    Safety recall on my Z726XKW-3-60

    I found this online a few minutes ago as I wanted to see if my old 2017 Kawasaki on my Husqvarna Zt was effected. It seems only the 2023 models are impacted at this time. "The recalled engines are model year 2023 FR730V, FR691V, and FR651V. The engine model and serial number are located on the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Moving a bit of dirt again today as well as cutting the back field. Then it happened, oh well time for the next round of maintenance. I already have the filters and fluids on hand.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    A little bit of gravel and I can finally get to the back of the property without driving all the way around the outer edge. 2 - 12 inch drains to handle the rain and run off. The Kubota moved a fair amount of dirt for this one.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Hah, I know it's not orange. I let the Kubota rest in the shed today after moving a bunch of dirt and rocks yesterday filling in around some 12 inch drainage pipe so I can cross a wet weather drainage area. Today I woke up the ole Ford, changed the fuel filter, changed the oil and filter and...

    The Eclipse

    I made it home today from my trip and can say my trip was none of the hype that the media had projected. We were in a rural area of New York on Lake Erie and the local restaurants and wineries had signs $20 for parking etc. It was a a bit cloudier than we hoped but still got the full...

    I think I've made my retirement decision....

    I bailed and joined the retiree club January 1st this year and am wondering how I had time to work. I too was in management, burned out and becoming increasingly frustrated with the political correctness nonsense and not being able to fire those that desperately needed to be fired. So far I am...

    Underground storage

    Man this brings back memories. My sister bought one of these new back in 77, the ugliest green color I have ever seen. She had good luck with it and gave it to one of my brothers around 90 and he drove it until it finally met its match with a guard rail after he dozed off on the interstate.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Was out working in the yard and decided to till the one of the garden spaces for my cool weather crops which I will plant this weekend. Garden was crusty dry on top but still a bit damp underneath but worked up pretty good. I also had a bit of a pucker when my loader stopped working correctly...

    The Eclipse

    Wait a minute, my wife and I are heading up to Westfield, NY. I booked it last year with my planned retirement before the hype set in. We are hoping for sunny skies but it will still be an experience for the total eclipse even if there are some lake effect flurries. :ROFLMAO:

    is a Subsoiler the right tool for this job?

    Agree 100%, I have done this in a few areas that used to stay mucky until mid summer. Now the rain just flows and drains. Much nicer to cut in the spring without burying the zero turn.

    Looking to trade my new R1s for R4s (L2501)

    I believe R4s are going to require different rims as well. Much wider than the R1 ag tires.

    No one ever warned me about this side effect of buying a boat!

    I agree, love the Kubota but love the boat a bit more!

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I am still using my old "Horse" Troy Built tiller. It is a bit newer than the ones you guys have, I purchased it in 1989. It has the industrial Briggs 7hp engine with electric start but I have not had a battery on it in 30 years as it starts on the first pull. I carried it down to the pond...

    Picked up a second hand L3901 with just over 300 hours on the clock in 2019. Now have over 780 hours of good service out of ole "Miss K" as my wife calls her. ;)

    ZD-1211 Stalled on incline

    I had issues with mine where it would stall when activating the PTO with a weak/faulty battery. Not enough power to activate the electric clutch and keep everything going. Replaced the battery and worked like a champ ever since. The only other item that comes to mind is the switch for the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I prefer to seed in the fall, but the ground was just soft enough to do it now. Once it gets hot that ground gets hard as a brick. I plan to reseed it in the fall as well as the rye will have run its course and then it should be good!

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thanks, I put some K31 fescue and some annual rye to come up quick before it washes out.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Worked on regrading the slope down to one of the small ponds. Years of cattle heading down to get water made ruts and bumps 2' to 3' deep. A real pain to cut the trim with a brush cutter as you could not get much stable footing. Well I took several buckets out and used that to fill old stump...
