*New* L3560 & L4060 Limited Edition. Kubota's value leader?

[@mttrapper]

I have the Grand 3560. It's a great machine. I traded my old B3350 (pre tier 4) for it. I work in the woods almost exclusively and because the bucket on my L805 loader is 72" I don't have a problem with tree branches and the loader hoses because it's wider than the hose position. The beefed up 3-point features beat the old turn buckle system by a light year or two. 72 year old guys like me don't need to manhandle anything. My motto is, "Don't life with your back; lift with hydraulics!" Keep these great videos coming Neil. You have no equal in the succinct and informative crowd. All the Bubbas that take 15 minutes in a 20 minute video to talk about their dogs are all wondering why you get so many more subscribers than they do. lol

[@rutigerescobar3827]

Ive got 3 kubota products in my shop right now, awaiting the assembly of my 4th, a new l4060 cab. This guy has no idea how much i rely on him for info. Awsome vids! Keep em coming.

[@nikao7751]

I've never driven a tractor in my life and my New job just bought me one of these L4060 with a cab and backhoe so I do appreciate the tour. God bless.

[@KubotaL4060]

Nice video, as usual. I bought my L4060 cab from Messicks 4 years ago, and it has been an awesome machine. There doesn't seem to be much left off the limited edition rops, but enough that I wouldn't have been interested in adding to the cabbed version. To each his own. A small correction is that that the throttle up button on the loader stick doesn't have to be full throttle, the rpm setting is programmable. I set mine at 2000, which works for me.

[@Dirtybird37]

I'm almost a year into owning the L4060 LE and I love it. Been using it mainly to clear overgrown pasture with grapple and tree puller. Also, use the landplane to maintain our long stone driveway.

[@broncogirl8232]

My Grand L4760 makes blowing a mile long road nice with the cruise control. Quite handy! Thanks for the video Neil

[@jimmcknight3021]

Our family is going in together to purchase the 3560 LE here in Western Arkansas from a local Kubota dealer. They had one in stock but the loader hasn't come in yet. I told him that we could wait because I figured we would have a longer wait to order the regular Grand L in a 3560. As part of the deal we are putting in the third function, because I want a grapple. I am excited because we really didn't give up much and the price difference takes care of the OEM third function.

[@whisperingeagle]

Just bought the 3560 after viewing all the vids and comments i feel pretty good about it . Got the hoe and a snow blower pretty spendy but we didnt want a riding lawnmower tractor. Dealing with te dealership was pleasant , informative and non pushy and helped us get what best suits are needs. Very nice tractor . 3560 4060 great for small ranch ,farm.

Those shingles are all I can pay attention to, every time. ..

I agree too! Good thing there probably aren't too many roofers watching the Messicks channel vs farmers, landscapers, etc haha

[@shockley7500]

The shingles, the soffit, and who knows what else.

@@shockley7500 I think there's some 1/2" conduit sticking out of the soffit on the right side...

They just need to put some barn galvanized roof panels on there and get rid of those composite shingles. Would give them the barn look for the farm equipment! 😁😁

Hi Neil. Well I got a kubota bx23s thanks to watching your excellent for 2 years. I am in California in the Mojave desert and a tractor n00b. Keep up the n00by videos, they are indeed appreciated. Peace from SoCal ✌🏾

[@profdave2861]

Great video, Neil! I am a proud owner of an L4060 cab unit and I can’t say enough good things about it. Not sure if I would have bought the Limited edition if it had been available when I made my purchase (Aug 2019, bought from a great local dealer here in Ontario Canada), but it’s nice for those that don’t really need everything the Grand L offers. Looking forward to the next video!

[@beermanssp]

How much did you pay ?

[@daviddodier8845]

I think Kubota’s definition of limited edition is funny! Every other manufacturer I can think of uses limited edition to mean all the bells and whistles.

[@georgespangler1517]

I have a 2006 L35 Kubota backhoe l bought from a friend a year after he bought it new so he took the buying new hit and I got it with 2 hoe buckets front grader bucket and forks that are incorporated into the trailer I got in the deal ,l payed 20,000 and was happy to see there selling for 29000 in mines condition I built a custom all 12 gauge aluminum cap much better then the ones they sell for them,,, I've never had a problem with mine it's a Hell of a machine,,,I have the full construction heavy duty frame..

[@eastgrander8017]

Just added the seat switch back on my L4060HSTLE. Part# TD170-47920. One word of warning to anybody as dumb as I apparently was. At first glance it looks as tho the plug wont fit the tractor wire harness. What you are actually looking at on the Gray connector is a cap. You need to press the release on the rear of the connector and pull that cap out. THEN, the switch plug will work. Big shout out to Nate in the parts Dept. for figuring this out for me. In my defense, there is no Parts Diagram for the 4060 LE yet.....that plug is shown on the L3560LE diagram.

[@tangoseal1]

Now this was an excellent video. I literally got a quote for a 4060 today. I think I am 100% sold on this very nice machine.

[@toddrabideau5576]

You should clarify that the “throttle-up” feature is/can be a preset desired rpm. Not necessarily “wide-open”. It’s a nice feature for sure. No snow in Pa?

[@earlyriser8998]

[@carterblann2290]

[@nealequipment3777]

Wish they offered a mid pto on these smaller grand L series. Would be wonderful for maintaining larger property. And ride across the bumps better than a B or LX Series.

[@MattN03]

The exposed loader hydraulic hoses would be a concern if you work much in the woods. My B3200's hoses are much better protected. Great video as always Neil!

[@martyscott3133]

That is the one disadvantage plus it is an eye sore. Looks like a cheap aftermarket add on.

[@rp1645]

Thank you for getting on U-Tube as a salesman Explaining all the operations of the wonderful Tractor's. I have the book Farm tractor 1950 to 1975. I am still confused about what the numbers mean.

[@havoc_64]

Hey Neil, about to buy a L3560 here in Kansas and was curious if you have a video on the bucket removal from the LA805?

[@jbcowherder6210]

many times in assembly line production, because there is a higher volume of the more "deluxe" features installed on something- think power windows vs. manual windows as an option on a car- it costs more to install the 'economy' setup vs. installing by volume the more deluxe option because of the economy of scale. in the car example, power windows actually cost the manufacturer less to equip a vehicle with because they buy a large volume of the same parts, vs. the manual windows which require 'special' door panels to accomodate the crank handle and different wiring in the vehicle which requires a 'special' wiring harness. i can see the same thing with tractors, my dad just purchased a manual transmission equipped L2501 that was a special order for our local dealer even though they had about a dozen hydrostat equipped "L"s on site- he's running a 3 point chipper for hours on end and didn't want or need the wear a hydrostat would encounter just sitting there running at 2k all day not moving.

[@MessicksEquip]

I think your spot on, was wondering this myself. Its much bigger than just the production side. There are added costs in printing new manuals, literature, parts diagrams, etc. Seems like a ton of work.

[@kdegraa]

Could a hydrostatic tractor be put in neutral if running stationary all day? Is a transmission suffering from wear and tear if it’s in neutral?

[@andys31337]

@@kdegraa yes it has neutral so no problem

[@KnauerJonathan]

This seems perfect for me. I wish they'd fix the website so I could configure one...but it's $1241 cheaper than a normal 4060, OK!!

[@outinthesticks1035]

Hi , my wife and I are planning a market garden as a working retirement and need a appropriate tractor. 5 ac to start with possible expansion to 40 . Looking at lx3310,L3301,and L3560. I am wondering if the lx is a bit to small , or the 3560 a bit big dimensionally for gardens . The bigger 1.8 engine and larger tires on the latter two are appealing to me . Theory being a bigger engine won't work as hard and last better. Most of the work would be loader , mower and rototiller ,with some tow behind tillage . I have to keep in mind that I have a industrial loader and a couple 200 hp tractors for heavy work

[@MessicksEquip]

You won't out work any of these tractors, but for the acreage that you're looking at I would go to the 3560.

What about the lack of a Mid PTO? the non LE has the gear box already. To add the gearbox to the LE is extremely expensive

[@MessicksEquip]

That's the same on the grand L as well, mid PTO is an option.

[@RaymondBarrett]

Thanks for this video! Looking at the 4060 and love the refresher from your older video. Awesome!

[@eugeneseamann3005]

Neil, does Kubota have a fire extinguisher bracket that mounts on the tractors?

[@MessicksEquip]

No

[@ThisOldMan-ya472]

The ROPS doesn't seem more sturdy than the ones on the BX, yet the two tractors are totally in different weight categories.

[@MessicksEquip]

For whatever reason, pretty well every tractor uses the same 2x3 tubing for the rops.

[@AntidumbisPeaceOmind]

I realize this is an old video and all dealers only talk about horsepower. But what about torque? The local dealer has no clue. Between the 3 and 4 cyl I'm sure the torque difference is quite large?

[@Etnieus515]

Can the L4060 handle a small square baler?

Like an old NH 256, yes. Not the newer small squares.

Do these two models come with the glide shift transmission? I would like all that the power going to the PTOs rather than HST.

[@TheMrrappel]

I like the idea of having the grand l series without a few of the features that aren't entirely necessary to the overall usability of the machine while still keeping the ergonomic controls and most convenient features as well as the look of the grand l, but when it comes down to it $1200 or so isn't really that deal breaking considering how much it costs when you add a loader and other options, you'd think they would go for the less expensive computer controlled transmission, that would shave off a few thousand I'm sure, probably be more of a make or break kind of price point for some people, but I guess if you buy the tractor based on the transmission then it kind of makes sense, but then like I said why not spend the extra little bit and get that much more

IF Kubota would get off their A-- of the 1970 thinking because the green tractor has this and put two hydro pedals side by side I would be a potential buyer of a grand L or even a basic MX series but they won't bend to the demands of the end user due to pride. Any tractor or piece of equipment/ truck with DPF or DEF is a big NO for me too. BIG BIG problems no matter what color tractor. I will search for a LONG time (months or years) to find a low hour model without DPF or DEF. That's why I still have my 06 Ram Cummins forever, 35,000 miles currently, only moves to work.

The pedal thing has been beat to death. We sell both styles. On the list of things to look for in a tractor it should be near the bottom.

You're taking Def way too seriously. It really isn't a big deal 😕.

[@paulnorman8274]

This specific transmission, by making the pedal so light and smooth as Neil aludes to in the video, as well as by being able to adjust responsiveness/jumpiness until you are more comfortable, makes the treadle pedal less troublesome than in other Kubotas. If you're a moron and drive tractors barefoot, you'll probably still prefer twins (...now, how would I know..... :) )
