    removing Inlet manifold

    I have to remove the Inlet manifold on a L3450, so that I can remove the Glow plugs. I can find 7 bolts, it looks like the eight is behind the Injection pump, but I cannot see it. It looks like the bolt flanges on the inlet manifold are the same on three ports, on a diagonal, and the fourth is...

    Glow plugs

    I just made my first attempt to change the glow plugs on my L3450. Does not seem the glow plugs will come out with the inlet manifold in place. Has any body found a procedure to replace the glow plugs without removing the manifold?

    Muffler for L3450

    Where would I look for an aftermarket Muffler for a L3450? The price for a Kubota muffler is so high I will have to wear ear muffs for a few years before I can afford one. Thanks Boyde

    L3450 PTO clutch (again)

    I am back, with the same problem. (See thread with similar title) First to back track. I eventually got the loader frame moved out of the way, and I adjusted the three bolts, as per the manual. Put it all back together and the PTO shifted without grinding, no implements attached. Later, with...

    L3450 rust fender

    My fenders on my L3450 are rusted through. Not the main part of the fenders, the back portion which holds the rear reflectors is the only part that is rusted through. Kubota only lists the whole fender as replacement. Any suggestions as to how I can replace this portion of each fender...

    Hydraulic Quick Disconnects

    I have a L3450 with hydraulic remotes at the back, with female disconnects. What should I ask for in terms of a matching male quick disconnect when having a new hose hose built? Thanks.

    RPM needed to run PTO

    Probably a silly question, but I will feel more confident knowing your opinion. To run an implement on the PTO at 540 RPM, the engine should be turning around 2200 RPM? Does this seem reasonable?

    Safety switches

    When I start my L3450, I have to wiggle the shuttle lever to activate the safety switch until the start switch energizes the starter. Can someone tell me where that safety switch is? It must need a little adjusting. Regards Boyde
