Hi Everyone,
Firstly i just wanted to say what an awesome site this is. I found this site in a web search on the L1501. I purchased my new pride and joy back in Jan this year, and it's my first tractor. I have a small acerage in Sydney, Australia and this tractor does it all in a breeze.
I picked it up for a song, ($3200 with a slasher) but it has one small problem. The Hyrdaulic lift won't go up. It will hold if you can lift it up, and releases softly, but it just won't lift. Needless to say, after reading pages and pages in this forum about Hydraulic Lift problems, I think you guys have already answered this same problem many times. I'll drain the fluid and check the screen to see if it's clogged. If that doesn't work, i'll be back to pour over another section or two.
Also just wondering if there are any members here in Australia who'd know where to find parts for the L1501? I rang several Kubota dealers and they all seemed quite unhelpful. After reading the 10 myths about Gray Market tractors, i now know why. I've rung a few places around Sydney, but most people claim to not know what model i'm talking about. Any suggestions would be great. I do watch ebay, but rarely do i see parts for this model.
Cheers
Alison
