Here's a video taken last September of my L4701 Tractor with LA765 FEL and BH92 Backhoe. This is after the 4th trip for hydraulic repair (total of 5 repairs; last by a different dealer altogether). This tractor's hydraulic system has been plagued since I bought it new on July 3rd, 2015.

I have numerous posts on here recently about this problem as my tractor only has about a month left on it's warranty.

Kubota needs to quit pushing these types of problems back on dealers and take ownership themselves, especially when a client spends just under $50,000 on one trip.

Picture of me (11/13/15) when my spring loaded ratchet binder exploded in my face while trying to get out to the purchasing dealer the next day to pick-up my L4701. I was finishing up a large job that weekend and the dealer couldn't get my unit delivered until the middle of the following week......

I'm still paying the hospital bill on this one (no kidding). Took almost a month for the swelling to go down before the doctors could put my nose back in to place.

I still made it to the dealer the next morning and did pick up my tractor, after I spent the previous evening in the emergency room.

Yes there is certainly something wrong there. I can imagine your frustration with this and no one can step up to help you there. I wish you well and hoping for you, that Kubota will take care of you and the machine of course! Boy that looks like it hurt a lot! You gotta be one tough dude.
