    L235 3 point hitch control

    Great news! The most disconcerting problem, lack of lift, has been solved. First off, I was mistaken when I said my brother had made the friction adjustment on the arm; he had not. I finally made it over to his house to assess the situation and take any necessary photos. Now that I’m armed...

    L235 3 point hitch control

    Thanks, Wolfman. I'll try to stop over at his place tonight and see what I can find out. I don't think the FEL was hooked up wrong, because one hose is male and the other female, but I'll still try to get some pics.

    L235 3 point hitch control

    Well, gentlemen, sadness abounds. My brother made the adjustment, which was all well and good, but when he hooked up a box blade, it would try to raise, but didn’t have enough power. The hydraulics on the front end loader work fine, but not the 3 point hitch. I believe it had been at least...

    L235 3 point hitch control

    My brother has a L235 DT that has a problem with the raising and lowering of the 3 point hitch. If he holds the lever up by hand, the hitch will stay raised, but as soon as he lets go, the lever and the hitch immediately drop down to the lowered position. It is a condition that apparently has...

    L235 or L235DT -- Is there a difference?

    Ah, "dual traction". That would have been my next guess. ;-) Thanks for the quick replies!

    L235 or L235DT -- Is there a difference?

    Hello, new guy here and pretty much new to Kubotas. My brother has an early 80s L235DT (per the ID plate) and I'm trying to help him replace a water pump. My question is this: In looking at various parts suppliers, I see a lot of listings for parts for the "L235", but almost nothing that...
