    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    On the drop speed lever there are 2 black knobs under the seat, I'm assuming one is for drop speed and the other is for front and back for a front bucket attachment. Do you know exactly what these knobs are for?

    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    I fixed both the pto issue and the steering. I knew the steering had it's own separate system because a hose busted a few years back. I just had forgot about it. The pto had a small stick stuck on the floor between the linkage and the floor plate preventing it from engaging and the steering...

    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    Well I took a look at the filter and on the side facing away from you there was a huge dent in the filter. I'm gonna replace that tomorrow and see if that fixes my problem.

    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    I will look into that tomorrow. Is there a way to actually test the pump itself. I've got my doubts on it being the pump since it just quit all of a sudden but I haven't had this tractor long enough to fully understand the hydrostatic system.

    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    I will look close at it. Is that line you are referring to the one that goes from the rear of the tractor down under the right side of the floor to the pump and filter. I also noticed my hydraulic filter has a nice sized dent in it possibly from a limb hitting it whenever i was clearing brush.

    M8950DT Hydraulic Issues

    On my 8950dt as I was using it the other day clearing some land all of a sudden my 3pt stopped working and along with that it began to get hard to turn. So I checked the fluid and it was a quart or so low so I topped it off but that didn't solve my problem. Also I checked to see if my pto would...

    M8950 Charging system

    Battery voltage with the engine running is 14.3. I checked the fuses before I found the regulator wire unplugged but will check again to make sure.

    M8950 Charging system

    After removing the side wall from the dash, I found the problem. The regulator was unplugged. I'm guessing it somehow got stuck to the clutch linkage and whenever the clutch was pressed, it unplugged it. Thanks for the help. There is still one problem though, the battery light is still on, on...

    M8950 Charging system

    I've checked the power at the battery while running and it was reading 12.4. Also checked the power on the post of the alternator it was reading 12.4 also. The red wire and the 3 wire plug from the alternator goes to the cab.

    M8950 Charging system

    I have a m8950 and recently the charging system on my tractor is not working. It is running off battery power alone. I've replaced the alternator and still only getting 12v at the battery when running. Is there a inline fuse or perhaps an external regulator on this tractor? Also if someone can...

    M8950dt wont start

    I got the problem fixed. The kill switch linkage grounded out the solenoid and burnt the wire. There was a rubber boot over the feed wire of the solenoid that had slid up the wire and wasn't covering the post on the solenoid. It the solenoid has to be on at all times to keep the tractor running...

    M8950dt wont start

    I seen the solenoid and it's on the bottom toward the back of the injector pump. How many volts should it be getting and also should it come on when I turn the key or crank it over. And what is the purpose of having this shutoff valve?

    M8950dt wont start

    I figured it wasn't venting properly. Does it vent through the fuel cap itself ? And also I managed to get fuel all the way to the injection pump but I can't get it past there. I need some info on where to buy the manuals at.

    M8950dt wont start

    My Kubota m8950 won't start. I was riding it yesterday and all of a sudden it just quit. So I made sure it had fuel in it. And when I open the fuel cap you can hear air rushing in the tank as if it had a vacuum on it. I'm assuming air might have got in my line. It will start if I spray ether in...

    M8950 Hydraulic Steering

    Sorry i understand that the Dexron ATF will work for the steering. What i meant to ask was the actual hydraulic fluid for the rear. According to what i read it calls for a Kubota UDT fluid. I was wondering if there was a cheaper alternative in place of the expensive fluid that Kubota sells.

    M8950 Hydraulic Steering

    I appreciate that guys. I knew it looked and smelled just like atf. For the hydraulic fluid, I know Kubota sells their brand but is there a cheaper alternative?

    M8950 Hydraulic Steering

    Re: Kabota Hydraulic Steering When the hydraulic hose busted there was a red fluid that sprayed out. For one I don't know what type of fluid to get nor do I know where to put it in at. I'll post some pics of the hose I replaced and try to trace where it leads to. But after I replaced the hose...
