^That's kind of what I've been thinking and the reason behind my wanting to know details about what the OP was doing that might have caused this...

Is this a LA535 FEL? Curious what size logs you( @FarmtoLake ) were carrying (i.e length, diamter, species)

Is this unusual? 'lifting a few logs that seem to be no problem', and then a twisted FEL as a result? Is this just a bent bucket, or actually bent loader arms? Whatever the OP did to cause this is something I want to be able to avoid. So what, specifically is the likely root cause? Just...

I've pondered that too. It's not obvious. I keep the saw positioned so it couldn't hit my leg, as long as things go as I plan. I suppose that a human with perfect situaltional awareness wouldn't need chaps. That's not me! I recognize, partucularly when limbing a downed tree on a slope...

Good thread guys. Thanks for the reminder - my chaps have spent a little too much time hanging on the hook instead of me wearing them...

Dang. I post here for the abuse, not forgiveness...

WSM for the B7510 is a little light on detail. I've no idea of the similarity to the B6200.

compressed air?

Nice work. I bet you'll like that grab handle. My B7510 FEL requires that a tranverse member be fitted, and it serves as a great handle when hopping on the tractor: Make sure that bucket plate doesn't interfere with the SSQA mechanism when mounting/dismounting the bucket...

There are plenty of electric vehicles that sell for MORE than $80,000. However, the best-selling vehicle in the world last year was an electric vehicle, and it is priced similarly to its competitor gas models: Tesla Model Y lists for $44k in the US, but many buyers get a fed tax credit...

I suppose your great grandfather said the same about horseless carriages. And yes he was right - look at GM/Ford/Stellantis - no profit, and basically doomed as their market gets taken over by better options.

Dang - I sure wish I'd of been more clueless about finance, physics and manufacturing about 5 years ago:

Might not hit his balls to the wall schedules, but he gets stuff done...

It is gaseous fueled. I see the regulator - so LP or natural gas. If you go look at it, open the control box and look for mouse damage - pretty common. The 15JC sets are super nice. I run a NG-fueled 7.5JB (which is the 2-cylinder little brother) here as my main backup set. Air-cooled, 1800...

Champion - Where are the engines made?

...and if you're NOT using a loader, what pressure would you put in the fronts? BTW, In my case (B7510 w/ 23x8.50x12 fronts) the sidewall MAX is 35 PSI and the chart in the owners manual is exactly the same. IOW, for the FRONTS I run the max sidewall rated pressure. NOT the case for the rears...

Worth noting that the OP asked about the REAR tires, not the front. The answer is 14 psi.

Surely you're not saying that anything less than the tire's MAX PSI rating is considered underinflartion? The OP's question wasn't about 'hurting tires'. It was about the best pressure to run. There is a 'sweet spot' between the tire's MAX, and the best pressure - and wouldn't that be what...

Kubota knows little Diesel engines. Best in class as far as I'm concerned. Generators? Hmm... Condition is everything. Yes - a properly maintained Diesel engine ought to be good for way more than 3k hours. Was it properly maintained? Hard to tell... 20kW seems like overkill. Bigger...

I got the pin engagement dialed in. The levers firmly 'cam over' now and leave the sloped part of the pin engaged with the QA plate. Seems to work. I had some rectangular tubing left over from other projects and fab'd up a protective guard: ...and now that the project is about wrapped up...
