Nice. A good compromise of weight and power and tow-ability. I've had mind for a year now and just added a RUT Mfg Brush eliminator. Lots of fun busting up brush and small trees. HP

All great points...for you.

That's why I posted this thread. I've had KTAC since 2012 on various machines, some from new purchase, others, from just calling them and adding it. They have progressively ratcheted up the premiums to a point where they will persuade all but those with loans (and the ease to add to the loan...

Agreed with your reasoning, but there are perils that don't have anything to do with fixing it such as fire, theft, or a roll-over which totals your machine. Calculated risk, which is not one I want to take.

Paid off early back in 2017, then was allowed to continue paying the policy annual premiums. It is now $774 a year - especially an issue with the limited use I have. My new policy is $650 for this tractor, an L3540, a KX040 and a Ferris commercial mower all for personal use. Not really a...

Just received my renewal on my M7060. The premium went up ~ $200. I'm jumping ship and going to USAA with Travelers underwriting. All my equipment is covered for ~$650 with a $100 deductible. The Travelers policy is for personal use only and protects against Collision, Theft, Vandalism...

I run the Bushhog brand 1812 Flexwing cutter behind my M7060. The PTO requirement is 50-70 hp. It is a light duty cutter (up to 1 1/2" thick material). 3,278 lbs with 1,086 lb tongue wt. Pull behind, I believe will be easier on the tractor then 3pt in this weight category. That's a 1,000...

PM sent. Thanks

Yes, a copy of the engine service manual would be great!

Mobilux EP2 as recommended in the KX040 manual. I purchase the 10 pk on Amazon and delivered to my door.

I'd definitely put a 10k chain with a load binder on the back instead of straps. Add a clevis on the back at that attachment point to make it easier to run the chain. I'd say you want the best restrain to keep it from going forward in case of a frontal collision. On that note, what are those...

Hokie, I'm sure you resolved this issue over 1 1/2 years ago...what did you figure out?

If my dealer pulled that on me, that would be the last time they ever saw me at their parts department. What were they thinking, telling you one thing and doing another when you show up...:confused::mad:

I have an L3540 also and just cut mine. It worked fine. HP

Updates??:confused:
