    Air Pressure

    Put the valve stem at 12 o'clock and start by putting air IN the tire to clear out the liquid. Then just push the valve stem in with a medium size philips screw driver. If just air comes out, you can use the gauge you have. If liquid comes out, you need a new liquid compatible gauge.

    Renting rear PTO rototiller?

    Depending on your situation, it might be best to buy one. If you have a place to store it, inside preferably. It won't cost you much to keep it for how ever long you need it and then sell it when your done and recoup all or most of your money. Any used equipment I have sold I got most or more...

    PTO shaft rebuild

    I think you will find just buying a new shaft and cut it to the right length will be the best rout, especially since yours is too short. Tractor supply, granger or just look on line they aren't that expensive.

    Leaf raking tools

    I went to a cyclone rake for my zero turn. I does work really well, but they are expensive new.

    L4060 PTO problem power takeoff

    I have tried just about every combination of RPM. Nothing seems to work every time to shut it off. If I idle the tractor and just keep turning the switch on and off it will eventually stop turning.

    L4060 PTO problem power takeoff

    I know I'm resurrecting an old post, but I have a gr L6060 does the same thing. It's been doing it for over a year but so intermittent I don't make an appointment, because it won't do it every time. Longer run times with PTO engaged does seem to make it happen. If anyone has had a fix, I sure...

    cleaning air filter

    Thanks for the good advise. Now, I'm thinking I should just replace it yearly when I service the rest of the tractor. What's "another" $75. This is like snowmobiling. lol

    cleaning air filter

    How often do you replace it. I service my tractor every year, which is 100 to 150 hrs. The filter is very dusty when I do this. I too use all Kubota filters and oil, except the 15W40 Rotella synthetic. I'd use Kubota synthetic if they offered it.

    cleaning air filter

    Ok guys, I searched and didn't find anything, quickly. How does everyone clean the air filter on their tractor. I know blowing air into it will sometimes pack the dirt in tighter. Is there an air filter cleaning solution that works? Just soap and water? Spray with degreaser and wash out then...

    Attachment Storage Question - Pallet Racking

    I would look for some used metal pallet racks. I have all my implements on pallets and store some of them in racks and the others on the floor on pallets. I have a pallet jack so I can easily move the ones on the floor to get to what I want. I even have my back hoe on a pallet. That was always...

    Snow Removal

    If you don't access the building very mush a snow blower might work for you. I have a few buildings that are off the beaten path. Sometimes I need to get into them in the winter and sometimes I don't. I have a snow blower that will blow a path to the buildings any time during the winter. As long...

    Snowblower on Gravel - Skid shoe question

    I have a Erskine 84" snowblower on my tractor and they used round snowplow skids. They work fine on my gravel yard. I think the skids on the out side edges of the snowblower will have to be set lower, leaving more snow on the ground. Especially since you said your yard was quite rouge and...

    PTO won't shut off

    If I decide to get a work shop manual. What is the best one for the consumer. I can do electrical and light repairs, as long as they don't require special tools or computer diagnostic.
