What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

Finally cleared the P3001 code from the 4701 which had been bugging me. Thing was, one of the plastic buttons [switch?] I needed to press had disappeared from the instrument panel a few months ago. No idea where it could have gone, pulled off by a raven maybe? Stranger things have happened. Kubota dealer is a ways away so haven't gotten to them to look at a parts catalogue to see if I can order a replacement or if they are currently unobtanium. Anyway, found I could stick a finger down in the hole for the button and push it to work ok for the code clearing. At least something went right. Finger's ok, too.

Spent the morning pruning my over grown magnoila tree and taking the brush to my burn pit.

There is probably someone here who could offer you an opinion on which grapple to get Ridelght.

Grapples are wonderful things regardless what specific model you get.

I liked the 1 Shekki got from Messicks from his pictures. I shoukd have got the 3rd function installed before i took delivery.
Never too late. Feels like our property here is 80 percent trees. Always maintaining or cleaning up.
Thanks guys !! A pto chipper would be awesome too instead of burning. Espically green stuff. Found an odd brand for 1000 bucks locally but not sure on that yet. Thinking i should get a more know brand.

I was eyeballing that same chipper. Unfortunately I was unable to find a ton of info on it but what I did find has me passing on it.

For new I’d be at about $3k for the size and features I want. The few that pop up used the sellers ask near new prices so not worth it for me. There was a good deal on a WoodMaxx in Indiana last week but I was unable to fit in a road trip before it was snatched up.

I wish I could give a grapple review but my land is still far too soft for any real work to be done without deep tracks being left. Still sitting at 2.x hours.

So yours is only a day older than mine.

BTW…….for what our dealer wanted to install the 3rd function you are much better off doing it yourself.

O have had a hard time finding the kit online for the L4060. I have found other options like Everything Attachments has a kit but no metal lines. They told me who makes them its a brand name but Id like to stay Kubota. Messick's doesn't list this exact Model. Dealer wants 1200 for the kit alone when I asked.
Any other options I am not aware of ?
Thanks

Yes that is correct. I need to look at loader but i think that may be the correct kit. I saw that listed but for Mx.
Thanks

I built your tractor on the Kubota site with the 3rd function kit and that’s the part number they included in the quote. It could be wrong but it’s all I could find. Good luck!

Spent an hour cleaning up the bottom of the driveway with the fel. Once things start to melt, I need to have a place for the water to run, or it will wash out expensive gravel.

Ground is still soft, but passable. Took advantage and used the bucket with piranha tooth bar on my little B to pull up (a dozen or so) small trees by the roots. Working on clearing about 2 acres of woods. Still waiting on the (bh70) backhoe.

My ground is nice and moist and a bit soft. This afternoon I used my rear blade to tip out a dozen older tree stumps that were always an obstacle to field mowing. There are still many more but I was able to remove some of the ones that were most in the way.

As I posted a few days ago, winter is over, I declared it done. So today I removed the snowblower from the tractor (omg thanks for pin releases on pto shaft!) and put it in the garage. When I turn on my outside sillcocks I'll take it outside for a good washing.

Getting ready for spring planting - this weekend I tilled and hilled

I walked the property today. Still too soft for work. Stuck at 2.x hours but installed grill guard today. LEDs for the ROPS and wiring shows up tomorrow.
