aquaforce is correct. Don't use starting fluid in/on/around your Kubota. If you do, you'll truely live up to your OTT name. See the following article that Mr. K and Vic put together: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/2009/02/trouble-starting-your-kubota-skip-the-starting-fluid/[/URL]

Gettyup16, I have a 98 L35 with 920 hrs on the clock and it has always shifted ok. Has this problem just showed up or has it been going on for a while? The fact that it works fine when you put the transmission in neutral has me puzzled. Maybe some of the guys that work on these beasts for a...

E/S, did you try pouring a small amount of water in the hole? I've done that before and using the tractor mounted digger, the wet dirt would stick on the bottom of the auger and leave a pretty clean hole. I also remember seeing a special post hole digger that had the hinge a lot higher on the...

bkusich, What kind of mower are you working on? I'm sure one of us here on OTT has one like it. Mine is a Bush Hog brand and has right handed threads. It has a washer lock (not right name, but what I call it) that you bend up on the side of the nut to lock it in place. Yours may have left...

Hey Guys, there are a bunch of hardcore OTT fans cheering you on. Don't stop now!

SarahJ, Sounds like you have an excellent dealer close by. Let us know if you tackle the job yourself or if you have the dealer fix you tractor. And most of all, please let us know what the problem was. We are also have 100 degree heat and that is a race I don't care to win!

SarahJ, also welcome to OTT. It appers to me that the bearings in that wheel hub are destroyed, probably from lack of lubrication. You can buy new bearings, races (ring that the bearings ride in), and a new outside seal. You may want to check the other side also because they are usually...

My L35 did this once. It turned out to be the ground to the tractor frame was corroded. Cleaned it up and everything went back to normal. Let us know what you find out. Good luck!

Thanks for the update. I was worried he joined Ob1Kubota. I know what he's going through on the Internet being down. Ours was down for almost three weeks. I had to sneak peaks while at work.

Did I miss something - he seem to have disappeared!

jdr, I do not know how much weight your equipment weighs. My advice is to get the largest and longest trailer you can afford. You'll find you will use the trailer for all other things besides hauling your Kubota. My trailer is capable of hauling a lot more than my Kubota and I've used it for...

Welcome to OTT. Could you post a couple of pictures for us to look at? Thanks.

I can't answer your question, but there are guys on OTT that can. They haven't had a chance to respond. A lot of us don't have clue how to fix our orange babies, and don't respond but eagerly wait on those that do.

anti, I have both a box blade and a grading scraper. I use the scraper quite often and almost never use the box blade. There was a thread back a few months ago about this same topic. I posted some pictures showing the use of the scraper. The thread is...

Falk, this is just my opinion, but a tractor with only 60 hours and 1 year old that has pins like yours that are making noise indicates there is a problem with either design, manufacture, or both. My tractor has over 900 hours on it and the FEL has had some serious use and abuse and its pins...

Kelly, I have an L35, which has a mounted backhoe with one seat. When I take the backhoe off and use the 3pt hitch, I have to pull out a lever (it is either out or in - not sure cause I'm at work). After moving the lever, the hitch arms work as designed. They won't work at all if the lever...

gk, check out this thread I mentioned above: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1791

gk, there was another thread on front end weights just a week or two ago. The guys talked about various ideas from concrete to suitcase weights to various shapes and sizes of steel. You definitely need a couple of hundred pounds up front. A good test would be to mount your weight, lift the...

Frank, do you have any quick disconnets? I failed to properly connect one on my L35 by not locking it in place. Everything would go one direction, but not the other. Connecting the quick disconnect properly solved my problem. Hope it is something simple.

02 Ford F250 w/ PS (7.3L) diesel and 20' goose-neck trailer rated at 14,000 lbs. The trailer was sorta custon made - so it got painted Kubota orange. I'll take a picture and post it soon.
