I tried that once...once. LOL Pushed the damned thing into the dirt at the back of the barn trying to line up to the subframe and nearly dumped it over. WIll need locking wheels to keep that from happening. The woods comes up from the bottom into the notches, and then slides into slots. If it is off just a little bit the tractor will push it, and wow did those wheels roll nicely. Been storing it on the pallet it came on.
What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

Ugh. Went to mow my dad's lawn. I used my Ferris while my brother used dad's BX. I brought fuel but my brother said it was already full so he put the can back in my truck bed. The BX ran for about 2 minutes then didn't. Would crank but not start. Fuel gauge said full. Hmm, last time I used it it was just under a quarter tank. Somebody filled it WITH GAS.
So ... what I did with dad's Kubota was drag it onto a trailer and take it home. Drain the tank, remove both filters, fill with diesel, pump diesel thru the lines, replace filters, prime. She fired right back up
She's gonna stay at my house until I find out who put the gas in her. While I have her, she'll be getting a good wash, and full exam.

I spent yesterday mowing trails, around my little wildlife pond and a area for a future large pond. My soil type for the most part is loamy sand and dries out quickly within a day or two after a rain. I notice with this 6ft land pride mower I eat a lot more dust and dirt than with the four foot cutter behind my B7100.
Its hard to tell the area I mowed for the large pond but it was thick with mares tail and cool season grasses. My L2501 had no problem running the cutter HP wise. As I was mowing I came across this buck watching me, his antlers are much further ahead than any of the other bucks I have spotted this summer so far.

Pulled a lilac tree out of the ground that was right up against the house. The M6060 is a tank and it took all of 5 seconds to pull it out. Not very impressive compared to some of the stumps you guys are getting out of the ground but kind of a novelty for me since I typically leave it to the wind to uproot trees.
Had to rent a Kubota mini to do the underground plumbing in this basement. Figured I’d share

Let us know what you thought of the U-25. Was that an 18" bucket on it?
I'm thinking of snagging one for myself when the opportunity presents itself for a decent price.

PHD stand. I tried a couple of home made versions and didn't have good success. This is the Landpride stand and I have to say that it does make life easier.
After approximately 15 months my core aerator came in.

He’s sticking his tongue out at you and we saying…”during deer season, you will never see me!”
He does look like his bases will have some mass…

First thing this morning I serviced the Del Morino flail mower. I greased all 12 zerk locations, cleaned up all 24 hammer edges (so easy to do with the cutting head vertical), and used some old garden hose to protect the hydraulic hoses where they pass through metal keeper rings (one hose was getting chaffed fairly significantly).
Next I used the flail for what I primarily bought if for, i.e. to cut the weed patch along the lower driveway. The ground gets very unstable near the edge of the driveway and rolling the tractor becomes a real possibility so I could only go as far out as I felt was safe.

Ha! Ha! Thanks! I was only going to add four short sections but since it was so easy to cut and slice the garden hose I made eight. Then it occured to me that I could have cut four longer pieces to extend between the upper and lower keepers rather than have eight short pieces so I might do that at some point. The hydraulic hoses slide easily inside the garden hose which they need to it seems as the head moves in/out/up/down.I like the hose hose guards!
Installed a set of Oregon Gator blades on my BX. I also leveled the deck, it was 1/2" high on the right side, greased all the spindles, idler pulley, center pivot, gauge wheels, and checked the oil in the gearbox. It's good to go for the rest of the season, if we get enough rain to make the grass grow. After an unusually wet spring, it's been almost two weeks with no rain, and looks like it might be a couple more before we get any decent amount.

It’s not a bad machine, my biggest complaint is that it has a quick disconnect bucket on it so the bucket won’t go straight, so you can’t clean a wall off with it if you are digging the face of a wall. And when you are digging a bigger hole you can’t dig the wall facing you square on the bottom. Other than that it’s A great little machine. I’d love to own one.
