    dismantling backhoe cylinders

    Thank you for the reply. I was expecting the end caps to be really tight. If not so tight, I am wondering if I could stick a couple of short bolts into the pin holes and grab the heads of the bolts with a large pipe wrench - I already have access to a 24 inch pipe wrench on site. I don't...

    L650 backhoe - need measurements

    Greetings: The seals are shot on my late father's backhoe and I intend to rebuild the problem cylinders. To do so, I will need a pin spanner to unscrew the cylinder endcaps. I have the metalworking tools to make my own spanner but the backhoe is 1000 miles from my location. So if you...

    settling estate - determining value of L295DT

    Thank you for the replies. I am pleased that you think the value of the package is greater than $7K. D2Cat: Is that really a reasonable price for the 2WD tractor you pointed to? I see that it has been on Craigslist for about 4 weeks (then again maybe it sold 3.5 weeks ago and the seller...

    3-pt hitch control levers - L295DT

    North Idaho Wolfman I did not see your message until after I left Texas. I sorted thru the photos I took while the BH was still attached and only found one image that partially shows the attachment of the BH. I am not following your 4th link and where it mounts. I will say that once I...

    3-pt hitch control levers - L295DT

    It appears that the 2nd lever is the draft control lever. I could not find the raise / lower lever for the 3-pt hitch. I am having difficulties controlling the 3pt hitch implement. When I lift up the 3-pt hitch the implement does not remain static. It either continues to lift up...

    3-pt hitch control levers - L295DT

    Thanks for the link. Definitely not the PTO (speed) or the trans shift levers. The levers I am asking about are the ones that control the lift/lowering of the 3-pt hitch. Located to the right of the operators hip. I looked up the link earlier on my phone and only saw one link, not two side...

    3-pt hitch control levers - L295DT

    Question about a new to me L295DT 3 pt hitch levers. The lever furthest way appears to be the lift / lower lever. Is the lever closest to the operator a fine adjust? I searched the forums and read about float control - no idea if that is what it is. I mounted the Kubota 3 pt back hoe and...

    hydraulic fluid level check - L295DT

    I was working the tractor a bit this morning, doing a bit of yard work prior to putting it up for sale and after about an hour of use I occasionally heard a whine or whistle when operating the FEL. I am thinking I need to check the fluid level. I found a 2 gal jug of UDT that my father had...

    Engine shutdown issue

    Thank you all for your replies. I actually looked at the shut off lever yesterday, before asking my question, and since it was linked with the hand accelerator lever and foot pedal, I wondered why would Kuboto have a second hand throttle - especially one that was so ackwquard to actuate. I...

    Engine shutdown issue

    L295DT, I am only able to stop the engine using the compression release. How is it supposed to shut off-with the ignition switch? If so, where might I find the fuel shut off (solinoid?)? I'm trying to fix a few minor issues before putting it up for sale.
