    Def delete question

    This is the best path. The dealer, from your description, has done things wrong start to finish and has documented it. Your lawyer to their lawyer should be a short discussion, with their lawyer telling them to settle fast and make you happy. Before it goes to court, Kubota gets involved, and...

    L3010 losing reverse

    Workshop service manual totally overloaded my poor brain with more information than I could wade through ;) But that was when I was trying to get basic information about operating and owner service stuff. I'll revisit for this specific topic and see where it gets me;) Thank you.

    L3010 losing reverse

    My tractor is having a serious problem with reverse and I am clueless as to what/why it is happening. When I put it in reverse, I am no longer getting anywhere near the speed I had been getting. It’s down to less than half a mile per hour. Hydrostatic transmission, forward seems fine. Changing...

    Leveling rear blade

    I have the lower arms within a fraction of an inch of equal length, but the blade on the adjustable arm side is till close to 4 inches too high. There does not appear to be an adjustment on the blade for correcting this. Any thoughts?

    Pat's Easy change quick hitch

    Considering the downsides I've heard about quick hitches and the fact that they don't have ball joints either, I'm not that impressed by the hatchet job.

    Pat's Easy change quick hitch

    Thank you. I saw some words of caution about possibly needing longer toplinks and even PTO shaft issues. Good to hear that it was worth having, even if a new toplink was needed.

    Pat's Easy change quick hitch

    Anybody have experience with this product? I heard about it from Tractor Mike's YouTube and it certainly looks like something worth having. https://asktractormike.com/product/pats-easy-change-quick-hitch-category-1/

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Took the lid off the new to me L3010 and found the line from the coolant overflow was disconnected. Cleaned who knows how many years of crud from between the bucket and the pins. Cleaned more junk from behind the dash as I tried to figure out why the throttle would not move. The linkage was good...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Saw an example where someone had welded expanded metal inside their grapple, making it effective for picking up smaller debris, still allowing dirt or water to pass through and preventing the vast majority of rear penetrations. I believe it was daveknowshow on YouTube.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Repaired the gouges dug in the driveway when I dragged the pallets with my sawmill in them up the drive last week. Tractor arrived After the sawmill, or I wouldn't have had to drag the pallets. Then I lifted the sawmill head assembly with the tractor so I could move forward with assembling the...

    Where does your Orange live? Join location Groups!!!

    I was interested in the idea, but I guess other people were not. Not even enough interest to update the introductory post to remove something that isn't supported.

    Grapple recommendations for an L3010 with no 3rd function

    I'm also working with a Woods 1012 FEL on this tractor, which appears to matter in terms of SSQA availability - so far I can't find one. I've seen the Titan adapter plates where the buyer needs to fabricate the actual attachment to the loader, and I'm not this guy ;) I've not the tools, the...

    Grapple recommendations for an L3010 with no 3rd function

    If a bolt on fell in my lap for $350 I would probably jump on it too. But it would still cost me another chunk for the hydraulics. It really doesn't make much sense to me to include used prices in the discussion, because that's so much a matter of luck and location. What one person may find in...

    Grapple recommendations for an L3010 with no 3rd function

    I've got 20 acres of woods. Tractor's going to do a lot of work servicing our sawmill, moving slash, some work clearing trails that's likely to include bucket and grapple work as well as some mowing. Something like Everything Attachment's 55" Wicked Root Grapple looks really appealing, but...

    Grapple recommendations for an L3010 with no 3rd function

    Just got an L3010 with a total 1300 hours and an engine that was just replaced last year. Has a Woods 1012 loader and the pin attachment system. I want to get a grapple on this beast, but I don't know what my options are with a 20 year old tractor. It's also my first tractor, so the learning...
