What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

If you did something to or on you're tractor today and you don't want to start a new thread then post it here

I installed a horn I took from a tiny Toyota and then installed a decompression cable on mine today. Was going to do a little grading on the drive but got tired

Plowing with my M6800 and 3 bottom IH plow.

Such a great set up. Interesting how the outside tires look like the aircraft type and the inner four are laminated. I really enjoy pulling the folding cutter around and would sure love to have that tractor.

Thank you sir. Your spot on about the tires, the mower originally came with aircraft tires but after time the rubber wore out and foam started coming out and the tire started going out of round and wobbling. So I priced out tires $900 per tire cnd for the aircraft. Nope I bought laminated. If I go any distance I load it on the trailer anyways. The M6 is definitely a nice tractor. Too many buttons though I like my 108s for that haha

Nothing! Been working long days this week and it's really too wet to do much tractoring. I parked it outside my office window to look upon fondly instead, lol...

It looks kinda lonely in that big yard all by itself looking back inside for some attention. It might a like a playmate.

It is really longing for its non-caring owner to move him to that shady spot.

Orange on green in the sun... I'm sure Japanese artisans and farmers have a real appreciation for them together. I sure do.

The little B has been indispensable on the 'grill porch' project. Was excellent at carrying tools and materials up from the barn and then moving stones and gravel (for dog run).

What is a 'grill porch' you ask? It's a place to store grills & smokers outside (behind those sliding doors) to solve the first world problem of still wanting to do this when it's raining.

Had 21t of fill delivered and spread almost all of it.

The border of our lawn and woods is was fairly steep. That where any vehicles, including the tractor, travel to get to the back of the property. It was always a pucker moment when carrying anything heavy on the fel, no matter how low it was. I ordered a load of fill yesterday (2"-) and it was delivered this am.

Most was used to kind of level the path where vehicles travel and some was used to add mass around 2 of the I beams I just planted. I'll spread the yard or 2 that's left tomorrow. The material was just back bladed with the bucket. After another load is spread the box blade will be used to finish it. It has made a big difference already. With a heaped bucket I was wishing the ballast box I put together (~750lbs) weighed more!

My tractor is at the dealership getting 3 remotes and a top and tilt kit installed.

Good day. That’s great. What pushed you over the edge on the TNT? I have remotes which is handy with my hydraulic back blade…but my back blade kind of a pain to hook up…I wonder TNT would help that (it sags so makes the QH20 not helpful). Anyways, just curious.

I have a 1025# Bison blade that does everything: angle, tilt, offset. It’s a bit of a brute to manually adjust. I wish that I could get 4 factory remotes because the blade has 3 adjustments plus the top link. I won’t need the tilt cylinder on the blade, since I’ll have it on the 3ph. I installed a manual ratchet link for the offset function on the blade, so I guess I’ll just install the angle cylinder on the blade. I’m hoping that I can just pull the pin on the angle cylinder to reverse the blade.

Nice! I wouldn't have a tractor without three rear remotes and top-n-tilt. If you have a Quick Hitch, top-n-tilt makes hooking up to compatible implements about as easy as anything can be.

I don’t have a quick hitch, but the extendable lift arms make attachment of implements pretty easy.

I took the M6060 and RC3712 out to my friend's place late yesterday afternoon and did 1-1/2 hours of cutting before he called me inside for dinner. I left the tractor at his place last night and will be back over there Sunday morning to finish.

The vegetation is fairly thick in places so I was running in mid range, 2nd gear at 2mph which works well.

Once I've made one pass over everything I'll run around again at "high speed" to get any areas that I missed. I'm still learning the technique of making turns without missing sections. One thing is for sure, no neck pain this morning since I rarely need to look over my shoulder running this thing.

That's one big mower!

And also I heard the orange ones cut the best too haha

Gave a stump bucket a try. 4" stump took about 3 minutes to dig out. Not much of a workout but something different to try.
