LA534 loader hoses rubbing on 2650 hood paint

[wacnstac]

I have my loader off for the winter so I can blow snow. Noticed that the loader hoses are really rubbing the paint on the hood. Is there something that can be done to keep these hoses away from the hood or do I just have to live with it?

Just looked at mine and the hoses don't touch the paint. They do rub on the black plastic.

I'll take a look at mine when I get a chance and post back.

They do not rub on my B3350.

Your dealer should have installed the hoses such that they do not rub anything.

Both my M's came from the factory with a formed 1/8" diameter round loop hose guide that the hoses ride in to keep them off the hood. Surprised Kubota don't have a similar part on your tractors.

Flipper,
You said the 105 isn't loader equipped ??

I think the dealer didn't install that hoop that holds them close to the loader.

I think the dealer didn't install that steel piece that holds them close to the loader.

On my units the hose 'hoop' for lack of a better name, is welded to the upright post that carries the loader arm and there isn't much clearance between the loader uprights and arms anyway, without that guard, I'd have no paint on my hood in that spot at all.

The hoses going thu the loop on that FEL are so tight that they rub on the frame. I had to get my hoses replaced only after a few months of owning the tractor.

Might go to you local hydraulic supply and see if they have some of the nylon protective sleeve material to put over your hoses for protection.
