Mike, if this is a gray market tractor (not destined for the US originally) find the US equivalent model and use that when getting parts. Kubota will treat you like a leper or COVID-19 positive and black ball you and not sell you any parts if they know you have a gray market tractor.
This is good information to have! Our local kubota dealer is kind of hometown. As long as u can bring them the part number, they have no issue getting me what I need . Which, BTW, is how I came to own it! I bought it from a long time.family friend who is also our retired county attorney... trust me.. this means good people.
And he had bought a new bigger kubota with a bucket, etc. I stopped by one day and asked about the little tractor and if he had traded it in... he said no, it quit starting so he parked it in the shed.
Long story short here.... it sat about 6 months or so before I got it. "It quit starting because the switch is bad on it" was all I had.
He priced it to me at $100us. And it was hard to reach in my pocket in a slow measured manner. Also told me if I couldnt get it going.... he would give me my money back! How's that for a guarantee... and it was in writing!
Did I mention it came with a -6 kubota finish mower? A little rough but really serviceable!
The local.shop doesnt have a book on this model anymore. So he was out of luck waiting on them to find the part.
I got online.. found the kubotabooks site and found the part number. Also had a dealer online verify that number for me.
About $45 later I had the main power switch replaced (the off/on switch) and had charged the battery.
3rd attempt to start it hit. 5th attempt it ran like a top!
I am a walking example of how even a blind squirrel finds a nut from time to.time!

Looks to me like an automotive badge someone put on there that has nothing to do with the unit at all.
