Grading New to me Kubota M59

[Gasifier]

Well I decided to get a Kubota M59. Traded in my last tractor. Nough said. I thought I had better start talking with some other M59 owners on TBN and see what I can learn. It’s also time to read the manual. LOL

As part of the purchase deal I had them install auxiliary hydraulics up front and order a three point hitch kit because it did not have one. A one and two foot backhoe bucket are also part of the deal. And purchased separately is a grapple for the front, a Land Pride SGC 1560, which should arrive next week. I also have my 72” medium duty brush hog and York rake to use with it as well.

Lots to do with it the way it is. I am waiting on 2’ bucket, 3-point kit, and grapple. I should be picking them all up together next week.

The M59 TLB is a 2012 and had just under 490 hours. It now has just under 500 hours.



Time to go to work.

Congratulations, M59s are nice machines. Your attachments were invalid when I clicked on them. Were they pictures?

Good deal Gas, No looking back now:thumbsup:
Did you get out of the red "flying carpet" ok? It seems to me that type (dedicated TLB) of machine is what you really need for your work.

Yup. Unfortunately you can’t get them with R-1 Ag tires. But I’ll get by. LOL

So I just went over 500 hours on the M59. It’s running great.

I’m looking into where I might mount a toolbox.

As soon as my three point hitch kit arrives. I’m going to build a carry all box for the back out of some old P.T. wood I have. It will require taking a couple things apart to repurpose the wood but will not cost me anything besides my labor.

I will mount a chainsaw holder, given to me by a firewood hoarder friend, on the side of that carry all box.
