    Welder plug elec question

    Not really directly Kubota related but this bunch of folks here are so darn intelligent I thought I would ask. I just picked up a nice used Miller Thunderbolt 230v ac/dc arc welder and it has a 3 prong plug (maybe 50 amp?) and I want to power it from my 5k Honda generator that has a twist lock...

    How much abuse to loader and front axle/drive unit?

    OK. I've read the posts about stripping out front axle drives and overloading and such and now I'm getting concerned. My '99 GL3010 had 950 hours on it when I bought it but was (and still is) in good condition- better than average. Now has 1150 hours on it. I had an old corn crib taken down...

    What weight oil for winter?

    I searched with no luck. I have 15w40 rotella but was thinking 10w30 synthetic might be better for midwest winter? I need my tractor for clearing snow and woodcutting chores. Thanks

    I don't want to spend much, only need something occaisionally and don't need to lift to double stack or anything. mainly just be able to move pallets with less than 1000 pounds load.

    Horsepower and operational technique

    I welcome any comments or constructive advice. I recently bought a 3pt 72" rough cut mower for my L3010 after months of looking and research. I was advised against anything bigger than a 60" by a couple people and told by others that 72 was no problem. I am within the power range by the mower...

    King Kutter Professional Flex Hitch mower

    I've been needing a better 3pt rough cut mower deck for awhile and I looked at a lot of used (used up) junk and priced new ($$!) from the major heavy duty brands ie LandPride, Woods, Bush Hog. I was hoping to stay under $1k and was getting discouraged. I found the brand new 72" King Kutter pro...
