#70 Quick and Easy Drainage Repair, Grading with Kubota

In this video I do a little excavating and grading with the Kubota Compact Tractor ( L 3901) to fix a lack of drainage issue below the pond. This will keep water from collecting and turning things to mud.

You Are Very Creative With That Box Scraper!! 👊

[@daveknowshow]

looks like a fun day in the tractor seat to me!

[@5305boat]

Looks good. The float function on tractors can really make that finish work easy

[@mutchmedia]

thanks Mike - I have been enjoying all of the topics and videos you have been producing. I am from Kingston, Ontario. Always watch with my morning coffee, gets me motivated to work on similar projects around my small property. Thank you!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Glad you enjoy them Robert

[@augustreil]

If people graded their yards that good, they would have better lawns ! Awesome job, looks beyond perfect !

[@fightswithspirits915]

Will those rippers work to clear sage brush or just use box and go through it?

[@portugeeprepper6821]

Good job workin that box blade!! Thanks Mike

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Portugee Prepper, thanks

[@bubba49r]

I don’t know but I like the red tractors a little better

[@Divemedic14]

Good video. Glad I came across the page a few days back. I grew up on a farm, but now just rely on FB to get my tractor fix. I'm surprised there is not more fall leave up that far north. Deer season is just a few weeks away for us. I can imagine what it must look like there when they start moving.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

They are starting to fall, Im not holding my breath for a great fall foliage year. Not sure yet what will happen. We had a real cool spell early but now its in the 80's so everything is out of whack

[@MrMharley]

Great job mike and I got the 3M Bluetooth last week and I love mine

[@markkopf7526]

Any tractor time is a good time! and you do really good work with your tractor in a short amount of time. You're right about the weather changing, we went from high 80's in Seattle 2 weeks ago to having snow fall in the mountains this week which is just fine by me as I was drawn for a once in a lifetime Bull Moose tag in the state which opens on Oct 1st and I was getting worried about it being to hot to get the Moose Rut started.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Which that means in about a week it will cool down here!

[@ddelano7408]

Greetings again from a rainy Thanksgiving day in MA. Good time to catch up on more of your videos! Do you have any other tips to using a box blade such as when and when not to use float function. I've never used a box blade so any advise would be welcome. Happy Thanksgiving to your family!

[@kk5sc]

Mike have you considered a steering wheel knob since you do so much loader work? I have always used one on any tractor with loader or forklift l have ran for any length of time. When asked, my Kubota dealer gave me a free one with my L3301 tractor and loader purchase

[@comlbbeau]

I concur about the steering wheel knob. I don't do loader work, but any task requiring lots of steering inputs is made easier with the knob. Just be careful not to get whacked by it if the front wheels recenter and get your steering wheel turning without your input.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

kk5sc, yea I need to get one

[@1017Bucky]

It might work. Or, you might need a culvert. Looks nice though.

[@chaysebrown1028]

Keep up the good work mike!! Really enjoy your videos very informational!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks Chase, Where you from

[@chaysebrown1028]

Southern West Virgina.

[@raffy1ca]

That box blade sure does a nice job! Need to get one for my B2320. Great video! Cheers from Saskatchewan!

[@tommyordoyne7461]

Thanks again. I'm learning a lot. This channel could be for college credit. The major would be 'Hard Work' made to look easy.

[@semco72057]

I like the way you graded the soil down where the water won't be sitting in the road. I need to do the same thing at our family place, and will when I get time.

[@Artist21st]

Nice work!

[@billsmith9610]

Lay a tarp on the garage floor and it is an easy cleanup.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Good Idea, Where you from Bill? Is this the Bill I know? Bill Smith is pretty common name I know lol

[@billsmith9610]

I don't know you , but i'm not too far from you. Clear heavy plastic works best because when driving in with muddy tires , it sticks less.

[@WalkerOutdoors]

Just found your channel nice work man you run that like a pro

[@maryaldrich5982]

Nice work.. Thank you for sharing

[@ODLife]

Great video Mike! Great info!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks!

[@lurch6571]

Have you ever thought about a culvert for some of these areas?

[@etxhooligan5026]

ever have any issues with the R4 tires in muddier areas ?

[@wyattearp6883]

Who's dog?

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

My sisters, she lives nearby

[@shawn5928]

How well do you feel the L3901 handles that 6' box blade? I have been trying to decide between the 5' and 6' box to get for mine.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

I think it perfect, I use it very often working it up hill and down and the 3901 handles it very well

[@bkexcavating1054]

hey mike a real blade hand doesn't back drag ha just messin with ya keep the videos coming. your neighbor from kittanning

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Hah your right

[@scottdavis6054]

Congrats on 70 videos! Keep them coming. From Middle TN.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Will do

[@markduncan6690]

Nice Work! Sure like that tractor!

[@botabob]

Thanks for the explanation at the end. It is helpful advice that will help on my projects.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

You're welcome and thanks for watching Robert

[@anto1191]

05.19 you are being stalked to your left hand side.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Hah, Yea

[@senecaslimes4042]

These are my favorite videos to watch

[@bryantremmel2996]

wait if its that close to your pond your pond might have a leake.we dont live to far from each other and we havent got much rain the past couple week.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

I thought that as well before but I don't think it is, We had a isolated rain last week. It's not wet and muddy all the time just after rains but it did stay that way for a while. Lots of clay there as well so it doesn't soak in either

[@NothnRunsLikeADeere]

Nice work! And good advice!

[@humbleheart7196]

Box blade or Land Leveler, which would you recommend?

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Never had a land leveler but I like the box blades ability to carry dirt with you as you go

[@jpdavis7676]

Great Job...now when are we getting a backup camera for the tractor? LOL

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

John Davis, yea that would be very nice

[@cfowler12317]

Great job Mike. My trails never look that good after taking the box blade to them.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

cfowler12317, I have had a lot of practice

[@TractorTech]

Nice job.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks

[@terronnehopson8524]

Awesome video as always Mike looks fun buddy!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks Terronne

[@cranberrywx7870]

Boy Mike, how do we rate such nice weather here this past week. I haven't recorded any rain for the last 7 days. I'm surprised to see that low spot still has damp soil. This has been a good week if you have any outdoor projects and looks like it will continue into next week, though not good if you are trying to seed some bare spots. I'm heading to our camp tomorrow to mow and do some outside repairs. Have a good weekend!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

CranberryWX, I know right? I have a feeling we are going to get a good winter though. We will see

[@cranberrywx7870]

Snow plowing videos with the tractor?

[@johnstaub359]

Old school Thanks

[@TheTorkerman]

You make it look so easy Mike. Thanks for sharing.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thank You

[@Cav5419]

You make this look too easy!

[@questioneverything2152]

Love my box blade, very versatile.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

My favorite

[@ricksaylor5129]

Nice video Mike! You make it so easy!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks Rick

[@billkenner6204]

Grass seed in the fall. Fescue?

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

I went with annual and perennial rye, but I do use Fescue quite a bit as well

[@johnglennon4245]

Great Job and Great Videos !

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks John

[@kevinfinney8849]

Sure enjoy your land

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Appreciate it, We love it here. Buying land years ago is the only thing my wife will openly admit that i was right about lol

[@sgt_jr3232]

Looks great.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks, I appreciate it

[@fwflyer78]

Good work!

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]
