    Front Counterweight Experience?

    I am picking up mt L4701 in a couple weeks and, this weekend, I am buying a 100 gallon Pak-Tank 3-Point PTO driven sprayer. The sprayer will put 800 lbs (potentially) of water plus the weight of the sprayer itself hanging off the back or the tractor. I will have rimguard in the rear tires and...

    Grading Scraper Question

    I am about to take delivery of an L4701 and I've decided to include a grading scraper with the purchase. I am a big fan of the attachment for driveways, parking lots, and leveling befor planting grass. I am wondering if anyone has used one to prep a large field for planting? I have about 4...

    Trying to buy an L4701

    Good news, after showing them three years of mortgage statements with not a single late payment they approved us. Now I have to decide on some of the smaller details like which attachments do I buy so I qualify for the $1000 rebate.

    Trying to buy an L4701

    Finally decided to pull the trigger on an L4701 HST with FEL. I contacted the closest dealer which is about an hour away. I told them that I'd like to make the purchase and would like to apply for financing. A few days later they called and said I was denied financing and would have to pursue...

    Is This A Legal Discussion Here?

    I have been researching a tractor purchase for quite some time now. I have finally decided that the Kubota for me is the L4701. I have to finish my extensive research by looking in to the comparable John Deere and New Holland machines. I am wondering if there is a web site out there that...

    Sucker Stumps Popping Tires

    I am now shopping for a flail mower. There are a couple on eBay that go for ~$1500 or so. I assume these are Chinese made. Anybody have one and can give me feedback? I don't have room in the budget for a Seppi at this point in time.

    Sucker Stumps Popping Tires

    Thanks. I have been pondering a flail mower for a while now. My understanding is you can run them right down to the dirt which would solve my tire popping issue. Do you agree with this?

    Sucker Stumps Popping Tires

    No, they do not have flags. There are thousands of them. I didn't mention this is on a fairly steep hillside and walking with a weed wacker would likely kill the person doing the work (well, it would if it was me.)

    Sucker Stumps Popping Tires

    Recently bought 6 acres. About 4 of it was an apple orchard. Prior to selling the developer pulled all of the apple trees out with an excavator. Now I get little apple tree suckers growing about 2 feet per year. We mowed the property last fall and again this week with a rotary mower (brush hog)...

    Due Diligence Question

    I am very aware of the regen issues that the B3350 has had. My local dealer has been very up front about this and assures me the issues have been solved. At this point I have no reason to doubt them. My choice of the B3350 comes from two primary factors. First, I will by pulling a flail...

    Due Diligence Question

    Thanks for all the input regarding the b3350. I have definitely not made a firm decision but I am leaning that way. I completely understand the dog concern with the b3350 but my local dealer assures me the problem has been solved. I believe this is the right machine for me as I will be using a...

    SU?

    What does SU stand for? I see a B3350 and a B3350 SU on the Kubota web site. I can't figure out the difference.

    Large B vs Smaller L

    I plan to continue doing my finish mowing with a JD riding mower I already own so I don't see the mid mount mower being needed but the ability to run pto driven front mount attachments is appealing, especially a snow blower. I definitely want a rear flail mower for mulching vineyard prunings...
