I've had a ZD 326 for several months now. I've been patiently waiting for my technique to improve but so far no luck. I really like the 326 speed, ride and cut. My problem is that it consistently is tearing up my lawn. I do not live in the woods where grass is aways wet, I live on top of a...

This year, i've noticed that when I push the FEL lever forward there is a "dead" spot. When I first start pushing the lever forward, the bucket drops slowly. I push a bit harder and the bucket stops! Push a bit harder and it starts to drop again. I've gotten used to it but figured that I...

After being too busy to mow over the last two weeks, I had one heck of a mess on my hands this weekend. My wife is insisting that we purchase a bagger for our B7610 so I stopped at the local dealer. He didn't have one in stock, but told me about a Kubota GCK60-24B Grass Catcher. He has never...

My relatively new (30 hours) 7610 has two nagging issues that my dealer is saying are normal but I want to hear from other 76510/7610 owners first before I decide whether or not to stop complaining. First, i'm sure that everyone can agree that the right/left fender round the rear tires is made...

I just read a post by RobertM in the JD forum in which he implied that his new 7510 with bar tires is easier on the lawn than his old 7500 with turfs. I think I am interpreting his post correctly. Maybe I missed it, but I do not remember reading anything about this. I just got a 7610 with...

My new 7610 was delivered late last Wednesday. With rain and baseball games, I was not able to start playing with it till this weekend. With my 3.5 acres in danger of getting out of control and needing to be raked, I decided my first job would be to mow. Most of my comments are comparisons of...

I have seen many posts that recommend having a dealer fill tires with a fluid. I am going to be getting a Kubota 7610 this Wednesday and am wondering if it is worth asking the dealer to do this. I am already buying 300 pounds of weight for the 3-pt hitch. What is a typical price? I'm...

Because I preferred the ergonomics of the JD 2210 and 4110 to the BX, up to today I was leaning toward purchasing one of the two JD's. For some reason, the thought of looking into Kubota's larger tractors did not cross my mind. Fortunately, I spent some time at my local Kubota dealer today and...

I am planning to upgrade from a JD 445 (w/ 60" deck and the MC 519 cart). I own 3.5 acres. About 2 acres is grass with multiple plantings and trees (mostly evergreens that are approx 4' diameter). The last 1.5 acres is a rough field that is only mowed every 2-3 weeks. All in all, we have...
