    M7040 Hydraulic problem

    My M7040 also has slight hydraulic issues once in a while. Like it gets locked. Move in opposite direction and then it will work. I was also told this was an issue with Kubota.

    Pros and Cons on M6800

    What I was saying is check the tire pressures. Mine came with way to much. Was not comparing machines. Light tractors will always ride rougher than heavy tractors.

    My cows are acting strange

    New one to me. I usually keep around 100-150 momma cows and feed hay all the time and have different kinds of hay rings and haven't noticed a difference in them. The slope is a little different on the pipes when they stick their heads but they usually eat wherever I put the new bale.:confused:
