What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

Cool pic!
Just curious, why say NW AZ if you are from SE NV? (Mesquite Nevada)
Inquiring minds want to know.

Our house is in Mesquite, but the tractor is on our 10 acre rural property in Scenic AZ, just about 7 miles away!

Aha! Makes sense, Thanks!

Took 'Jaws' out for a test drive. Cleaned up a downed limb from a recent storm. This EA Wicked grapple is a beast and there is a learning curve involved. At first, I would grab maybe 1 branch. By the end of the evening, I was able to grab multiple pieces on a consistent basis. For the smaller, bulkier stuff, dropping into the pile like a scrap grapple or the 'teddy bear plucking quarter eater' at Chucky Cheese seemed to work best. The large limb was all my BX could do to just get it off the ground! After chunking it in half, no problem at all with the weight.
Regards.

Yes, that's a mouthful.

Been painting some pieces for the BX. Tool box, pallet forks, and rear hydraulic valve.

I'm about to embark on taking the front wheel assist prop shaft out of my M9000 open station and replacing the coupling. It's getting sloppy and needs renewed. I hear it's not a big deal other than laying on a creeper and working overhead.. Got the couplings and roll pins from my dealer last week. Due to the C19 stuff, they delivered them to the farm.

Temp dropped this evening to 63* I froze out mowing had to stop.

Well I used my 10 foot pull type box blade with my L6060 today. First time, had only used on recently sold JD with 50% more hp and at least that much more weight. Had no problems pulling it moving dirt and cutting some to get it level. A full ten foot wide box blade...mind you as my tractor expert said, just take a little cut..

I watched it being unloaded yesterday and parked it in the yard. Finally here! Oh, I also measured all of the dimensions to make sure it fits under a 9' high OH door. Would have been a shame to have to raise the garage a couple inches. And, the wife came out and took her first look "I thought it would be bigger" she said! Dealer experience was great and I really am liking this tractor.

 

[Bmyers]

Your wife knows how to hurt a man......" "I thought it would be bigger" she said! "

 

[Magicman]

The correct question then would be "how do you know"??

That is a very nice machine no matter how small it is.

It's not the size... it's how you use it!

 

[pokey1416]

Boy I sure set myself up for that one! The wife has been laughing on this for 2-days...I might have to put my foot in my mouth more often

Used my forks to unload some building materials. Also handy to lift the fifth wheel hitch in and out of the truck box during camping season - I can't believe I used to just pick it up and throw it in there.

My new 60 inch finish mower was delivered today at 11 am.. still in the crate... greased everything checked gear box oil and fine tuned the 3 point linkages to fit correctly..

by 1 I was mowing.. by 1.02 I was smelling rubber and saw smoke coming from it.. after adjusting the belt tensioner, was to tight mowed the lawn..

Bit of a learning curve from mowing with my old bx23s to this it cuts very nice.. and I didn't take out the fence or any trees in the tight spots..

My tractor was delivered on the 10th and the mower was on backorder..

The bx was definitely better for tight spots and mowing close to my 600 or so feet of fence but it's nice to be able to back under trees and not hit branches with the canopy or rops. That and I have a 36 inch scag for the fence and tight spots

I was just at a dealer today looking at the grooming mowers. Did you think about a 72 inch mower so that you trim better? That is the direction that I am leaning for my L2501.

The wife bet me $10 she could get the grease off my headliner!

Yes.. after I ordered the 60 inch.. doh! I was going to pay the 600 some difference for the 72 but it was another 3 week wait.. pretty sure I'm stuck with this one now.. but there is a nice l245 with a 60 inch mmm for a few hundred more then I paid for just this 60 inch mower that I'm seriously considering buying but the seller hasn't responded to my messages.. humm

Changed my hydraulic fluid and filter, installed a new fuel filter (discovered the previous owner removed it and ran it without one), and installed a new shift boot (the source of water in my trans).
