L4060 Main fuse?

[aledub]

Morning all, well I have a question that even my dealer can't answer properly so I'm hoping someone can chime in and let me know what they have on their L60 tractor.

The main fusible link on my L4060HSTC is a 100a. The Kubota parts finder says it should be an 80a and so does my dealer. I bought it brand new around 8 months ago and that's what was in it. I sure as heck don't want to run a fuse rated 25% more if it was done in error on assembly.

So, I'm wondering if anyone minds confirming what they have in the fusible link box above their battery? First fuse on the left and I would appreciate the insight.

For reference, the Kubota part number is T1270-30580

Put an 80A in.
If it doesn't blow you're good to go.

Mines has an 80 in it. The cover also has 80 on it.

Huh, look at that. Looks like a trip to the dealer is in order for an 80a. Better to be safe than sorry in this instance. I don't remember what the cover said on it as I'm at work now, but I'll be sure to look again as soon as I get home today.

It's very possible that it has an upgraded alternator if it has a heater kit, defrosters, and other accessories and that would also upgrade the main fuse.
Downgrading the proper updated fuse could cause you some serious issues.
