    Reenforcment bracket?

    Hi, I have an L2800 with about 200 hours on it, mostly brushhogging with a 5' Landpride mower. Somewhere I read that the tractor needs some kind of reenforcement bracket or the 3-point hitch will be strained to the point of breaking something. Now I'm worried: Anything to this? Bill

    Leaking hydraulic fluid

    Hi, Haven't been on the forum for awhile, but now I have what I hope is a minor problem. I have a two-year-old (the warranty is up TODAY) L2800 HST that has started to leak fluid around the inspection window. The dealer seems a little confused. Here are my questions: 1. Is the tractor...

    pto chipper?

    Hi there Kubota fans, Every now and then I get the urge to buy a pto wood chipper so I can clean up the fairly considerable piles of brush and branches that accumulate on my property. I could also use the mulch. My tractor is an L2800. Anybody got favorites or recommendations? Thanks, Bill

    3-Point Hitch  Fundamental 3-point hitch question

    Hi Tractor guys, Now that it's spring and we're all hooking up various implements, there've been quite a few posts about how to hook up a 3-point, the value of quick hitch systems, etc. I've hooked up mowers (sickle bar and rotary), blades, etc. on my hitches over the years and now do use...

    Pat's Easy Change and driveline length

    Hello, I have an L2800 and a Landpride 1860 rotary mower that I used all last year. Now this year, I've installed Pat's Easy Change System, which moves the 3-point hitch points back 4 inches or so (I had to buy a new top hitch because the original was too short by an inch or so). This...

    L2800 still in production?

    Hello, Is the L 2800 still in production? One tractor website lists it as a "prior model," along with other models that have been discontinued. The Kubota site still shows it. What gives? Bill

    Oil & Fuel  diesel consumption

    Hi, Anybody have an idea of what kind of "mileage" the L2800 gets? I mean, of course, about how long you run per gallon at the normal rpms (about 2300?) required to run the pto at 540? Bill

    l2800 3 pt and hydraulic lift

    Hi there, Well, I took delivery of my brand new L2800 on Friday and have some questions for someone (and that would be anyone) more knowledgeable than I am. First, the operator's manual says to warm up the tractor for 10 minutes before using the hydraulic lift. Do I need to do this to...

    L2800

    Last year I moved to a place where the owner had been mowing about 8 acres of pasture, with a 5' brush hog and an ancient Ford 8N. I bought this rig for cheap and somehow managed to mow with it last summer, but now it's pretty much kaput. So now I'm about to pull the trigger on an L2800 HST...
