Tractor
Kubota L3400 FEL
I took delivery on the new 2920 yesterday. I know I said I would not need it until planting on our specialty crop farm in the spring, but I could not resist trying my hand at snow removal with it. I used my brothers 6 foot rear blade. I normally use my L3400 with FEL and 7 foot rear blade. The new machine was quite a work horse to my surprise. I logged almost 1.4 hours on the new equipment, it took a bit of time to get use to Hydro compared to my gear drive 3400. All in all I liked it.

Nice looking tractor. I use a rear blade and FEL to clear the snow and it works fairly well. Don't forget to put a coat of wax on the new machine. Looks great and good luck with it!

Nice ! Congratulations on the new tractor. Looks like it did a nice job clearing the drive with the rear blade. :)

Don't admit to waxing the wheels or amor-all'ing the tires or you'll never here the end of it from these gentlemen.

The tractor got a nice wax job at the dealers just before I got it home. It sat for several weeks inside the store waiting for the R1 tires. My brother-in-law will wax it from now on. I was cleaning his drive when the pictures were taken. He does have a fault. He amourals the seat as well as the tires. Have you ever tried to sit on a very, very slick seat. I slid off the first time he waxed the 3400. He does a great job otherwise.
