I've had the MF 1010 for about 6 years now and I have done a lot of work with it. Like the small size for tight spaces. However because of the small foot print care must be taken when working on a hill. Not a lot of maintenance, but the hydraulic cylinders on the loader have needed work. I've rebuild the lift cylinders and they work great. I did buy the re-build kits for the cylinders, but I measured the old ones and the grooves for the o-ring so I can now buy the parts from an o-ring supplier a lot cheaper. I bought the Kubota at an auction at the end of last year. Hard starting initially, but now runs great. The hydraulics are very strong and the spring loaded seat is a real plus. The main reason for the purchase was the backhoe. Never used one before. but not too hard. I,ve done several projects with it and it works great. Like the MF, I like the ability to work in tight places. Look forward to working with everyone on the forum. Hope I can be of help.
