I assume you mean "hydrophyllic" (as opposed to "hydrophobic")?

You must spend all day in your tractor. (not a bad thing). My B2710 sips fuel, but I only use it to plow/maintain the driveway and move firewood. Not a flat/level place anywhere on my property.

Well; I guess I'm a real NOOB here. I fill my Kubota about 2-3 times a year from a 5 gal plastic can and the worst of it is the stupid "safety" nozzle they put on those now, Takes forever to fill. I had never heard of stuff growing in diesel, although water/condensation does make sense. Maybe...

Your LX3310 looks just like my (older) B2710 made in early 90s. Bought used from dealer about 10 yrs ago. Not 100% problem free, but no buyers remorse. 27-29 HP. HST. Loaded tires. Clears my driveway with a land-pride (used) blade. Just bought a grapple to handle firewood. Has saved me...

I would think that some locktight and/or lockwashers would work better than letting it rust, especially if it ever needed repair.

I don't own a trailer, but this seems like a good "down and dirty" trick to check trailer balance.

OMG! Sometimes the simplest solutions confound me... Sure enough; one of the hose connections had come loose. Plugged it back in tight, and all works great. SO relieved! THANK YOU ALL for the great suggestions and help!! You've averted me from going into a high-speed wobble.... Of course...

Still checking....

No. It looked like it might have been, but I was able to move it back and forth just a bit.

I have a 1990'S Kubota B2710 that has served me well since I've owned it (10 yrs±) Last December my Everything Attachments grapple finally arrived. I didn't need it until Spring, so it's only been attached a few months. Maybe 5-10 hours on it, and suddenly it won't close but half way. Seems to...

Yeah; Welcome to tractoring! You don't give your location, but when it comes to plowing; I just put on a good coat and snowmobile gloves, and a balaclava (to keep the snow from going down the back of my neck) and go for it!

I spent a good chunk of my retirement savings on my used Kubota B2710, but there has been NO buyers remorse. I use it to plow my driveway in Winter, and drag it in Summer. I just bought a grapple to handle and cut my firewood, so I no longer have to climb onto the wood pile with a chain to the...

Eugene; In my (limited) experience; the dealer can make a big difference. In my area (NH) Kubotas and New Holland seem to be the most popular. There's only one Massey dealer around, and they have a poor reputation. I don't know where I'd go to find another brand. Parts and service should be a...

I did the same thing years ago, when I was first looking for a tractor. They said the tractor was in Iowa, so thought it odd that it was advertised on NH CL. I replied with "Great! I'm a truck driver and I'll happen to be out that way next week. Give your address, and I'll pick it up." The ad...

I'm a cheapskate, so I took an empty peanut butter jar, and bungee'd it to the ROPS. Works great, and FREE! If you've got a bigger cup, then just buy a bigger jar of PB.
