Hi from Denmark.
I have a F3060, but i havent got a original deck for it, but i have another front mounted deck but the gearbox says 540 rpm, but isnt the tractor pto rpm much higher?
Is it only kubota decks i can fit? Its mountes with an A frame...
I also ned to convert the 10 spline to 6 spline, and can se some adapters are made, does that work? Cant find anything 10 spline here in Denmark.

Thanks.

Your machine has a one speed front pto running at almost 2,500 rpm.

540 rpm is the speed most conventional tractors have their rear pto's running.

Traditional styled small Kubota's using front mounted blowers driven from a mid pto are operating at the same high speed.

Like Dave said that models PTO is 2500 RPM, the 10 spline output denotes that.

Look for other Newer F series mower decks for one you could fit to it.

hello,

There is some specialist companies, e.g. This one in eastern germany:

http://www.haase-salow.de/gelenkwellen/kommunaltechnik/

Who do all types of special cardan shafts, they combine different in out profiles too,
Most muncipality tractors and front mowers have counter clockwise rotating pto's with approx. 2000 rpm,

But some are different, i think john deere is clockwise

AG tractors front ptos are CCW too but at 1000 rpm,
Some mow decks have gear boxes which have two output shafts to be mounted for clockwise or CCW ptos.

A 540 deck with a 2500 rpm pto doesn't work too well.

Good luck to Denmark

Regards

Robert

Fwiw...i have watched more than one YT video with flail mowers on the F3680 which is just a higher HP version of the f3060. So it is obvious to me decks other than Kubota will work but I cannot comment on the rpm.
