What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[GreX]

There's one setting beyond the "0" on the knob, marked "T". That should keep the skid plate in the uppermost position.

I was able to get it up into the top position - had to pull the skid off the mower riser - once at the top position, I was able to 'force it' into accepting with the pins. Couldn't really figure out what was the sticking point, but, its on there now.

Just planted red potatoes useing my " hiller"

Wow…. I live in the wrong place.

Don’t know any different.

Was talking to an acquaintance about Maple Syrup.

Most folks start tapping trees in about a month….we count on snow and below freezing temperatures for a while in advance of the sugaring season.

Maple season is often February to April, as Mother Nature dictates.

Cut and split some firewood today.

One of the logs had a lot of blue in it. Was wondering what piece of metal was in it, found barbed-wire.

 

[Magicman]

Thankfully you were bucking and splitting rather than sawmilling. That wire would have cost a blade.

The blue is your clue.

 

[utkdoc]

Do you not feel a grab when you're bucking? I always thought that would be a scary event when it inevitably happens to me.

Doesn't appear to have hit it with the saw. Looks like it was exposed by splitting.

Buried my Beast of a GSD, 110lbs, only 8 years old. Was chasing coyotes and his normal sized brother last night, healthy and no signs of trauma. Very unexpected. He is getting an honored burial not just "Dad's Ash hole", hope the same for myself someday.

Ouch, so sorry to hear. It’s so hard and sad to lose a pet.

Lost Ollie New Years Day 2022.

 

[Lil Foot]

I'm sorry for your loss. It hurts to lose a family member.

Bummer, I currently have my first pup, who was mine since he was actually a puppy, and I can't imagine losing this guy, will likely break me.

Stopped at my dealer to get new radiator hoses for the B1700 and saw this beauty outside. L6060 50th Anniversary. Not sure the bill on this but man I would hate to scratch that paint. I’m liking the grey FEL though.

 

[Trapper Bob]

I did some fence building today. Welding the pipe & getting ready to stretch the barbed wire.

A fitting burial for a fine animal and friend. Good job. Very sorry to hear of your loss. I've been there myself and know how you must feel.

My condolences. We lost our dog or 14 years this fall .

Decided to help the neighbor remove ice off their driveway, wow, the BX's FEL made the task... fun, and easy, wow - I'm still learning how to operate it, so I'm sure I'm a lot slower than most of you on here, but glad I invested in a bigger sub-compact tractor (I know it's also very small to most of you on here) versus getting a bigger lawn tractor.

Satisfying, ain't' it?
One thing I (and several others) did was add a UHMW plastic edge to the loader. I made mine from a 4" X 48" ¾" piece. (Got mine from Peachtree Woodworking, but it's available on Ebay). I drilled and countersunk mine so the bolt heads are flush, and put a 30° bevel on the leading edge. The plastic is plenty sturdy, but won't gouge the asphalt of my driveway.

There's an old thread about it here it you want to go searching.
There's also a several month old thread (started by me) about adding a step to the tractor to make getting onto it easier when the mower deck is removed. BX2380 step? | OrangeTractorTalks - Everything Kubota
You may want to look at them.

Installed the left rear axle after repairing a hole in it. Now I need to know how to check the fluid level. There is no dip stick

Probably there is a plug in the side of the tramsmi that you remove and fill the sump until oil runs out the hole.

plug is probably near the clutch pedal on the left side of the case and really looks like a flanged head bolt but should have a sealing washer underneath it

owners manual at kubotabooks dot com actually shows the location and shows a sight gauge

Cleaned the driveway and then cleared the path to our cabin. R14s and no chains works well for me.
