    Got a little practice with my loader this weekend.

    I've always heard that practice makes perfect so I figured the best way to get better with my loader was to dig me a little hole. I got a lot of practice. When finished it is 80 feet long 8' wide and 6' deep in middle. Was digging down to drain culvert that had gotten buried over the years...

    Is 1000lbs to much

    I'm building me a ballast barrel for my L3901 with L525 FEL. I was going to make it 1000 lbs but I wonder if that is to heavy for my tractor. The 3 pt hitch lifting capacity is 1985lbs but says the max weight for a rotory cutter for example is 770lbs. The max for any implement it list is 926lbs...

    Hydraulic filter

    Just did the 50 hour service on my L3901DT with shuttle shift gear trans. Manual says not necessary to change hydraulic filter until 400 hrs. Seems like a long time till 1st service. Is this ok on the gear trans or would it be a good idea to go ahead and change it just to be sure.

    Riding wide with new wheel spacers

    Installed 3 1/2" BORA spacers on my L3901 tonight. Not to bad a job just took a little time but worth it. Should help raise my pucker factor mowing on these hills. Widened it to 70" outside rears. Feels much better now.I don't understand why Kubota doesn't make them where they could be set this...

So I built my own. patterned after a spear I have for a 3pt hitch. Angle on bottom fits over bucket cutting edge...

    50 hour and service intervals

    I have a new L3901DT with a manual trans. My manual says only change engine oil and filter at 50 hrs. Not hyd filter or oil nor anything else. Kubota web site says hyd filter but not oil. Manual also says oil and filter change every 400 hours. Web site says every 200. Mechanic that delivered...
