    Cant get started

    My low voltage solenoid connector on the starter gets loose. I just have to touch it and it will turn over and start.

    Cosmo tiller

    I've had no issues so far. I used it several times last season to till under my garden for winter, and worked up a new area of lawn that I cleared. After I stalled my tractor once when I hit a root, I realized the slip clutch was too tight from the factory, and I had to take it apart and...

    Transfer Switch for Generator Power in Outages

Sqd Homeline and Qo for newer panels can be found easily and cheaply online. Older sqd panels and...

    Cosmo tiller

    I finally decided to ahead and order a 72" Cosmo tiller. $2399 - free shipping. I just wanted to post a few preliminary thoughts and pictures for others. After ordering online, I did not get an email when it was shipped. After a week or so, I sent an email to the company stating that I was...

    Block heater ?

    A block heater was the first thing I installed my GrandL4060. I don't use the one in my 2018 Duramax, but I use the one in my Kubota frequently, and they are parked side by side in an unheated pole barn in N.Mich.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I had a friend cut down a 100' tall white pine that was over the pool deck I'm building. About 10 years ago half of the top came through our roof and closet ceiling. I've been resisting cutting it down but it was time. Now I have to clean it up.

    New whining noise

    So, possibly false alarm. Thank you for your responses. I checked the fluid level today, and it is 1/2 mark low - I don't know if that's 1/2 a quart or gallon. It was nearly continuous whining noise yesterday evening, but when I started it up today, no noise - just briefly in the first minute...

    New whining noise

    Good morning, Just a quick question for all you experts. Yesterday I disconnected the 3rd function hoses underneath my GrandL4060 to reroute them over the frame as recommended by another poster. When I was done I had a loose connection, and when I started it up, I pumped estimated 1/2 -1...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Hopefully the last big snow of the year - about 10"

    Cosmo tiller

    Thank you for the input. Greensvillejay, your post made me realize I had the wrong snowblower model # listed. I actually have a L4479 snowblower, 74". I have turf tires, so I measured the rear tire width appox. 66". I've seen several posts recommending the tiller be wider than the rear...

    Cosmo tiller

    I would like to purchase a tiller this spring - just for a small garden plot, and perhaps my father's down the street. It would only be used a couple of times a year, but sure save on the back operating a walk-behind. A couple of members have mentioned the Cosmo tillers on 3pointtiller.com -...

    Blowing snow - volume question

    Kevin - I have the same tractor (mine's a GrandL) and snowblower, which I bought 3rd hand last year with less than 500 hrs. It's my first tractor. I live in Northern Michigan snowbelt area. This is my 2nd winter using it. I haven't yet broken a shear pin - who knows - maybe the previous...

    Can anyone spot a common cause for my electrical issues?

    Sorry - I know it's been a while - just spotted your reply. Not the battery cable, but the ignition connector on the starter. It's happened a few times now. Eventually I will have to take a quick look at it, but for now every time it happens, I just wiggle or push on the coil connector and it...

    Steering boot repair?

    Here's the Youtube link: Replacing Kubota Tie Rod Boot the Easy Way - YouTube Just one "obvious" note - After replacing the boot I had a hard time getting the tie rod into the right position to thread back into the receiver. Never having done this before, I was trying to push on the wheel...

    Steering boot repair?

    On my Grand L 4060 , I just noticed today that the right side steering knuckle boot? Has a pretty good tear in it. It is unlikely to see anything other than snow here in N.Mich until spring. Can it wait for repair until then? Also, any thoughts on how difficult a project it is. Thanks in...
