I went to use my L6060 this morning to clear some trees that came down in the windstorm we had last night, and as I’m driving down my gravel driveway, I thought my right rear tire was going flat b/c it felt like the tractor was leaning to the right. Turns out that the left-hand stabilizer put itself down and lifted the left rear tire off the ground. I called my Kubota dealer right away, but he didn’t have a solution, other than perhaps the lever for the stabilizer got stuck. It took some time to get the stabilizer back up. I used the tractor all day and when coming back to the house the same thing happened. Only one stabilizer was down, not both. I had to put the other one down. The lever wasn’t working at first. I finally got both of them upright and got it back to its parking spot. I noticed that there was hydraulic fluid everywhere, especially on the space where your feet go if you were using the backhoe. I think the problem is either with the foot switch for the hydraulic thumb or with the actual stabilizer levers. I posted some pics below. The fact that there is hydraulic oil above all the hoses on the platform makes me believe this is not a torn hose or anything. I’m assuming this is something tgat would be under warranty and the dealer should fix (I have less than 20 hr on the tractor).
