It took me 50 hours to get to the 50 hour service change :p

To total those 50 hours it took me ~8 months of tractor work and I believe I was there.

I bought a used BX1880 in Sept. It was a 2019 model. After having it for a week I was checking the
air cleaner, as it looked a little dirty under the cowling. The air cleaner was dirty and needed replacement. On further examination I determined that the 50 break in maintenance had not been done. I was a little
worried so contacted a Kubota dealer, and they assured me if it were under 100 hrs not to worry.
So I did all the maintenance at 85 hours. New engine oil and filter, trans oil, air and HST filters. Runs
great, and I don't expect to do much until 200 hrs now.

i bought my tractor in 2014. Not a kubota and not new. It has 541 hours on it. Today it has 549 hours. I'm wearing it out. Or actually the weather is, really starting to show some rust on the fenders and hood.

Time for you to sand, prime, and paint the rust spots. It will help to keep your tractor from rusting any further and preserve its value. It doesn't have to be professional looking, it just needs to keep the rust at bay.

My L3301 was delivered Aug 2021. It now has 438 hrs and used often on our 30 acre farm. Mostly bush hogging driveway maintenance, dirt work ect. I would be lost without my tractor.
Had no trouble except one flat on the front, and that POS pto cable.

My L3901 was delivered 12/14/21 and I just hit the 100hr mark yesterday. Mostly bush hog hours or scooping up the horse poop and shavings and relocating them further from the barn.
