Good question. Over the years I've seen engines that would turnover while cranking but not have any spark on a gas engine.

That's a real nice mulcher head. About $25k? Are you able to use your thumb while the mulcher head is running?

I knew it had to be something simple, the wire coming from the coil to the distributer cap had failed in the elbow on the dist. cap end. The copper crimp fell out in several pieces. Then I pushed the wire back into the connector and the tractor fired up immediately. Turned off engine and ordered...

Yes, it will not turn over. Like if you try to start it in gear but will not until it is in neutral. Ok I will try a jumper wire tomorrow. Thanks

While bush-hogging all of a sudden the engine shut down. Plenty of gas, good voltage, all dash lights work, but when trying to crank engine over, nothing. Not a click. Let it sit overnight, then it started right up and ran great for the next 10 hours. Now it will not start again after sitting...

Got several hundred with a .22LR with one shot each in the past 50 years. Also quite a few with a pellet gun / air rifle up close. Save your big ammo for other things.

Looks like a typical rainy, slightly foggy, winter day in that part of the the US. Climate change is a religion that is all about controlling people. Don't fall for it.

On my 2600 it just pulls straight out.

If it takes all of that then it sounds more expensive than its worth for my usage. I know cotontop3 has one on his 057-4 maybe he is on this forum and can chime in.

Yea, mine was delivered without it enabled, although I would like to know what stuff weighs sometimes. But I did not really need it for the work I do with it. I'm curious to know what Kubota would charge to enable it though. Probably would have to take it to the dealership to have it plugged...

If your keypad has the little "hook" like mine does (057-5) then you have a built-in scale option for your bucket,

At what hour interval did it regen while you were driving it? Did you buy it new? Have you heard about "Lemon Law"?

Thanks! I will give them a call.

George did your tint?

I never said it would "replace a skid". I said it can do "about" the same thing as a CTL. Meaning an excavator can perform "some" of the same things. Working as a lineman is rough on your body, and riding in a skid steer or CTL for several hours a day will feel like you have been riding in a...

Got to have a Hyd. Thumb on the excavator for best results. My ctl went 5mph wide open, exc goes 3mph. Not a big difference since the exc can do a lot of work without moving the tracks back and forth constantly.

Have you considered an excavator? I owned a CTL with mulcher for several years. It was nice but you will bounce A lot. Now have a KX 057-5 with thumb and it is very capable of doing about everything a ctl can do. Good thing is it's much easier on your body, less noise, easier access for...

You have the ideal set up for some serious work! I'm sure you have a chainsaw hiding under a tree back there somewhere. haha

Oak tree stump in the easy area. Most of what I'm working in is overgrown with grapevines 10ft high.

Oh, that's cool, mine is a cab and angle blade too! Yea, the chainsaw is mandatory as a standby tool. I'm reclaiming my acreage from hurricane damage.

How frequent are your re-gens?

It is normal wear for new rubber tracks. Do you have the open cab or enclosed with ac/heat? I'm also a new 057-5 owner, doing my 50hr service this weekend.

That's good to know if it happens again! Sounds a lot easier than installing a complete new cable assembly. So far I'm at 240 hrs and it's getting the work done.

My 2018 L2501 DT has been running great, then no tach or hr meter at only 140 hrs. First, checked fuses, all good. No sticks that may have ripped wires. Looks like the cable that connects to motor is near the oil filter? I can replace it myself, just need some input from y'all.

I have owned this saw for about 9 months. We were hit Very hard by Hurricane Michael. It amazed me how much it was capable of compared to a gas saw, and I've been running some nice Stihls over the years. Keep at least 2 batteries and you will never run out of power. I was ready for a break...

This is really strange that 2 in a row quick couplings failed with only a few changing out of attachments. Went from bucket to grapples and back three times and always made sure everything is clean before hookup. Been running equipment for 40 years and never had the same o-ring on the same...

FYI they fit in a 2012 Honda pilot with a few inches to spare. My wife gave permission since my truck was down for maintenance. haha:D

Just bought it yesterday and used the first full tank of gas today. I am really happy with it so far while working around the yard. Starts extremely easy and is very quiet. I will use it mostly to clear small oaks and other trees that have taken over my planted pine acreage. What falls to the...

My 12' Dodge 5500 left me stranded with the DEF system entering limp mode while pulling a 20k pound load. Only idled in normal traffic. Had to leave it in the shop for over a week for repairs. I'm done with the new diesels. The DEF is a huge problem for all heavy duty trucks from what the local...

Wanted to hear the good or bad about them. I see most are in the cooler parts of the U.S. My bobcat runs around 190-205 degrees all day long at full throttle while mulching in summer with 99 degree ambient temps here in FL. I May want to upgrade early next year although the bobcat is holding up...

Ran fine while mowing then placed in park, stood up and it shut off. Normally I let it idle for a couple of mins. in the shade after running at full throttle. Checked all fuses and battery has 12.75v. Before loading it on the trailer and hauling it back to the dealership I was hoping to figure...

When I stopped to open my gate for no reason at all the left front brake was smoking from the pads dragging on the disc. Plenty of pad on all wheels with 74k miles. I know it seems the pads would need replacing by now but the are in good shape. Wheel spins ok with slight drag when jacked up...

When rotating or replacing teeth do you buy all new bolts and washers or re-use them?
