    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Yesterday I got the last coat of orange on the rear fenders, and today I've got them both installed along with the turn signal lights. Also have started working on my 48 inch brush hog, what a debacle. You can read about that here...

    48 inch brush hog blade removal

    Well I'm trying to work on my brush hog, the blades are like butter knives but not the butter knife part but the handle part they are so rounded it's pathetic. I've been trying to get these two nuts loose for 2 days, at this point I'm just glad I've got the two blades to actually rotate 360...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Got a plastic battery tray and modified it to be used as a battery tray liner, to protect the metal battery tray I had to fabricate. Was a tight fit, but it fit. Also finally used the tractor to do some work, Moved a 20' x 24" culvert from down by the road to behind the shop, and moved a 4' x...

    Please help

    So do you have a fix for the hour meter that don't move but the tach works just fine on my L1500? And unfortunately that part is not even available anymore even if I wanted to spend the ridiculous amount of money. I could probably find one at a bone yard though. I had it all apart cleaned the...

    L1500 DT Front Wheel Angle

    Is this normal...... I have gatherd a lot of photos from the web for this project, but I do not have any of a DT straight on. I know (think) this is a King Pin front end, wondering if there is an adjustment, or if this is normal with out a FEL "load" on it? Just wondering, they are both...

    Probably the tach itself, pull the cable off the tachometer end you should be able to see if it is spinning freely and continuously.

    Mystery Fender Hole

    My L1500DT has a single hole on the Right Rear Fender that I can not determine what it is for? It is a very clean hole and is 12 mm in diameter, I am positive it is factory. My only thought is for the optional work light shown in the wiring diagram. Any thoughts?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Well, a little premature on that statement, Both rear axle seals seem to drip. Cleaned the shop floor and have small drip at each one after two days. Hooked up the brakes, painted the exhaust, installed the front drive shaft, installed all new zerks and greased everything. Rear axle seals...

    FEL Controller Leaking

    Not finding much lower than the 8 GPM, being slightly over double the tractors output, it would not work well based on your response, meaning there would be little control? May have to look into having the old one rebuilt, but parts are not available Great Bend went under years ago.

    FEL Controller Leaking

    Searcing the net this is the best I have found.......... Joe, you will be OK with the pump that's on the tractor. Your L275's factory hydraulic pump chimes out 6.2GPM @1950psi which is more than enough to operate any loader. By comparison, anyone who has a L175, L185, L1500, L1501, L225 or L285...
