    Well I tore into the valve block and it appears it was just some spider sh!@ in the relief valve. The bottom one would bind up occasionally cleaned all up and reassembled and she seems to be alive!!!

    M59 backhoe boom dead

    The parts manual shows several O rings in the spool valve assembly. Are these a have to be from Kubota thing or just a same size/grade o ring will be fine?

    M59 backhoe boom dead

    So i just bought a 2012 M59. On test driving everything seemed to function as should minus a few leaks. On delivery the boom is pretty much dead. It will jerk a bit then go smoothly for a moment then you can hear the fluid flow stop and the boom just falls outward. It took a couple dozen tries...

    Got a question Kubota M59

    Thank you! Almost all of the stickers are missing. I did find 2 heavy wire rods sticking out from under seat and about 30% of a sticker on their proper use. These were already pushed in though. Are you sure it's in for 3pt and out for the hoe?

    Got a question Kubota M59

    On backhoe removal what do I need to do with hydro stuff? I just bought it, i knew it had a leak so I unplugged the 3 hoses so my son would not hit the levers and blow fluid everywhere. Suddenly it won't start unless I push the clutch in. When release clutch it bogs a bit. I have manuals...

    Guys I guess I specifically mean like how should I be evaluating the machine. IE "run the hoe through its full range" cool sounds good how the heck do i do that? I know once I get one it will take awhile to get usefully good.
