My main concern with this tractor is its weight. It tends to tip forward too much when I'm lifting heavy loads. That said, the lighter weight has its advantages-especially around the swampy areas on my property. Whenever it gets stuck, I'm grateful it's not any heavier! I have no issues with the lack of a cab, either. In fact, I appreciate how quickly I can hop in and out.
@PheasantLaneFarm22 күн бұрын
@1thatdreams our property tends to lay wet so I get exactly what you are saying. Rarely do I not have some sort of implement in the back, so that really helps with the stability. Recently we've been feeding a lot of round hay bales and it's been doing fine if I take my time. However a heavier tractor with a slightly larger foot print would be nice.

I don't know why kubota insists on putting the split brakes where you can't use them with the HST? I've got a 2011 Kioti DK40SE and my barnyard is a clay soil base on a bit of a slope, so the split brakes are very very useful! Or when plowing snow, you can almost pretend you have a skid steer. I guess it was the "deluxe" tractor at the time, and its got all the fancy 3pt stuff you want, plus a lever to raise and lower the 3pt from the back.... Kioti is making the NS series now which is basically the DKSE again, fully featured, heavy, and the loader will lift 2700lbs. If your local dealer is good, have a look at them compared to the similar featured Kubota.
@PheasantLaneFarmАй бұрын
@iandyck9605 I don't really have a dealer close. JD and Kubota are the main ones. I think the few LS that were here all went out of business. There was a Mahindra but I'd have to see if he's still going. I've watched videos of the Kioti ans they look impressive.
@iandyck9605Ай бұрын
@@PheasantLaneFarm It is tough to buy a new tractor without a good local dealer. I guess now, with my experience I would buy a lightly used Kioti DKSE without a local dealer, as it is KISS and with the service manual, any independent tractor mechanic could work on it. But with a new tier4 tractor of any color, a local dealer is probably a good idea in case things go sideways. My local Kioti dealer is by far the best for customer service for CUT's, as the big dealers weren't very interested in selling a little tractor and are much further away. You've done a lot with your tractor in any case, any of them are much better than doing everything by hand!

10/11/24, 5;37am EST Great Job and Smart. I like keeping the cattle & other smaller Livestock separate, but together. I've been thinking about having a place to sit when one is about to give birth and also have an area to serve as the feed/med/office/tack/etc room with the WashBay/Grooming/Farrier/Vet/Dental space at the other end where the 2nd garage door can access away from the Foaling Box are so they can drive in and and out while the pregnant Mare is not so easily stressed. I have been researching barns and barn setups for the past few years and now that I am retired I can finally have my Farm. Congrats, you did a Great job explaining why you did this and that. I have been thinking to build a separate temporary Clear Span building with garage doors at both end to keep the gas/diesel/ equipment away from the office and Animals. Making it a pass through design for the tractors, Livestock Box Trailer, 1-2-horse Trailer, Kubota, mower, the 1 ton diesel tow truck, pallet mover, snow plow, etc. My thought is making them both temporary until the permanent barn plans have been approved and built. I am also planning on having a classroom setup for the local FFA and the 4-H to use for the children who do not have the means and place to care for their 4-H/FFA projects. This way, I have more time to get the place surveyed and watch it through the seasons watching for rainwater and snow melt flow patterns and meanwhile get my projects started. I like the idea of temporary building use so that I can have it moved to a different space where it can repurposed... like for a greenhouse & Aquaculture setup, or other use.

It happens frequently it comes and goes. Funny thing, this same condition happened when pulling a small rental dump 6x12. I know there are all of the factors of tongue weight, capacity ect, but I have been within the specs. My main question, have you experienced this lurching motion pulling a loaded trailer? Thanks.

@MrPhillip25 ай бұрын
Kubota needs to use these tractors in order to know that you can’t push the gas and brake at the same time? I returned my L2501 for a L2502 because they fixed the problem by removing the clutch and shifting the brake pedals to the other side. I need to use gas and brake to take tight turns at the ends of the rows in my garden. The left arm rest/grab is standard (on the 2502) being left handed, I use it. Cruise control is an option, but if you mow a large field, your foot will get tired of being in the treadle pedal all the time (non-ergonomic), it is more of a necessity than an option for me.

in 2/24, i started looking for a dump trailer and my research began. ive looked at all the offerings in my area, the upper midwest, where pretty much all manufactures are represented. i got to see all these in person and i crawled all over them looking at everything. diamond c had some of the worst welds along with big tex. a smaller big tex dump trailer wasnt even completely painted on the inside of the dump box!!! after a couple months of driving thru trailer lots, looking over the trailers, asking questions and reading/watching things online, i bought a southland sl714-16k dump trailer. $11.5k off the lot and then more for title, tax and licensing. main reason i went with southland is because theyre built different which seems to be a better design. do your own research and make up your own minds. dont know about long term issues if any but right now, im pretty satisfied where my money went to.
