What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[skeets]

I have to take off the lift linkage on the BX for the MMM that stupid oval shaped keeper is gone rounded off, now I have to take it off and grind off whats left of that keeper and find a washer to fit the shaft and get it welded on,, just like I had to do on the other side,,,grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Today I hooked my Land Pride rotary mower up. Removed the cover on the rear shroud to grease the u joint. I had to turn the drive shaft to get the zirt lined up and there was a big hunk of dirt hanging on it, brushed it off.....whoa, yellow jacket nest !!!! I did not know this old carpenter could move so fast. No stings and came back with the hornet spray and got the job done. It had been only 2 weeks without use.

Was in the 80's yesterday and today, mowed about 5 acres total, my son enjoys cutting grass again. That machine sips fuel compared to my 23 hp gas lawnmower.cuts faster too.

Installed my Wheel Spacers on the tractor. It was tough job! View attachment 17140 View attachment 17141

I'm just curious, what tractor is that on?
I know the entire wheel wasn't shown but do the wheels themselves adjust for width?

Those look nice, what brand spacers are they?

Yesterday I unloaded my new Woodmaxx WM-8M off the back of my truck so I could assemble it. One thing about Dodge Ram 4x4s, they sit really high. Almost didn't have enough lift to get the chipper out of the crate while it was on the back of the truck. Got it all put together and did a little clean up along the driveway of branches that I had trimmed off some trees. Did a couple 3" limbs and it handled them with no problem.

How do you like that Wood Maxx chipper.. I'm thinking of getting one...

L3901, 2 inch, by BroTek Rich was great. I order them, paid via paypal and they were shipped the same day. All the parts came with them as well to mount the wheels. Hardest part was breaking the bolts loose and remounting the tires.

They look great. Are your wheels one piece?

I went to Kubota's site and it looks like some are 2 piece and one set are single. Is that correct or am I seeing things?

I only ask because Mine are 2 piece and the width is adjustable. I haven't looked at any of the new models so I don't know much about them other than what I've read.

I have R4's so i don't have the adjustable width. These are one piece

On "Tiny Tim" (BX) drained the front axle for an oil change.
On "Big Bertha" (M) emptied the stalls, and cleaned out the barn with a few trips to the manure pile.
All in all, a pretty crappy day for Bertha!

Finished getting all the wood from the neighbors and stacked along the fence. Got around 2 chord off the one tree. Gotta get it all split before I get anymore

Why would you stack it before its split?

I don't own a splitter. Got limited access to one, but won't have access to it for at least a couple more weeks. I usually end up having to accumulate a bunch and then split it in one weekend. Tree at the neighbors was either get it out of here asap or lose the wood

 

[Bulldog]

Nice stack of wood for one tree.

Spraying some Pastora.

Thanks I actually screwed up on my math as far as the amount of wood I got. My trailer holds 1.5 chord of wood packed even to the top of the rails. Had one rounded trailer load, and one full and even with the rails from the tree. Figuring once it's split, I'll have about 2.5 chord of wood from the one tree. Had almost 3/4 of a chord just from the top that didn't need to be split. One more tree like that and I'll have more then enough for the winter

Pretty good to get that much wood out of only 2 trees.

Theres a few versions of splitters using bucket cylinders on youtube, mounts on loader above bucket and a rod to hydraulic lever for control.

I should suck it up and buy a stand alone unit. Up till this year I would rent one for $75 for the weekend. So I would get the boy over to the house for a day and just leave the splitter hooked to my truck. Drive down the fence line and split everything up. My boss bought one this year so I can borrow his instead of renting, but won't be able to get it for a couple weeks. He's in the process of getting in his wood pile also

A wood splitter is a bitter sweet purchase. When you need one it great to have but it sux to have one sitting in the shed the rest of the year.

 

[aeblank]

Borrowing is a perfect price!
