kubota m6040

Can you change 16.9-24 r4’s to 16.9-28 r14 on Kubota M6040

Still working through my lost prime issue. Does anyone know the I.D. size of these lines? They all appear to be the same but I don't want to open up the fuel system again to check until I have all the replacement lines on hand. Thanks

Hello everyone! I recently purchased a Kubota M6040 with 1500 hours on it. It has one rear remote that I use for my hay equipment. Everything I use it on it seems to be running very slow and with low pressure. It takes forever to raise and lower the tailgate on my baler. raise and lower my mower...

Looks like both are built on same chassis and have same engine. The 6040 has about 64hp and m7040 about 71hp. Anyone know the difference is that adds the extra few hp? Setting on injection pump or slightly larger injectors?

Hood on M6040 open platform tractor pushed off hinges in farm accident, Need to find out how the hood open catches realign so that hood properly re-seats against the rear of the engine compartment, nothing seems bent.

Looking at a VERY gently used 2013 M6040. Looks new, <80 hours, very close to me. Planning on going to look at it in more detail tomorrow, and spend some time with it. I have been debating the right tractor for me for the 80 acres we purchased, and this seems big enough to do 90%+ of anything...

I was looking for a skid plate solution for my M6040 for a while and I would like to thank Rustyiron for his photos and ideas. In return, I am posting the results of my handiwork. My goal was to provide bottom side protection for the tractor as well as add weight to the back as the loader can...

Hey all, The temperature gauge on my M6040 HDC-1 is not working all of a sudden. Never moves off of cold. Any idea where the sending unit is on the engine or are there any fuses or anything that would cause this to happen? Thanks!

I have a Kubota M6040 with loader and cab. I bought it this spring (165 hrs on it). The thing worked well up until this weekend. I jumped in, started it up, let it warm up and then headed out of the shop. I slowly backed out of the shop and started to go around a corner and realized that there...

Been thinking about upgrading mg MX5100 and just turn out that i found a used 6040 hydro at the the dealer. R4, enclosed, loader, Under 80hrs. Right now asking price is $39,000. And tips or advice or additional info you guys can help me out with?

I have a fairly new (65 hours) Kubota M6040 with a LA1153 loader that I bought new. While moving some snow yesterday, one of the 2 main pins that holds the loader assembly in place, fell out. I was pushing snow into a bank and the failure caused the loader to swing to the left thereby bending...

Hi all, I'm looking at buying a M6040 or MX5100 and need some width info. The product brochures for both machines state the minimum width, but I need to know the max width to determine if either will fit on my trailer. Does anyone have this info? I would be most grateful for whatever you can...

I purchased this subplate Surplus Center - 3 STATION DO3 SERIES OC SUBPLATE and these valves Surplus Center - 12 VDC 10 GPM OC DA SOLENOID VALVE Has anyone installed this set up on a Kubota M Series successfully? I have supply coming from PB on loader valve, then feeding the 3pt from the...

Since this is my first time upgrading hydraulics, I need some confirmation for the correct plumbing. The lowest connection on the loader valve is the power beyond (I think) which goes back to the top of the rear end which is the 3 pt hitch (I think). One line goes to the side of the tranny to...

2013 demo, 50 hrs on it, cab, fel,ag tires what is a good price thanks

just bought a new Vermeer 6040. does anyone else have on of these disc mowers and what do you think of it? any problems?

Hey all, I've been lurking for a while trying to learn something. I thank all of you for your previous posts as they have helped me make a decision - sort of. I am pretty well sold on the Kubota M series tractor. I have a great local dealer and every time I look at the Ms wanting to not...

Hi All, I was set to purchase an M7040 HDC to raise/harvest hay on 20 acres and to maintain pastures on another 55 acres. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get a new M7040 HDC unit at this point. The jump to the M8560 HDC is just too much in terms of tractor and price to justify for my small...

The only difference I see in these two tractors is the engine and about $1500. The 5140 has the V2403 (149 CI) and the 6040 has the V3307 (203 CI). At the dealer's lot, the V2403 engine seems to rattle with the familiar "diesel ping" and the V3307 does not. Also, I noticed that at 35...

I Have a 2011 M6040 DTC Cab Tractor 4X4 w/ l1156 loader and 3 remotes What would it be worth reselling it has 175hrs total on it

I decided to pull the trigger on a 2008 M6040 with hydraulic shuttle shift. I'm very excited about it. :D:D:D Seems like a really nice tractor for the money. Thanks to everyone on this forum who provided insightful advice. Next is to buy a gooseneck trailer to get her home. How much does...

If you have a choice between a used M5040 or an M6040 which would you choose? The smaller horse power is generally a little less expensive but is the extra horse power worth having in this machine? Does 5040 have enough power to work sufficiently?

Does anyone have a schematic for the hydraulic system on a Kubota M6040? We're trying to hook up a snow plow in place of the front-end loader (FEL), but would like to still use the existing joystick, and the 4-hose quick disconnect (QD) systems. But as is often the case, it tain't as simple as...

I cannot decide which to buy. I currently own a bx2360 hst, a New Holland tl80 mech shuttle, and an older MF 255. I want a good midsize tractor to brush hog with, run a box blade, do fel work, and mow, and rake hay, and carry 5x5 round bails. I spec'd a M6040 with hydro shuttle, 4wd, fel...

I have a Kubota M6040 ROPS, 4wd, cat 1/2 3-point, 5500 lbs no FEL, 7700 lbs with FEL and 56hp at PTO. What size and brand of skidding winch should I consider buying and what features are important? While my tractor could probably handle quite a big winch I do not want to spend lots of $$$ on a...

Wet sleeve or parent bore ?

Well, I've passed my first 50-hours with my new Kubota M6040--moved and stacked many logs, put in a driveway, and moved about 200-tons of dirt in landscaping. All with no weight on the back end. But it's time for that to change. Now I need to bite the bullet and get a post-hole digger. I've...

any comments on 4520 versues a m6040

Picked up a m6040 toady. Good: Only 450 hrs, operates perfectly, no leaks, AC!, hydraulic shuttle, 4n1 bucket, two rear remotes. Also got a 7' bush hog out of it. I kind of like the custom hood guard. :) Bad: The radio is broke and it has some front end dings and even a little rust. (it...

Funny video I just ran across on you tube! Kubota M6040 Cab Lowrider - YouTube

Well I'm glad to say I'm a new owner of a M 6040 kubota its sure night and day compared to the MX 5100

Hi there just looking for some advice here I'm looking at buying a new tractor next week but I have 2 options buy a Kubota M6040 4x4 new or JD 5525 with 600 hrs 4x4 used.What is best on fuel and lasting longer without problems?

Anyone load their small M series on a equipment trailer? You know, the ones with fenders on the outside? 80" between fenders. I know the specs say 73.2", but on most tractors the tires bow out a few inches.

I am looking at getting a used m6040 but I am seeing some irregularity in the specs. In the old chart(http://www.kubota.com/product/M5040/pdf/m5040comps.pdf, the weight is about 800 lbs lighter than the current model m6040. When was the switch?

Been shopping for a m6040 (or 5040 or 7040 for the right price) for a while, but recently read the specs on the grand L series. That little L5740 looks impressive. The way I read it the loader is capable of lifting 2500 lbs (roughly same as the m6040), the three point hitch capacity is only...

I recently bought a Kubota M5040 (HD/4WD/ROPS), and had gone back and forth for months (years?) before making my choice. A lot of the reason I bought this particular Kubota was the impressive lift capacity in the Loader. I really wanted to be able to unload a pallet full of material from the bed...

The 3 pt hitch on my M6040 drops when the engine is turned off. In addition when I lift an implement the implement bobs up and down. Also, I have no oil showing on the dip stick. Could it be just low oil. Where did the oil go? Ed

I am contemplating trading towards a Kubota TLB, but I have no idea what the value of my tractor is. It's in great shape, 2006, 200 or so hours, tires are like new as is the rest of the tractor. Ag tires by the way, the bucket has the auto level feature, stereo, tool box, This is the...

Looking for a tractor in the 20-22k range(used). It needs to weigh in very near 7k (4wd, loader, and loaded tires, I guesstimated a 4500-5000 lb tractor?) to fit on my 12k trailer with a 2500lb drill) Needs to pull a 9 shank tiller (some people call them chisel plows, but it isnt as heavy or...

Ran across a guy who is selling his tractor and moving to Alaska. Does this seem like a good deal? He is asking 21k for the tractor(4wd, hydraulic clutch, no loader, with 340 hrs). It is a 2008. He is also throwing in a heavy duty Land Pride six foot bush hog for this price. Unit looks brand...

I have a new to me Kubota M6040. it was hard to start a few times earlier this winter in my unheated barn, but it was never to far below freezing, a dose of power supply and 911 in the filters fixed that. but yesterday(40+ degrees out) I was using it to move snow around driveway and every 10...

on the kubota m6040 what is the starting procedure (no manual to be found) on the ignition switch there is is an off position, then a lightning stroke, then the next postion the dash lights come on and then the next is the start. Where is the glow plug indicator located and what position turns...

Torn between a bigger tractor with more strength and bigger engine M6040 vs the convenience of the hst on the 5740. I have 14 acres, organic garden produce and bees and always moving trees for firewood. I'm always moving bee equipment and everything else. I have rented smaller units (40hp)...

I really appreciate the knowledge and experience of the folks that post here, so I am asking for some help in configuring an M series. I have 42 acres used for breeding a few horses and keeping bees in central Kentucky. Hard to believe, but for several years I have mowed this property with a...

I am looking at buying a Kubota M6040DT 4wd with FEL, no cab. One of the dealers I called today has a "brand new" 2008 model that he is trying to get rid of. The origional quote he gave me was $29,500.00. I think that is a little high for a 2 year old tractor, even though it has 0 hours. Can...

Looking to purchase a new tractor and can't decide between a Kubota M6040 or a New Holland T4020. Gonna go with 4wd and manual shuttle shift with either brand. What do ya'll think? Blue or orange? My current tractor is a New Holland 3930, but that's when it was Ford and not Fiat. Anyone...

I am picking up a new M6040, loaded R1's, FEL, next week under the 0% for 60mo deal. I tried to find an M7040 with the old pricing and 0% for 60mo deal but could not locate one.

What should the idle rpm speed be for the M6040? I have pulled, snaged, and bent every cable under the tractor by pushing brush with a grapple and the speed seems high. It idles at 1100 rpms at this time.

I am going to be selling my Kubota M6040 hyd shuttle, 1153 FL, rear wheel weights, extra utility light on the back, Kubota fiberglass top with little over 200 hours on the machine. It has spent most of it's life in the garage when not in use. It is in like new condition. I have other implements...

What should I expect would be fair for a New 08 M6040 4wd, regular shuttle, open station, Ag tires, and canopy?

I have a M6040 with the industrial tires and recently purchased the lienbach 7300 auger for some post holes I need to dig. The problem is the tractor won't raise the auger high enough. I have tried every adjustment there is and it still won't work. Even contacted Lienbach and they sent the...

Well I went ahead and got the 6040HD 4wd with FEL. I kept trying to get a better price, but in the end the best I could do was 27,000.00. I held out as long as I could. This will be my first Kubota.

I want to get my tractor on order this afternoon and I am still trying to decide if I need a M5040 or a M6040. I am looking at the 4WD. I will use it to farm 60 acres, I want to put out a little hay maybe some corn and grain and do a lot of brush hogging. Dose a M5040 have the power to run a...

I'm getting real close to buying my first tractor and I wanted to ask if there is anything I need that a first time tractor owner might not think of. I'm looking at a 4WD M6040 for maintaining a couple miles of roads/paths, about 20 acres of deer plots, helping to build my vacation home and...

I bought a M 6040 HD and when I shift to reverse in any high range gear the tractor doesn't move for many seconds, especially if it is on an incline. Also when hitching my 3 bottom plows or the disk, the 3 point hitch doesn't lift high enough and the equipment often drags the ground even when...

:eek: I just bought a new M6040 and it is making an intermittent noise apparent at idle. Sort of a clunking sounding, with all types of variations; similar to the sound a water pump with a bad bearing makes or a bearing, ball or roller, with just one bad bearing grabbing or rubbing? I had it...

Hi All, I've been reading various threads on this forum for months and appreciate all the information so far. In the next month I will probably be moving forward on an M6040 purchase and I have a couple of key questions I need to decide on before then. Your help would be appreciated. As a...

I just bought a M6040 Kubota 62Hp. The thing is sweet however it makes a occasional growling sound under the hood. Kubota says it the oil cooler bypass valve. It rumbles when it hot & cold. It doesn't affect the RPM, any input out there, please

Hi all. I live in Vermont and will be visiting the local Kubota dealer in a week or so. I was wondering if I could get rough outline of prices for the following tractors, which will include no cab, 4wd, a bucket, shuttle-shift and two remote connectors on the back. M5700 M6800 M6040 Are these...

Anyone have any comments on this combination? I have been looking at BushHog and Woods and neither company has a sub-frame available for the M series with a cab. I spoke with a rep from Bush-hog and evidently the 3 point backhoes from them are breaking the top-link mounting and have started on...

I have about 22 hours on this tractor, 12 hours with a flail mower and the rest pulling a spring tooth and general FEL work. I noticed at startups that there was quite a bit of black smoke coming out of the exhaust. I thought nothing of it at first untill I seen all the black smoke on my FEL...

I keep jumping around with different tractors and now believe I will end up with a M6040, because I have some big mowing jobs ahead of me. I want to know if the M6040 will have enough power to pull a 15ft flexwing mower. This would be rented 4-6 times a summer and will use a 7ft Bush Hog to do...

I have just purchased a m6040 w/fel 1153, fluid in my tires, 300 lbs of weight on each rear tire, and 72" box scraper with scarifiers. It will be delivered today. I was wondering what size disc would be just right for this size of tractor. I have 20 acres of mostly sandy loam. Also should I look...

I made my down payment today and should take delivery of it this weekend or the first part of the week. I went with the 1153 FEL, r4 tires, 600 lb. wheel weights, tires filled with water,and Gearmore 72" scraper with scarifiers. With tax the price ended up at $30,455. 2% farm sales tax in my...

Howdy - Unless we were to be convinced otherwise, we plan to purchase an m6040 w/ LA1153 FEL for our 25 acre horse farm operation. However, in FL, turf tires are a must so that the pastures and fields are not torn up during mowing (sandy soil yields easily to industrial or farm treads). Anyone...

Hello there I am another newbie, I am really close to buying one of these tractors and was wondering if I could have some help on west coast pricing (Ca). I was quoted $28k on a M6040 with 1153 loader, and $26k for the M5040. The sales person mentioned something about 600lb. weights on the back...

Drove by dealer yesterday and there was an M6040 Cab on the lot. Did not have time to talk price but did get in an look it over. The view and lay-out looks great. I compared it to an M6800 Cab parked behind it. The AC not in the roof makes alot of difference in the view. I was worried about...
