return to the 3pt valve. Landpride installs the 3rd function in place of the hose connected to the P port. Thats ahead of the loader valve and a bit unusual...

    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    Actually I am the one with the mistake. 04 = fitting dash size (1/4") N = fitting type NPT FULL DISCLOSURE: I am not privy to the details of Summits part numbering system. My breakdown is deduced from their item description and my experience with other vendors numbering schemes. So take what I...

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    I dont have a BX23s and all I have to go on is the Kubota parts diagrams and hydraulic schematic in the WSM. As I understand them the backhoe valve is connected to the pump and feeds the hydraulic outlet block on the side of the top cover via its PB port. The power beyond port is connected to a...

    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    I applaud and encourage your pursuit of understanding. Here is a fundamental concept that may help you in that pursuit. Pipes hoses, tubes, and fittings are identified by their "nominal size". For pipe and hose thats the internal diameter and for tube its the external diameter. That in and of...

    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    That is the same coupler also listed as "1/4" ISO 7241B coupler with NPT threads" That is the industry standard designation and there is nothing Kubota specific about it. Write that ISO description down with or without the Summit and Kubota part numbers. Any hydraulic supply will know exactly...

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    IMO those WR Long instructions are actually far more understandable than the Landpride instructions. If the hoses in the WR Long kit are the correct length and installed per the instructions I cant see any reason for or any way for them to be hanging out like yours are. Its worth noting the...

    How big a generator do I need to run a Lincoln 220 stick welder.

    You can also use direct burial 3 conductor plus ground cable (URD) in many (most??) localities. Aluminum 2/2/2/4 mobile home feeder (MHF) cable is readily available from places like Lowes and Home Depot and good for 100A service. Unless things have changed since I last did this the minimum...
