Good afternoon. My xt1 46” just stopped moving forward and reverse. Motor is running strong and belts are all fine as is all the linkage. Any other ideas in what to check for? Thanks much!

I’m in the don’t clean old grease camp. However, I usually have a small awl with me when I grease as a quick push of the ball on the zerk with the awl is usually all is needed to get grease flowing again.

What surface is your driveway? That will help guide the best answer.

Just a grade 2 bolt. So far (knocking on wood) I have yet to need it for this blower.

Nice, I have the same one that I picked up for 250 bucks 6 years ago and it works great behind my L3540 with just under 30 HP at the pto. With the HST sometimes I have to go slow, but it works for up to 18” or so. It used to be blue, but got some orange paint.

How bad is night time visibility? I know in vehicles dark tint makes it hard to use in the dark.

There’s a reason he chucks the saw! Wowza.

Thanks very much, that made it easy. A quick online order with a few other filters and the new brackets were here in a day. I got both sides and I am glad I did as the other one was right behind it. They were both rusted and stressed. Even though she lives indoor now, her first 8 years were outside.

I was helping a neighbor move some large chunks of a tree that he felled yesterday, when I noticed the seat mount broke on one side of my L3540. I’ll call my dealer on Monday, but does anyone know if I can get a new mounting tab or do I need to replace the whole seat? Ugh

L3540 - YouTube Please check out the quick video that shows hydro fluid steadily dripping out near one if the valves. All fitting are tight and it just started happening over the last few weeks. This summer I had a Kubota tech work on the tractor including removing the rear third function valve...

Hi, does anyone know anything about this 6’ bobcat cutter? I picked it up a few years ago for 1000 bucks, and it runs great. It has a shear bolt and a stump jumper with full chains, but runs great and seems HD. I can’t find anything about it online. Thanks!

I have the same one and have used it the last few years, it works great and was made by Snowmachines Corp, which is out of business now.

My L3540 with the LA514 loader struggles with full pallets of green maple. Also, I didn’t have my 6’ rotary cutter on while moving the first one and didn’t do that again! It was way too light in the rear end (with loaded R4s)!

Thanks again, it worked out great. Putting a propane salamander in front of each tire for a few minutes certainly made it easier. I’ve noticed improved traction with my L3540 (loader rears and 6’ inverted blower on back) on our long hilly blacktopped driveway for sure. Where I used to need to...
