    Front end post hole digger

    OK, dumb question time. MX5100 and I have 3rd function on front end loader for grapple. Am I safe in assuming there would not be enough flow to operate a front end post hole digger?? I am not sure about flow rate, so I guess that is what I need to find out, but I am thinking that 3 point...

    Tiller or disc harrow

    I also use my tiller like a cultipacker. Turn it off, set it on the ground, and go. The back panel drags and covers the seed and the tines pack. Has worked well for me. Doc

    Need grease gun - new L2501 owner

    JMHO, if you grease things regularly; 1. you are ahead of 9 out of 10 people out there 2. it doesn't really matter what type grease you use. Doc

    I ran out of fuel, help

    Went back to edit the much better advice from below. READ THE OWNERS MANUAL. I am a fool for not putting that first. Won't start until you crack the injectors/bleed the air from the system. Don't just keep cranking. I am sure there are videos on how to do it. It isn't hard, but is...

    Seat issues MX 5100

    I got to noticing that my MX 5100 was beating me to death. Hadn't really thought about it, but got to looking and my seat is bottomed out and I cannot for the life of me get it to move. Tightened the spring all the way and it is still bottomed out. How difficult are these to remove? Looks...

    Steering wheel turns, wheels don't MX 5100

    New one to me. MX 5100 with 155 hrs, barn kept. Was driving to get diesel, approx 6 mile trip. Noticed that I had to keep turning the steering wheel counter clockwise to keep it on the road. Must have made 25 revolutions in the 6 mile trip 5 - 10 degrees at a time. Same on way home...

    PTO equipment

    A couple of guys i know with bigger tractors used the higher pto gears to obtain the 540 rpm for generators, so they used less diesel after the hurricanes. However, these were big tractors (80-100 hp), so i don't think that it's too applicable to thre kubota tractors.

    Bam, Merry Christmas to me

    Very happy MX5100 owner. HOWEVER, isn't it funny how easy it is to get tractor envy!!! I think that MX5800 would be a BEAST!! However, I really like the "no regen" on my little MX, and the wife would absolutely KILL me if I wanted to do a tractor swap!! Your little ride is a fine tractor!! Doc

    Attaching a BH77 backhoe to an L3200

    Take it all off. Doesn't take that much longer. I have the BH92 for an MX 5100 and it takes about 20 min for me to do it by myself. No big deal, but I would rather take everything off than chance something tearing loose a hydraulic hose. Doc

    Help getting filters off

    Well, couldn't find a chain wrench but 27.04 for the largest pipe wrench I could find at Lowes fixed the problem. Thx Doc
