All I can tell you is that it appears to be an American, not Japanese, part.

It turned out the problem with the loader was a defective assembly between the seat and steering wheel. I thought the loader extended farther down than it did. When I put the bucket back on, the loader lifted the front end just fine. I really need to replace that defective assembly. I hope...

It's a different model with a different manual, and the directions are reversed.

That sounds like a great way put it IN gear, but I have to push it down to get it out. I am reluctant to step on it, and I only have one left foot anyway.

In that case, never mind.

Maybe I'm using the wrong term. I mean the balls are not directly exposed, the way they are in many bearings. As you can see, they are covered up.

As I said, they do have shields.

The bearings arrived. It's an interesting design. They are not sealed against dust. A dust-sealed bearing will have a plate on each side to keep everything out. These bearings have weird shields that cover the balls but appear to let grease in. It looks like the purpose is to keep big pieces...

That's definitely better than my manual.

I should add that we already had our delightful yearly visit from the covid fairy.

This one isn't covid. Our son managed to find us something else. I think the flu got around his vaccination. My wife and I were just about to get shots when he got sick and passed it to us. It's not much of a flu, thank God. I'm glad to hear covid is getting more mild. For us, it's no more...

Thank you. That looks like great information. I am having some weird symptoms at the tail end of what is probably the flu, so I will not be fooling with the tractor until at least tomorrow. At least my parts arrived.

Here's another video.

I may as well post information that could help others. Here's a short video from a dealer. He's lucky to have that lever beside his seat. I have to engage the clutch while bending way over to reach my lever.

It was like this with the old tires, though, and it's a common problem, not just with Kubota, but with other manufacturers. I don't have any idea whether the original tires were on the tractor from the factory or the dealer mounted them at the owner's request. From other dealings with this...

The rear tires are turf tires. I got the tractor used. I am not sure why the original owner chose those tires. The original front tires looked like car tires. I replaced them with skid steer tires.

Too bad the L3710 isn't like that.

I don't know why they gave me a tiny lever way down by my foot, given that they knew this machine was hard to get out of 4WD. I should look at it and see how hard it would be to make a better lever.

I have to jack it to put new stuff in the left axle, so I guess I can use the jack to free the wheels. The parts are supposed to arrive tonight. I saw a procedure for getting air out of the hydraulic system, so I will give that a shot. I will also make sure the fluid is topped off, although I...

I had a debris fork on it, turned all the way down. I didn't think about uncurling it. I have read that air can get in and cause this.
