What GENIUS engineer designed the get up that holds the blades on the ZD1211..... I have had mine for 4 years and EVERY single time I change the blades I think about posting this rant. Instead of having a 30 MM bolt that holds the blade on. Or a shaft that you slide a blade over and a 30 MM...

Man Kubota usually does it right but HOLY COW. The ZD1211 blade holder get up sucks green donkey dicks. There's a CUP that you have to sit on top of the blade, then hold the splined shaft along with the twin spacer washers in place and THEN you can put the bolt on. Hard to do without having...

Anybody got a cure for a leaking rear remote coupler? I have 3 rear remote pairs on my L6060. They are all female quick connects hard mounted to the tractor. ONE of the 6 is leaking like crazy. Can I replace an O ring in it? I sure wish I could just replace the suspect coupler...

I am trying to find what the gear ratio is for this tractor so that I can calculate lead/lag. I cannot find this information in the shop manual or my owners manual. Does anybody have this info offhand? I think it’s 1.43 but am not sure and a lil bit of gear makes a big difference

L6060: Just started happening today. When you push the joystick forward to lower the bucket - it's as if the float function release is "catching" the lift will lower very slowly. Cycling the joystick seems to make it let go and operate properly. But it's back to the hanging up the next time...

My L6060 Hydro static has a problem - ME - I got a stick jammed underneath and it yanked the wires out of the plug that goes to the reverse circuit. I have rigged it by cannibalizing a headlight plug and crammed the little pins back into the plug (making a pigtail) but that only works so...

Today while clearing debris in Orange Beach AL, a limb got underneath my L6060 and ripped the wires out of the plug that handles reverse. Tractor will go forward when you depress the go pedal, but nowhere when you depress reverse. The screen tells me code 91 R CNG. I climbed under the...

I read on here that someone sought parts for an L285. There is a fellow near me that is parting his out. Says the engine and trans are good. He wants 8 bills for the whole kit n haboodle

My L6060 top n tilt cylinder bleeds down. Nothing else on my machine bleeds down. I have to constantly bump up on the tilt (not the top link) when bush hogging. Come to think of it.... I haven't ever really needed the tilt feature anyway.....does anybody have a leveling box that they are...

I have 2 JD MX6 bush hogs that I use in my small bush hogging business. I just experienced the infamous sheared output shaft (google John Deere MX6 output shaft failure if you want a treat). Instead of shelling out $2k to repair this one, I choked up the dough and bought a brand new Brown 416...

After doing my homework I have decided that the best way to get a wider R4 on the front of my L6060 is to replace the fronts with 12-16.5 R4's and the Rear with 21L-24 R4's. That will give me a positive Lead instead of the 3% lag that Kubota seems to think is okay from the factory. Can...

I have an L6060 with 10-16.5 front tires. I would like to put a 12-16.5 on there. Since I am 4WD, would this cause a problem due to height differential? I need a wider tire in the front because I often seem to bury my fronts in soft ground

I have resisted bypassing it, but it is getting worse (or I am losing weight). I now have to bounce down into the seat sometimes to keep it from shutting me down. Can anyone tell me if I can bypass it without removing the seat? I have removed the seat before and it is a pain to do. I'd...

I am used to paying about $10 a blade and buying in bulk a dozen at a time. Not for the ZD1211...noooo sir... Kubota makes the center hole 1 5/16"... I would have to bore out an aftermarket blade to use it. Gee thanks Kubota, I don't mind paying your crazy price for the SUDTII but Geez.

Sailing along cutting grass at 6 mph it shut down. A quick look at the dash and the parking brake light is on. Climb under the machine and I see that the safety switch housing has broken and is dangling. No way to repair without replacing the whole switch. So I rig a jumper wire - - aha, it...

After researching loader mounted lane cutters - I bought a TB-one by trailblazer. The limb ninja appears cheaply made and will not cut flat in front of the tractor. The Lane Shark came in second.... It has a tough frame and is made of thick steel. The Trailblazer however was a tad more...

I am considering a wider tire for the front of my L6060. I currently have 10-16.5 R4 tires on the front and 17.5-24 R4 on the rear. Have always heard the stupid question is the one that is not asked soo..... Would a 12-16.5 be 2 inches wider than the 10-16.5? I am assuming that the 12-16.5...

I am considering adding a "limb ninja" rotary cutter to the front loader. I have a set of unused remotes on the rear. The cutter requires a case drain. Anybody ever had to do this on one of these? Recommended tie in location? Recommended kit?

Night & Day! Spent 5 hours today bush hogging on the new (to me) L6060. I just have a couple of wounds to lick (Seat won't slide, & one Loader pin is seized). But going from a 39HP to a 62 hp machine WOW! I have never had a big machine with Hydrostatic trans, it's awesome for mowing around...

I have a Farntrac 545 that I bush hog properties with. It is 42 HP 37HP at the PTO. I swing a John Deere MX6 rotary cutter. The old school machine does good with the heavy cutter, but I have to slow down too much to keep from bogging in the heavy stuff. I also have an L3901DT that I use for...
