    M6-141 50 Hr Service....15 GALLONS of Hydraulic oil? Don't Think So!

    All I was trying to do is share the build with other tractor owners. IF IT DOESN'T WORK FOR YOU, DON'T USE IT! I wasn't interested in being on the bottom of a pile-on from a bunch of people who spend more time behind their computer screen than they do in their tractor seat. I spend 40-60 hours...

    M6-141 50 Hr Service....15 GALLONS of Hydraulic oil? Don't Think So!

    You know Kubota inflates the crap out of their parts and supply prices. When I can buy a WIX, Donaldson, Baldwin, or other name brand filter I do,,, same with seals, bearings, Motor and Hydro oil, and whatever other generic parts that are IDENTICAL or interchange. When it comes right down to...

    M6-141 50 Hr Service....15 GALLONS of Hydraulic oil? Don't Think So!

    Well... the filter has a magnet to catch the bits of metal. Did the same with my L6060 when it was new (about 2900 hrs now), and it was a HST! If the metal shavings were a problem it would have reared its head by now.

    M6-141 50 Hr Service....15 GALLONS of Hydraulic oil? Don't Think So!

    Did my 50 hr (at 84 hours) The WSM says to dump the ENTIRE hydraulic oil supply and put in fresh. $420 worth of the stuff! Well I figured that was a pile of Bull Manure. Oil doesn't really go bad; it just gets dirty. ESPECIALLY in only 50 hours. Way back in my old feeble mind, I remembered...

    Should I sharpen my brush hog blades?

    I agree that in a perfect world, this is the way to go! BUT.... (there's always a BUT) in the real world, unless you just finish cut lawns your blades will look like this: Disclaimer: I am a professional, my company mows thousands of acres a year, and the above blade has less than 40 hours on...

    SVL 95-2s fluctuating hydraulic power issue

    To revive an old thread.... I have the same problem (at least with the back pressure) It just blew out an aux oil cooler. Any ideas why there's a 250 psi+ back pressure on the return?

    Clever idea.... my main need of trailer lights is for a hay ride as well! That said I'd sure like flashers too.

    Trailer Electric Receptacle

    Dealer says they are only on the large frame tractors (M series and up). Claims the M style receptacle will not fit my L. He told me that If I could get a Euro model number, he might be able to special order it

    Trailer Electric Receptacle

    I have a L6060 and occasionally need to haul a trailer on the road. I know the EURO machines all have a trailer receptacle because the law requires brakes. I have no real need of brakes (wouldn't mind having them though) because I'm in Florida and there are no real hills, BUT I sure would like...
