    Brush guard

    I am looking to do the same on my L2501. Well, maybe not the face. My tractor is 120 miles away and I didn‘t get a chance to look close (used a mirror instead of climbing under). For the bolts holding the grill frame to the tractor frame are the nuts welded to the back plate? In the mirror it...

    Steering Wheel

    I have a L2501. I know the steering wheel location can “float”. Like smittydog27, my suicide knob is almost always at or near the 7o’clock position - where I placed it

    A little farm help!

    I know nothing about goats but he did manage to get the bucket in the building without hitting the sidewalls. Maybe he‘s a keeper.

    The socket size for front axle pivot vent plug on a Kubota L2501 4x4 HST is 9/32 square dive socket

    Most, if not all, bolts, etc. on a Kubota are metric. That plug is a 7mm.

    Bafoon......Me that is!

    Well, I didn’t lose a phone but I was mowing underbrush on a wooded trail. My L2501 was only a few months old. At one point looked back and saw a piece of black plastic between the shredded brush. figured it was just old trash. Finished and shut down the tractor. As I got off I looked down to...

    L2501HST 50Hr Hydraulic Fluid Change?

    I changed it on my L2501 HST at the 50 hour service (49.6 actually). A good side effect, it dampened the engine whine like some others on this forum have said it would. It used to be loud in High (M and L, too) running between fields but now it is only noticeable when you first start rolling at...

    New kubota l2501 delivered with milky transmission fluid

    Looks normal as that’s how mine looked, and looks, before and after I changed the fluid at 50 hours - yes, I know it’s not called for. When the fluid is level in the glass the disk behind the fluid will be a definite white. The disk is giving you the impression it looks milky.

    Fuel Qty issue

    Did you purchase new? If so, did the dealer fill it up? Did you refill it to see just how many gallons you actually put in? If not, how do you know it is less than half a tank? I have the same model tractor. Got it a year ago this past April. It would take more than 3 hours of run time to...

    Diesel Treatment/Algaecide Recommendations

    I use the Power Service gray bottle and the Bio Kleen at each fill up. Doesn’t get cold enough down here that I feel the need for the white bottle - yet.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    May not sound major to some of your projects listed here but ... After a month or so of searching I finally found where the cotter pin goes on my L2501 that I found on my right floorboard. It holds the pin that the seat rotates up and forward on. Been driving me nuts looking at all areas...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    It was yesterday, but performed the 50-hour maintenance on my L2501 HST. Though it doesn***8217;t require it at 50 hours I changed the transmission fluid with SUDT-2. Per directions I did not operate the tractor immediately after changing the fluid and once I did start it I let it idle for a...

    Can you figure this one out? Answer post 12!

    Re: Can you figure this one out? You melted a hole in the lower radiator hose. I see I missed the answer post.

    Mysterious coolant leak, TG1860G

    Are you sure it was coolant (color and/or smell)? Could be water from condensation in the muffler from the last time it was ran. When you started up it blew the water out. Stopped dripping after it either ran out of water or muffler heated up and vaporized any remaining water.

    LA805 Simultaneous Lift and Curl

    I have a L2501 so can***8217;t speak directly to your loader. Based on my ops manual under the image of possible positions (lower left is blank) it states just below the image... NOTE: When the lever is at each corner position marked by asterisk (*) or lower left, boom and bucket cylinders work...

    L2501 HST stalls in high

    Roadworthy beat me to it. Since you mention that it***8217;s like the parking brake is on I will assume you***8217;ve checked that. My next guess as stated above is your brake may not be releasing.

    what tire air pressure ?

    As mentioned above if you have the operators manual the recommended pressure can be found. I took a permanent marker and wrote the psi next to each air valve of each wheel. I also wrote the torque foot pounds next to a bolt on each wheel so I don’t have to look up either when I am doing quick...

    L2501 Cruise Control

    I know this is an old thread but I have the same issue on my L2501 (CC backs off as I drive). I haven’t had a chance to get mine back to dealer. Where are these 3 tension bolts? Are they under the left floor board? Would tightening the locknut on the cruise spring (shown on page 3-S13 of...
