    HST Whine.....Gone.......!

    Please understand if I don't agree with your assessment. Totally effing ridiculous to assume that lightweight foam has ANY consequence to strength, stability, etc. Real world, not frickin' lawyers. Will have zero affect on resell to anyone but idiots. Doesn't bother me a bit, unlike that...

    HST Whine.....Gone.......!

    Like most folks, the HST whine on my Kubota was horrible. I have a 3301, and one of my neighbors has a BX with a FEL. We have both complained about the noise for some time. He recently filled his ROP bars with an expanding foam and got a six decibel reduction as measured where his head would...

    Rear Blades - Is Blade Tilt Important?

    Guess it depends on expected (and unexpected) usage. I have had tractors for some 30 years and never had much use for side or top tilt, but it was a pain to manually adjust the oem screw adjustments. Recently we had a really bad tornado/windstorm that devastated our woods. Knowing that I...

    L3301 Rear Remotes for Top 'n Tilt

    The controls seem to work very well where they are. I naturally rotate my body/head to the right to look back at the box blade to set the correct pitch to the blade, and my right hand fits very easily onto the levers. I did have to move the pto engage lever a couple inches forward to get...

    L3301 Rear Remotes for Top 'n Tilt

    Here are some pics of my installation of rear remotes and cylinders for T'nT on my 3301. I had installed a Long 3rd function valve previously and had wanted to additionally add the rear remotes. I hope this may help someone as I had been helped here before. The valve assembly is a Prince...

    L3301 fel?

    I have the 525 loader on my 3301, and you will want to be careful not to put too much pressure on just one of the side plates of the quick attach. Recently I had a couple short logs in my grapple and did not see that a limb had raised one of the quick attach levers, which allowed one side of...

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    OK, I finally rounded up all of my components, but have a question on plumbing the Prince (Wolverine) 2-spool valve for the rear remotes. From my 3rd function valve, I will now go to the new Prince remote In port. As purchased, the remote is configured with an in and an out. Should the return...

    RhinoHide Canopy

    Thanks to a recent tornado, I have recently been using my L3301 in the sun. Bought a Westendorf quick attach canopy in matching orange. Really good quality and sure made a difference working in the sun. Because of the quick attach feature, canopy was a little high. In an effort to lower it...

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    Nope, I don't have more than your picture. I was under it the other day & I thought I remember 4 connections, one is the steel pipe one on the side. Sorry.

    La525 on my l3301 uneven lift

    Rich there is a good chance one of your quick attach mounting 'plates' has been twisted during your incident and it takes about 1/2" of take-up play to get them to 'sync up' again & lock securely. Since the hydraulics will move the cylinder with the easiest resistance first, you will see that...

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    Yes it is going on my L3301, but my pump assy does not look like your picture. I have at least one more line coming out of it, but I do get what you are saying--that it is OK to tee into return line, just not the power beyond 'pressure' line, as Kenny had said in earlier post.

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    OK Kenny, I got it now. Your description and the diagram tells me what I needed to know. Thanks again for taking the time to help me figure this out--and maybe someone else later. Philip

    Canopy / sun shade

    Hey Missouri, I too have the same issues with a canopy for my L3301. I found two companies that make quick release/attach mounts for their canopies. The best appears to be the Westendorf Dura Poly canopy at 45" X 52" long. It is the priciest at $510 plus frt for my tractor, but has the best...

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    Here are a few photos of the W.R. Long 3rd function valve installed to power the grapple on my L3301 with LA525 loader. Hopefully someone can help me figure out where/how to connect a future 2-spool valve remote for TnT cylinders for my rear box blade. Thanks

    Ok, Kenny, I will. Just got back off the road. Will send tomorrow.

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    Thanks Kenny. How/where would I connect another remote/valve assy. in addition to the one I added for the grapple.

    TNT, FEL & grapple with 3rd function?

    Hey everybody, been lurking & looking for a while—thanks for all the good info. While I have read several threads about adding top & tilt, I am still a bit confused. I just added a grapple for my FEL, with a 3rd function valve. I also want to add power back to another remote to power the TNT...
