    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    It is really an easy process as others have said. Flat surface most important, First time is the scariest. Only trouble I have had was the first time removing when you curl the bucket to lift the loader arms out of pin sockets I did not curl enough to put the bottom of the bucket flat on the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I hope I can pass off grungy yellow for faded orange here and it was Tuesday not today........ Over the years the frost has pushed up a large rock in our road/driveway. Tuesday was the day to remove it. I used my 1990 70 hp TD7G to push it out and off the road. I set my camera out and...

    Dipping toes in the world of Welding

    10 years ago I was in your place. If I needed something welded I brought it to a small shop with a friendly owner. After doing this and watching him work over and over I decided that I needed/wanted to learn and do it myself. I bought an old working 220VAC 225 AmpAC tombstone and started...

    I have a 5' bar and find it a huge help for inching implements around into alignment. gg

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Nice job there ! Question on how it operates - It looks like you have one of your rear remotes feeding a 4 way diverter - right?? If so to operate you would select a diverter and then operate the rear remote valve. My question is what kind of switches do you have on the diverter valves ...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Not a stupid question at all because some valves do not hold very well at all. If my FEL moves, and I guess it probably does, the amount is not at all noticeable. I can leave the bucket or 3ph up on that tractor and for all intents and purposes they stay up for a long time. I have never...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Split some firewood yesterday. I use the 6' bucket on the M5640 to lift and hold a load at working height and within easy reach. gg

    Best ideas for adjustable lifting strap or chains?

    I like to use straps unless chains are clearly a better option. I have a pair of 4', 6', and a 9' that I use logging so they are on hand. They work good with a tooth bar or grapple. Happened to need a battery charge out on the landing today so took a picture. While talking straps - if you...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Just to be clear - The frost doesn't push them up out of the road like that. I go along and tip them up with the tooth-bar then turn around and pick them out with the grapple. gg

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Don't feel cheated !!! Our soil seems like it is 90% rock and we have deep frost in the winter. Our road was and old logging haul road which I have improved enough from year around use but the deep frost pushed up new rocks. Every spring as the frost comes out and the road settles back down I...
