I tried running with the skids on but at their lowest setting the blower edge sat about an inch above the asphalt and consequently left a layer of snow behind. Plus the skids left some real marks on the drive. Once I took them off the wear blade sat flush with the pavement and really cleaned...

Hi All, I was wondering if someone could give me a little help. After a few months of shopping and pencil sharpening I finally pulled the trigger on a new unit. I traded my open cab L3130 in on a Grand L4060 with FEL and front snow blower. I’ve had a chance to use the blower a couple of times...

Thanks guys for the input, I was afraid the Quick Attach unit was too good to be true. When I spoke to the Sheyenne rep. he mentioned that his blower is PTO driven preferably from the mid mount. The thing I was a little leery of was their mid PTO pump, hoses and filters stay on the tractor all...

Thanks for the feedback, sorry for the spelling error my bad. Both companies are similar in their function, both work off the tractors hydraulics and both connect via the tractors quick release’s on the loader. Sheyenne Mfg. powers theirs with a PTO pump and there is equipment that you put on...

I’m new to the forum and was hoping for a little help. I'm getting real close to pulling the trigger on a new L4060 with a cab and FEL. I'd like to add a Kubota 74" front snow blower but I'm afraid of the price, but more so that it won't perform well in all snow conditions especially the wet...

Thanks guys for the regen information on the L3560. It’s always great when you can talk with someone who owns one and has first hand knowledge. Since I’ve been shopping for one I have heard different things from some of the dealers which has made me nervous about making the purchase. I have an...

I'm interesting in buying a new L3560 or a L4060 with cab but the regen has me a little worried. I test drove a 3560 yesterday at my dealer and overall liked the tractor but was surprised to hear that you have to run it at higher rpm's even when your sitting still. The dealer says that you can...

Thanks Larry for your input, I'll have to check out those other threads to get some more information on the actuator idea. It sounds like it might be the way to go since I really don't expect to have a need for third funtion hydraulics.

Thanks for all the input so far, It's starting to sound like the front mount might be the way to go. Just as a test I backed my 3130 around part of the drive the other day to see how a rear blower might be. I found some spots to be a little tricky making sure not to hit something with the FEL...

I have about a 1/4 mile of drive that whines through some woods and it includes a tricky turn around near my barn. That's why I was thinking I might have better luck blowing the snow instead of building mountains with the plow. It sounds like hydraulic controls are the way to go with a cab. Do...

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't talked to anyone with a front blower. I'm looking at the 74" blower which the dealer tells me Kubota offers with two seperate subframes for the front units. One is supposedly hydraulic mounted and the other is manual. I can't find any information on either to...

Hello all, hopefully I am posting this in the right place as I am new to OTT. From reading many of the sites this is the go to place for Kubota questions, so I’m hoping someone can help me. To begin I have a 2003 Kubota L3130 with a FEL and have been recently looking into trading it in on...
