    M108s slow 3-point hitch

    The flow control on remotes limits how fast remote would operate something, such as not slamming my hay cutter on the ground or sending hay rolls flying across the field from the bale kicker (both examples speaking from experience:p )

    M108s slow 3-point hitch

    Thanks guys I'll check remotes to see if fully disengaged. Everything y'all said makes perfect sense. We've been cutting hay with this tractor, you can set 3pt and it will hold all day, you can lift cutter head with remote and they work as they should. We finished baling and went to move hay...

    M108s slow 3-point hitch

    3-point hitch is strong and will pick up anything, it's just slow about doing it.

    M108s slow 3-point hitch

    Nothing. It has a loader, but is most noticeable when picking up hay.

    M108s slow 3-point hitch

    I've owned this tractor for more than ten years. Use it now to cut, rake, ted, and move hay. The outlets work fine and at good speed, but the 3-point hitch is really slow. I've turned the speed setting under seat, but see no change. We do most of our mechanic work ourselves, so any advice would...

    remote sticking in float position

    I bought this one used, so I'm kinda on my own. I'll figure out something. I always do. Sounds like I've got to get me some Zep 2000. Sounds like this stuff is good enough to be stored with the duct tape and baling wire.

    Brand New to Forum and Need Advise

    google worksaver, they have a full line of loader stuff and other attachments. Not real heavy duty, but will be fine for a small tractor if they fit.

    Pros and Cons on M6800

    I don't know about the M6800, but I've owned a 8540 and 9540, presently own a 105 and 108. They all ride rough because of the short wheel base IMO. I grew up on the JD 3010, 4020, 4320, and 4430. These long, heavy JD's ride much better, but I don't have time to work on them. The Kubota's are...

    remote sticking in float position

    I understand, I have a 108S that works fine, little hard to get out but very workable. I bent the handle on the 105 trying to get it out of the float position before I took the cover off the remote handles to get to the back of the mechanism. Since, I found it easier to open the back window and...

    belt squeal every now and then

    Thanks for the advice, I'll check for cracking. I think I found the problem, in another post I read something about being 1" slack on the long side of the belt and mine was too loose. Tighten the belt and no more sqealing, not enough pressure when compressor kicked on I guess.

    belt squeal every now and then

    belt squeal every now and then, but a/c is cooling fine. I think something is fixing to go wrong, what can I do to stop the problem, whatever it is?

    remote sticking in float position

    thanks for the reply, i'll try a different lubricant. I agree that the Kubota remotes do suck as far as smoothness. I think i may redesign the angle of the cable going to the box to get more leverage to push the main cylinder back.

    remote sticking in float position

    I have a Kubota 105s that we use for pulling a batwing bushhog, cutting hay, and raking hay. All of these task require the remote hydraulics to float along the ground. Once you get the remote lever in the float position I can't get it out without tapping on the end of the valve at the end of the...
