Looking to extend my off grid WiFi on my wooded 50 acre lot to link security/wildlife cameras and gate controller. I have seen the Arystone system advertised claiming up to 2 mile range. Does anyone have this or an equivalent system? I really only need 800ft range and the gate and cameras are...

Tried hooking up new grapple to 3rd function connections ( flat face couplers) on L6060 loader. No joy, The Homestead Implements grapple connections are 1 /2 inch flat face. They do couple to each other just fine.. The 3rd function kit appears to be smaller diameter? It is not a pressure issue...

Ok. I need scientifically minded folks to help with this one. Just cleaning out my car for the annual state required safety inspection. Don't want to embarrass myself with the usual pile of crap, junk, tools, dirty work clothes, etc. that typically accumulate during the year. Resembles a frat...

KX 033-4 mini-ex with rubber tracks 220 hours on it. Right track balks and stops moving going forward (towards blade) . Works fine in reverse. Hydraulic level good. everything else working well. A bit of dried mud on the tracks. Mabye small rocks? Going up to lot to raise that side and see if...

Had a top and tilt added before winter. L6060 with Kubota dealer installation. Top cylinder moves smoothly and slowly enough to make adjustments. Tilt is all or nothing -- sudden jerking movement which over or under shoots where I want it to be. The control lever requires a fair amount of force...

Have a L6060 and a mini ex to feed. Had logging done this winter, so lots of stumping and grading coming up this year. Will rent a real excavator for a week to pull the bigger stumps. So diesel consumption will go up. Have been using 5 gallon "yellow" cans thus far but considering 50-100 gal...

Removed snowblower and subframe today. Tried to reattach loader but could not connect hydraulic lines despite strong effort and appropriate string of profanities. I cycled the loader control with engine off to relieve pressure but no joy. Connectors are clean and collars retract easily. Is it...

I have a KX-033 mini-ex and I'm looking to get a tiltable ditching/grading bucket (36 inches). I stopped by my local Kubota dealer, saw a used compatible bucket sitting in their yard. Eureka, or so I thought. They stated that since it was a Kubota bucket, it was $6200 new and they would have...

Recent logging over winter has left me with stumps and slash to clear as the snow melts. The slash is tangled and somewhat embedded in dirt as the skidders compacted it tight. I have a mini ex for stumps but need advice on best way to clear slash. Thinking root grapple and york rake are the way...

I have the Weatherlink console with the Davis Pro2. It loads via the internal modem to my wifi and then onto weatherlink.com (Davis) for access on the internet. It seems if I want to share with other services (e.g. Wunderground, etc) I have to upgrade for a paid subscription with Weatherlink...

1) Tractor mid point PTO lever will not stay engaged. Have to keep upward pressure on lever and rear pto spins as well. Display shows both engaged wth occasional brief episodes of only mid point pto. 2) Chute deflector works up and down, but the rotation control only works in counterclockwise...

Finally getting around to hooking up the snowblower for the first time (yes, I know, better late than never). Nothing like a 12-14 inch prediction to get one motivated. Models as above. Have reviewed the manual and Messicks and Youtube videos, but none actually show the specific setup that I...

Bought a used 3ph Hurd sander ($600). New ones run in the $3-4K range. Unfortunately, the PTO shaft is too short and is of the old square telescoping tubing style. Also, the sander side of the PTO shaft is permanently affixed with no collar that slides off. Do they make some sort of square...

It's that time of year when I will be installing the subframe and front snowblower on my L6060. Unfortunately, the changeover process is onerous enough that it pretty much precludes using other front implements for the balance of winter. Does anyone have any experience using a SSQA adapter on...

Just got the KX033 200 hour service done at my site. Took tech 2.5 hours, drove 40 minutes to get to me, changed all fluids, filters, checked track tension, and did overall thorough check. In addition, he answered all my many questions. Came to $747.60. Pleasantly surprised. Thinking that that...

Have a L6060 with a front snowblower. Looking for thoughts/recommendations on a rear mounted sander/salter. Either electric or PTO. Something like the Land Pride FSP500 is inexpensive ( up to 1k) but not designed for salt/sand. Next steps up cost several thousand. PTO driven spreading width...

Why is it that every glove in my cab is right-handed? Why is it that when I drop a rachet socket, it rolls in the drainage grate 3 feet away? Why is it that I put the ladder away and then see the one screw I didn't drive in? Why is it that I go to TSC or Home Depot for one item, come back with...

Just got L6060 back from dealer for 50 hour service and installation of top and tilt kit. I have Pat's quick hitch system on lower arms. This pushes my implements back making the manual top link (34 inches eye to eye ) relatively too short to easily reach the implement top hitch. This has been...

Despite looking at many videos and reading multiple instructions on cutting the PTO shaft for my chipper, I managed to cut it too short. I am completely stymied why it turned out this way and am agonizing over it. The shaft overlap is about 4 inches. I understand the recommended overlap is 6. I...

Just uncrating WoodMaxx MX 8800. Most robust boxing/palletizing I have ever seen. Of course after unboxing, saw that the 3 pt was facing the wrong way so will need to turn it around with pallet forks to expose approach for the 3 pt. It is bolted to the pallet and am thinking of mounting pressure...
