Dad has Kubota with cab. A/C runs for a while then stops working. Anyone know the pressure gauges should read when connected? Thanks

Just add refrigerant per instructions on can.

I guessed your tractor AC uses 134A refrigerant. As you can determine from chart below ambient temperature affects correct charge pressures. Be sure radiator, condenser & cab filter are free of foreign material that will block good air flow. I also recommend installing manual heater hose coolant cut-off valve if one isn't already installed.

Just gas it and go. If it still doesn't work,giver a little more.
Here's how TBN fixes tractor ac. Wag wag here,wag wag there,here a wag there a wag.

Over filling AC system with 134A is more detrimental(lowers cold air output) more than on older type systems using R12

As well as destroy the system from over pressure. The pertinent shop manual will state the correct charge applicable to the system and... your local dealer will know, try asking them.
Winging it can and will destroy the system.

I've also heard a bad metering device will cause poor cooling.

Monitoring operating pressures should determine if expansion valve is faulty
