Got it on the lift and started lifting it and noticed that the far (non-powered) side safety latch wasn't working. Apparently, I have a problem with the lift I need to fix first. Atlas knows all about the problem.

With the basic tractor plus liquid ballast plus wheel weights, I'm at 4701 lbs for the tractor. Add the 1157 lbs for the LA853 FEL, that goes to 5860. I have one tool like the Turf kit shown above for my Kubota diesel ZTR; I'm not sure I'd trust it for one end of the tractor. :unsure:

Good point: Atlas 12k lb lift. At +70 years, I'm done crawling around on the ground.

I need to work on my tractor and I've never put it on the 2-post lift before. It is a Kubota L4330, ~40 hp with 4wd. The Front End Loader (FEL) will be on but no implement (bucket, grapple etc.). The rear tires are filled ~750 lbs of liquid ballast and there are two lead, steel concrete wheel...

Yep. The wires on my Fill-rite 120 vac pump were well tucked in the junction box when I received it. Got a reply from Fill-rite (paraphrasing): "Overspray. Remove the junction box and the black wire should be obvious - like the instructions say to do [dumbass]." The DA was obviously not...

After writing this out, I think you're exactly right. Note that the first instruction is to remove the junction box to get to the wires. These wires were both exposed and out when I unboxed the pump. I'll take off the box tomorrow and confirm. Thanks!

Let's see if you can spot the problem with the directions on this Fill-rite 1204H 12vdc wiring instructions: Is that little bit of "black" supposed to be the black wire as shown in the diagram? Here is what the Fill-rite Owner's Manual says about wiring for the 12vdc model (emphasis...

I follow the Andrew Camarata maintenance protocol: Date and hours on the machine on the oil or hydraulic filters.

Almost any of these will work: Canopy/sun shade options or designs? | OrangeTractorTalks - Everything Kubota I put the same golf cart roof on both my L4330 tractor and my ZD326 zero turn. $50 each off of CL.

$50 golf cart roof: I bought two at the same time and installed one on my Kubota ZD326 zero turn.

Any farm type supply store should have them. Tractor Supply has them as well, but I despise TSC. I get mine from the Hwy 53 Farm and Hardware store.

Bottom half. It's not coming from any of the ports. I'll see if I can take a pic tomorrow.

Not Baileys. I bought a three spool valve from them. E-mailed them a question: Never heard back. It leaked like a sieve. Since the original installation was forked up, I wrote the leaks off to that. Replaced it with another Bailey 3 spool. It leaks like a sieve as well. :mad: :mad: :mad...

Greasy hands??? :unsure: In 10 years, it's only been off twice: Once to use the post hole digger and then this time to fix it.

After about 5 minutes using my 22 ton Speeco/Huskee log splitter to strraighten eveything out: And then reinforce it using mostly bed frame angle iron and test coupon material from the James Lincoln Foundation (Lincoln Welders): After an alcohol rub cleaning and painting...
