    Congrats. I hope it serves you well for many years.

    LS or Kubota

    I personally think too much is made of the two pedal vs treadle pedal difference. You will get use to whichever you have. That isn't a reason to not buy one or the other in my view based on usage of both. Some hate the treadle, but it never bothered me as I simply leave my heel on the floor...

    LS or Kubota

    I feel like I should clarify. By outside the loader arms I mean physically outside and not internal to the loader arm, not technically on the outer side of the loader arm. Kioti is one example and I believe LS is another meaning just on the outside, even if it is the internal side of the...

    LS or Kubota

    I must have confused the LS with the TYM. Regardless, I looked at them all with an open mind and for me the Kubota won out regardless of price. I will state it again, go look at all of them and buy what you like best. It's make zero difference to me what anyone buys for themselves.

    LS or Kubota

    I didn't slander anyone. Yes, maybe the one I looked at wasn't exactly like the one he may be looking at, but the general points that many have made remain the same. Go sit on them, drive them, use the functions, and decide for yourself what is most important. We are simply pointing out...

    LS or Kubota

    I looked at an MT573 I believe. Think it is one of their premium models. I don't think I am being disingenuous at all. These are simply my opinions based on my personal experience and considerations. We all have opinions. I don't care what he buys or spends his money on, just giving my...

    Loader Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    It's not an issue of not being able to weld, it simply an issue of I don't like grinding on new things and then painting over them when I don't see any reason to. I am a bit picky about my equipment.

    LS or Kubota

    If you are buying by a spec sheet, you will be disappointed sooner or later. Expectations have a big impact on your satisfaction as well. I bought another Kubota because I was super familiar with the "responsiveness" of things like the loader control from my previous Kubota. When comparing...

    Loader Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    I have welders and can do it, but I don't really want to do it right now being brand new and also not lifting too many really heavy loads. I can use forks or other things like my grapple that are heavier built to lift things if I need to.

    Loader Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    I bought some of his bolt on hooks that have the smaller base and will put them inline with the loader arms. Have been out of the country for a week so they should be there when I get back and can put them on.

    Kubota M4D-071HDC12-D

    It has the option for a creeper gear. Mine brand new one has it. And it's cheaper than the creeper gear for the M4D by a few hundred dollars. This is exactly what I ordered. > M7060HDC12 - 4WD TRACTOR W/12 SPEED HYDRAULIC SHUTTLE & CAB > > FRONT LSW320/70R24 GDYR R14T > REAR LSW420/75R34...

    M4D-071 Maximum Operating Weight

    They probably have something on the M7060. The M4 is the M7060 besides some updated components. It should almost be a 1 to 1 comparison. The M5 is a the next size up in weight and everything else.

    Loader Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    I’m fine with the bucket. I am not going to be beating the crap out of it using it as a bulldozer. They won’t be going on a lip anywhere.

    Loader Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    Yeah, I looked at his. His seem to be a bit narrower and go on top. I will probably just modify the ones I have to fit there. Was just curious what anyone else had done.

    Loader  Where to put Hooks on M7060 bucket?

    I had bolt on hooks on my MX5800 and was planning to do the same on my new M7060. The buckets are of a different design and I am having a hard time figuring out where best to place them. There is a "boxed" in portion, but it seems fairly thin by my standards to bolt the hooks. I am just using...

    M4D-071 Maximum Operating Weight

    I would also be looking for a tow behind, not 3pt. Same principle for me with bush hogs. I prefer a pull behind 90% of the time. Much less wear and tear due to stresses on the tractor connections in my opinion.
  19. H

    Kubota M4D-071HDC12-D

    Why not go with the M7060. Essentially same tractor with different transmission and proven reliability. There are very few differences unless you have to have a buddy seat or a couple of other small items. It actually has slightly more PTO HP. Took 5 months though for my new one to get here...

    R14 ag tires

    I suspect some of it comes down to the size of the tires. My M7060 with R14's just came in. I do quite a bit of driving over areas I consider my yard (I mow about 4 acres) so I didn't want R1's tearing it up. The R4's only came in a size with 24" centers so they were a lot smaller in size. I...

    Comparison Struggling between M7060 and M4(D)

    Well, it took 4 months, 3 weeks for my tractor to make it to the dealer. It was just unloaded and is now in the process of getting all of the extra's that the dealer has to install on. Should have it to me next week. A little longer than I was hoping, but not as bad as it could have been.

    Warning About Dealers And Their Pricing

    I guess to each his own, but I had to borrow my buddies NX5010 while I am waiting on my new M7060 and while a nice enough tractor, you couldn't get me to buy one. I had an MX5800 previously and for me the Kubota was heads above the Kioti in the important aspects for me. I feel like I should...

    DPF vs. NO DPF (75hp edition)

    I would equate the entire DPF/Tier4 discussion on the internet to most things on the internet. The vast majority of response posts you are going to see about it are from people who had some type of issue or even more likely don't even have a tier 4 tractor, but have a strong opinion on it to...

    Looking for used 50-70hp, pre-emissions tractor. JD?

    My opinion, is it tells me they don't believe it is costing them enough sales to matter. Or they simply believe in their design and specs for what they want to offer. I also think the lost sales aren't because of a loader. It's because some people are strictly buying on price and will find a...

    Looking for used 50-70hp, pre-emissions tractor. JD?

    Kubota doesn't use DEF on either the M7060 or M4 which are both over 70HP. Not sure about Deere.

    Looking for used 50-70hp, pre-emissions tractor. JD?

    It's only above a certain HP where DEF is needed. I believe it may be 74HP or less don't need DEF.

    Looking for used 50-70hp, pre-emissions tractor. JD?

    It has emissions, it just doesn't use a dpf that has to regen like a lot of the others. It has a DOC, but not DPF. I don't get that into the details on it, but DOC is also used with a DPF if I have it right.
  29. H

    Looking for used 50-70hp, pre-emissions tractor. JD?

    I tend to agree, but the more I read these forums and listen to people, I think Kubota may be one of the few who put a loader on that is rightly sized for the tractor and weight. The problem I see is that everyone just looks at specs and goes, ooh, that lifts more so it is better. The problem...

    If you are letting it get to the tranny, you are doing something wrong to start. Not trying to be rude, but you should have better feel than that.

    DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

    This may be for a parked regen in the case you have bypassed the previous regen process in the past. For a normal regen, none of this is needed like stated many times. There are thousands of us having zero issues with any of this. We have tried to explain what works. Try it or don't, but...

    DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

    You can idle them, you just shouldn't be doing it for extended periods of time. Yes, they will regen more often if you idle for longer periods of time, but it's a simple process. I think some should define idle as well. I consider idle to be sitting there at lowest throttle. I don't know...

    DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

    Just crank the rpms up until the up arrow goes away and keep working. Don't push anything and you will be fine. If you are in some really combustable areas, then maybe drive out of them, but I have never pushed a button and never had an issue on my MX5800 when it said it needed to regen. I...

    No, not yet. Being that I wanted quite a few options, it had to be ordered. The dealer I use has 3 location all within 30 minutes of me and they had 12 on order. I got them to change one on order to my specs by giving a down payment. As it was the second longest on order, they are hoping it...

    I could have got a self levelling loader as well. I just don't like them. My point was simply that we keep hearing how you can't get similar features for the same price. I think you can. Don't get me wrong, the 4707 is a nice tractor and I think worth the money. Whether the features are...

    That's the problem. Specs don't tell the whole story. I looked at just about everything. I was close to buying a Kioti 7320 as it has all of the "specs", but there were just too many little things I didn't like. What sealed the deal to not buy it was the lack of loader control and speed. It...

    4707 comparison chart

    I will admit it weighs more, but like I said that isn't an advantage for me personally. I do a lot of work on my lawn areas and don't do much ground engaging work, so R1 just tear stuff up. The extra weight and the R1 would be even worse. My M7060 Cab on order has 18 speeds (12 + creeper...

    4707 comparison chart

    This chart is a bit misleading. They show the most basic M7060 specs (and I suspect others) to make it look like there is a huge difference. I realize weight is a big difference which is important to some although in my case it was a deterrent. Not saying the Massey doesn't have a couple of...

    Kubota 4701/4060LE/3560LE?

    So most would normally say more weight is better. Just basing this off of what you have outlined, I would be looking for the most HP in maybe a little bit lighter tractor. I would probably be leaning towards the L4701 with weighted tires. In fact, depending on how the hills are, a geared...

    TYM T474 vs John Deere 4044M

    On my MX5800, the fuel fill was in the middle of the hood. It didn't take me long to buy a 50 gallon drum, 12v Pump, and battery. I put it all on a pallet so I could place it in my truck to go fill it up when needed. It cost me around $450 all in, but I feel like I made that back so fast in...

    A manufacturer can raise the MSRP for a multitude of reasons. One of those could be 0%, but I don't believe that is the major contributing factor to an increase in MSRP. It's impossible to say exactly what the impact is (without seeing their internal docs) and I also won't disagree that it...

    How important is engine displacement on same class of tractor?

    Not sure about the New Holland, but the Kubota is right at 200lbs lighter than the Kioti based on specs. I will have the tires all filled with Rimguard so weight shouldn't be an issue after adding the loaders. I would say both will be in that 8,000lb range.
