    Warm up time in Winter vs. Summer

    Ugh I do not want to be THAT GUY that asks a hyper controversial question. Sorry about that. Thanks for the info.

    Warm up time in Winter vs. Summer

    Thanks for that. I know I should not stress the tractor before its fully warmed up but can I move the tractor before warm up is completely done?

    Warm up time in Winter vs. Summer

    Stupid new guy question: I understand the importance of allowing enough time for warming up the tractor before putting it under stress in cold weather. But what do you do in the summer? This weekend it was close to 80 degrees outside and I still warmed it up for several minutes but wondered...

    Can I offset my box blade?

    Ok thank you. Sounds like I just need to use my tractor a lot more and practice. Bummer :LOL:

    Can I offset my box blade?

    Ugh I don't think I am explaining my question correctly. My Top n' tilt will tilt the box blade to one side, and will tilt the blade forward or backwards to change the angle relative to the ground. What I want to do (and the top n' tilt doesn't do this) is pull one side of the box blade closer...

    Can I offset my box blade?

    Probably a dumb question, but I have a L3301 with a BB1572 box blade and the top n' tilt kit. While I love this set up, I really want to push material back to the center of the road. Can I adjust one of the lift arms to be shorter so that I am dragging the box blade at an angle? I didn't see...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Is algaecide mostly a summer thing? Or should I be adding that all year round even if it gets cold in the winter?

    I'm an idiot and lost my keys. Now what?

    Just following up - I ordered a pack of 5 keys from Amazon for $7 and they fit and work perfectly. Thanks again for all the help and believe me I will keep spare keys in different places and have purchased LARGE orange keychains to keep me from losing them in the future :)

    I'm an idiot and lost my keys. Now what?

    You are all so great. Thank you. I am very relieved this is not going to be an expensive or lengthy mistake!

    I'm an idiot and lost my keys. Now what?

    2018 3301 Tractor. Not sure what my options are. The good news I guess is that I lost them on my property somewhere so its not like anyone else will find them. Are Tractor keys like car keys? Or are they more like RV/trailer keys where I think you can just buy a master key. Thanks in...

    Tractor wont shift into High

    Ok I am an idiot. When I bought my used L3301 (260 hours) I thought I had tried everything on it. I remember shifting from Med to Low to make sure that worked but I guess I was in such a tight space I never tried High. Yesterday I could have used High but when I shift to H it just rolls like...

    Who's Using a Trickle Charger / Battery Tender?

    This is a related but probably dumb question. Is there a way to figure out how long you would need to operate your tractor to fully charge a battery? I realize there are a lot of variables there - but I have never used a Tender on my tractor but also have never even had a problem starting it...

    Creeping

    YES THIS! I had issues with my HST pedal not always returning to full neutral and discovered that only two of the three zerks were being greased by the previous owner (one of the zerks was covered with caked on mud and looked like it hadn't been serviced in forever). Greasing those three zerks...

    Emptying the water seperator

    Ok thank you both. I was starting to get paranoid that because I never see the red ring move I was not looking at it right or it was stuck to the bottom :)

    Low vs. Med

    Thank you for the replies. The one thing I have noticed is that HST whine is far less when I am in Low vs. Med. Not sure if that means anything but I do enjoy the less whining from using Low.

    Emptying the water seperator

    Now that the mystery is solved, can I add on a bonus question? I have never seen any water (my red ring is still on the bottom) and I have had my rig for about 1.5 years. Is it common to never have a water problem if you take care of your fuel and always keep it topped off?

    Low vs. Med

    I ran into somebody the other day that has the same L3301 that I do and we both use it primarily to grade roads with a box blade so we were comparing notes. The one thing I thought was odd is that I always use low when grading the road with the box blade, he keeps his in Med. We basically are...

    How to move HST when tractor dies?

    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but it just occurred to me that I have no idea how to move my HST tractor if the engine dies. On a manual tractor I could put it in neutral and roll it up a truck ramp, etc. How do you move an HST if the engine won't run?

    Stupid question of the day...

    That is what I needed to know. Obviously diesel cars and trucks aren't using Anti-gel unless things get extreme so I figured I was fine using quality Gas Station Diesel. But its good to know I can add the PS White without worrying about overdoing it. Thank you!
