    Grease gun recommendation

    I have a dewalt. I do not recommend it. I use red stickey grease. Grease leaks past the plunger seal and you end up with a tube full of grease behind the plunger which makes a mess to deal with when you pull the plunger out to replace the empty grease tube. I replaced the plunger at my...

    Seeming engine knock heard right at startup until engine is revved up - L4060

    If you changed the engine oil filter at the same time, you could possibly have gotten one with a defective anti drain back check valve. My 2014 M7060 has had initial startup knock since the first 100 hours. Last 3 to 6 seconds.

    2601 Electrical Issue

    I would tend to agree with you about a safety switch. Most safety switches can be bypassed for testing by pulling the connector and shorting across the terminals with a jumper wire. Good luck.

    Piping a grapple from rear remotes - suggestions?

    I die the same thing on my M7060. Works perfect. Cost about $220 for hoses, quick connects, protective sleeve material and zip ties. Considerably less than $1000 for 3rd function. If you are looking to run production then 3rd function is the way to go

    First regen at 16 hrs.

    My 2014 M7060 now has 600 hrs and regens every 10.8 hrs on average. When I start it, I automatically push the auto regen button and go to work. When the regen starts, I bump it to 2250 rpm and continue working. The regen has always been flawless. But....... I still hate all the fuel wasting...

    2014 M7060 w/ cab Radio Antenna

    :) UPDATE: Ordered this antenna from Amazon (A505-B Antenna) $19.99. It is very close to same as OE. Mounting screw hole in swivel is slightly larger and duck is 3" longer than OE. 1/4th the price of OE & Works perfect.

    2014 M7060 w/ cab Radio Antenna

    I broke my antenna off on a low limb. Does anyone know where to buy JUST the antenna mast? The $80.00 price for the antenna assembly is outrageous for a rubber antenna with a pot metal mount and 4 or 5 feet of coax with an RCA connector. Parts diagrams do not show it serviced separately.

    Time for some forum repair and maintenance.

    I just joined as a life time member. I hadn't thought about it, but as Dave eng said, one visit to the site will give someone way more than $40 worth of information. If the site goes tango united tonight, I am still money ahead from the ideas and advice recieved over the years.:)

    Land Plane strategy

    Creature Meadow is correct about the dual effectiveness of the water diverter bars. After installing the diverter bars, the whining from visitors went up, but the driveway erosion in heavy rains is nonexistent. :p:p:p

    M7060 rear mounted 3 ph control

    Has anyone found an aftermarket 3 point rear control. I fabed up a short notched piece to reach in and move the 3 point linkage, but it is not ideal. Its a PITA getting in and out of my m7060 cab to hook up implements. Many other brands offer this feature. Kubota offers it in many non USA...

    Sight glass

    I wish Kubota would put dye in the hydro oil so it would be easy to read on stick / site glass.

    M7060 Sunvisor mounts loose

    :mad: Anyone with a cab tractor having the sun visor mounting screws pulling loose? It appears that the screws are only secured into the thin headliner material. Does anyone have an easy fix that doesn't require dropping the headliner?

    Antifreeze Rated Temp

    Should be at -30 > -40. Ask dealer to recheck to verify the -10. If correct, they need to remove coolant and replace with straight antifreeze, then run and recheck. Me personally I would check it at delivery to be sure it was done.

    Intrusive Advertisers

    Advertisement such as Credenz is aggravating when you accidently roll the cursor over it and a popup you tube advertisement instantly lites off. I think most viewers would agree; if they wished to view the product, they will click on the add to get further information.

    DPF operating hints: calling all owners of new tractors

    I HAVE A '14 m7060. A percentage screen would be a great feature. Why they have it on some models and not others doesn't make sense.

    Many of the washer reservoirs are universal relative to the cap. Try automotive parts stores and / or dealers. Or your local bone yard.
