    M4 Work Shop Manual - No Hard Cover?

    Makes sense. Can the general public get copies of the .pdf manuals? Like a subscription or something?

    M4 Work Shop Manual - No Hard Cover?

    Today I talked to sales at Messick's (what a great group of folks.) I was told the following ... "Good afternoon. Several years ago, when us dealers ordered service manuals for our shop technicians, Kubota sent them to us in binders. They since stopped this service & we are unable to get them...

    M4 Work Shop Manual - No Hard Cover?

    For the money we pay, you should have Binder cover, printed manual, AND a thumb drive for the laptop. I'm going to try and post a picture of the cover my dealer gave me. Very kind ... so why can't I figure out how to order one of those ... brand new?

    M4 Work Shop Manual - No Hard Cover?

    Narrative - I like to work on my own tractors. I recently ordered a new Work Shop Manual (WSM) for our M4-071D. I was excited to get it because all I had ever had before were knock off copies. This one was supposed to come plastic wrapped and I assumed (dangerous) with a nice orange hard...

    Third Function Valve for LA1154 on M4-071D

    Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. The M4 is a very hydraulic hungry tractor. So much that is has a higher flow pump than a regular M7060. Even so any time you move the loader you feel it in the drive train. Again, thanks

    Third Function Valve for LA1154 on M4-071D

    Out of curiosity I pulled out the FEL manual from my 7060 … that FEL was model LA1154, but the FEL for the M4-071D is model LA1154A/EA. So I guess there is a difference, but what that entails is unknown. Still can’t understand the need for the accumulator in this application.

    Third Function Valve for LA1154 on M4-071D

    It’s not, it came with the third function valve kit. It’s even referenced in the loader installation/assembly manual

    Third Function Valve for LA1154 on M4-071D

    I recently purchased a Kubota third function kit for our M4-071D. I am installing this myself. We have a M7060 which already has a third function which was installed about 5 years ago. The kit for the M4 has an extra component, an accumulator, which is not part of the kit on our M7060. The...

    M7060 2nd Remote hard to get in and out of float position when hot

    Good morning, I have a 3 year old Kubota M7060 ROPS with 700+ hrs (owned since new.) The tractor came with a single self canceling remote which works great. This spring, before hay season I had a second stack of remote hydraulics installed with float feature to facilitate using a hydraulic...

    M6800S CAB Trailer Light Harness Connector

    Our Late 90's M6800S Cab tractor did not come with the then optional trailer light tow connector installed on the rear of the tractor. I am in the process of acquiring parts to add that feature. I have the outside hinged 7-pin connector, bracket mount, and rubber boot which I sourced from...

    M7060 ROPS - Tow Light Connector

    Can anyone tell me what type of implement/towing electrical connector comes on the M7060 ROPS? It's a flip up round keyed connector with 7 pins. Mine says "NANABOSHI", but searching for that is useless. Is this what is call a SAE J560? I have found nothing at TS or any hardware store. I am...

    FEL - LA1154 vs LA1154EC

    Thanks Wolfman. Sounds as reasonable as any other explanation. My reason for asking ... I was looking for a WSM that showed how to properly adjust the linkage on the boom/bucket control lever. I recently had a M7991 3rd function valve installed and the control lever is a little more "sloppy"...

    M7991 3rd function install on a M6060HD with LA1154

    Dave, Thank you for your reply. Very insightful as I also plan to install another rear remote. I have seen where Kubota offer different ones with different functionality. I will do my homework before I commit. Also, thanks for the adjustment portion. I really never considered having to...

    3 Point Bail Spear Question

    I need to purchase a 3 point bail spear for my M7060. I like the Tarter Heavy Duty Super Spear with 2-stage quick-hitch Category I and Category II pin hookups. Other build a similar spear, but this is available local, and beats shipping cost folded in by other manufacturers (King Cutter...
