    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    A couple of things I can suggest. Check on insurance cost and cost of registration. My truck is insured through Farm Bureau and I get a good rate because all of my insurance is bundled through Farm Bureau. No auto insurance company would issue a policy because it is a commercial vehicle...

    In search of a better truck for towing the M6060 and folding cutter.

    I like the F-650 buy idea. It wont be fast but will be very safe, capable and simpler to maintain than the newer stuff. I drove a roll back F-650 tow truck with the Cummins and an Allison automatic. That tow truck started life as a box truck and at 140k miles the roll back bed was installed...

    Grapple width for LX4020, 56" or 66"?

    I would get the larger one because it will be a little wider than the front tire total width. I like having the grapple clear debris ahead of the tires. I have a 64" on my tractor.

    Question about towing

    I have been a fan of B&W products for over 20 years. I remember reading this about the company. NBC Nightly News, March 16, 2009. The evening prime time newscast features a story about a business which was hit by the economic downturn – but instead of laying off employees, it kept them on the...

    Inflate rear tire with glycol

    With tire jacked up off the ground and valve stem at 12 o clock you should not have a solid stream of liquid coming out of the valve stem. If you do, remove the shrader valve from the valve stem and drain the liquid until it stops coming out of the valve stem. Reinstall the shraeder valve and...

    RTV X1100 fuel problem?

    Follow up post. I have been adding This to my fuel tank the last few tank fills. I didn't see any evidence of a fuel quality problem in the fuel filter but I thought why not try the Power Service product and see what happens. The RTV is now running great!

    Chevron Delo 5W-40, $8.95

    It is now at $ 16.95, still a good price. When i picked up my online oil order, I asked the store manager if they could order me a few cases at that same price per gallon. He said sure if I paid for them in full. The oil should come in 12/16.

    RTV X1100 fuel problem?

    My machine has an intermittent fuel related problem. Climbing hills at full throttle the engine will occasionally stumble and try to die. If you back off the throttle you can usually keep the machine running. Sometimes we can go weeks without the problem showing up and other times it happens...

    ZD21 blade not cutting under load

    I have had this happen on my ZD 323 when using non OEM blades. For example, Oregon G-5 blades are thinner then the OEM blades and the clamping force of the cupped washers is reduced. The bolt will torque to the correct value. The fix is make sure blades are the same thickness as OEM blades.

    Pros and cons to Kubota 0 turn mowers

    I have a ZD323-60 purchased in 2009 with 1600hrs. I agree with the Mikesters comments. I have had to replace deck gearbox and spindles at 1200 hrs. Also replaced dynamo at 1500hrs. I mow in a very dusty environment and this dust contributed to the spindle and dynamo failures. I have had...

    L4060 3rd function. Which kit do you recommend?

    I have the Kubota 3rd function kit. I hate the hose routing under the tractor and how vulnerable to damage the valve and hoses are. I purchased a protective plate for the valve but nothing is available for the hoses. W.R. Long was a tractor manufacture for many years. You still see Long tractors...
