    New Kubota L2501 ordered

    I would stick with a 5 foot rotary cutter. I can speak from experience that a L 2501 will handle it well. You may have to slow down in really thick grass or tall brush, but it will chop it all up well. I have the LP 1860 (mid grade ) rotary cutter. I mowed my neighbors field with the LP...

    Woodland Mills WG 24 stump grinder

    Got a call from R&L carriers this evening. My WG 24 stump grinder will be here Thursday of this week. I predict at least half a tank of diesel will get used this weekend. I have several stumps and a few roots that I intend to grind. I will post pics and a review info after I get it. I think...

    Kubota L2501 - initial review

    Mine has the guard. It was there before the grill guard was installed by the dealer and remained after. My L 2501 was purchased new March 2018.

    L2501 first fail to start.

    Make sure you are not accidentally pushing your hydrostat pedal with the tractor in gear while trying to start it. I did this a few times and it caused me to start looking into things like you are.

    How much grease for loader?

    So I really use the loader and I do a good job of making sure it is greased for about every 10 hr of use. I usually put 2-3 pumps of grease per zerk. It depends on whether I hear it pop or come out the side of the bushing. I do notice I have fair amount of grease that works it way out and gets...

    L2501 Reclaiming My Meadows

    The quality of the job looks great. So with the flail mower you set the height and let the mower roll along the contour of the ground? How does the L2501 handle the really think grass and brush? I have 174 hours on an L2501 since March of 2018. It is an impressive machine.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Cut up two “blow over” trees for my in-laws and moved them using my grapple. I have a 60 inch Lanpride grapple for my L2501. It and the bucket get about equal time on my tractor. The grapple makes cutting trees and brush a more managable tasks. Beats loading everything by hand. I can go...

    Woodland Mills Stump Grinder for L 2501 HST

    Just starting to think about a Woodland Mills WG24 stump grinder for my L 2501 HST. It is rated for tractors with PTO of 20-50 hp. The HST L2501 is rated at 19 PTO HP. Reviews on the Woodland Mills website has one L 2501 HST owner saying his tractor runs it fine. Other owners 18.5-20 PTO HP...

    Tractor is a blessing

    So thankful for my Kubota. Over past two weeks I have used every attachment and implement one or more times. Need to cut a tree? The grapple or bucket are both back savers. Brush hogging, tilling, and spraying are now all done with less strain than with smaller yard equipment that I used for...

    HST noise. B3350

    My L2501 HST got quieter after 34 hours. My son and I both independently noticed it. I have been wearing hearing protection while operating it. I noticed it while my son was operating it.

    L3901 Rear Weight How much?

    My L2501 handles a LA525 loader of topsoil well. In NE GA our topsoil has a fair amount of clay mixed with it. It is not full of organic matter. The L2501 should be similar in weight and dustribution to your L3901. I usually have A BB that weighs 360 lb along with a quick hitch that weighs...

    New l2501

    Congratulations! I bought an L2501 in April. I have 36 hours on it. Lots of tilling and loader work. This included tilling a coworkers yard for seeding grass and moving almost 3 truckloads of topsoil. Some mowing. I have cut several trees and moved them. A EA grapple is on my wish list...

    Tiller for L3901

    I am running a Bush Hog RTG60 on a L2501. I went with a forward rotating tiller as I always found forward rotating walk behind tillers more useful. You can lower the back shield on my tiller and force it to churn and pulverize you soil. You can let the back shield up and let it scatter your...
