Indeed - seemed to work well

 

The hydraulic lines are relatively cheap to replace, if I remember right for all my lines it was something like $100.00. I know a guy.
Get fuel gauge and and what you can but only if your comfortable with the price.

Cool

 

Tires are expensive that's for sure.

 

Loved my Kubota when I lived back in WV. Had the 60" belly mower for it as well.

 

Oddly enough, TSC had generic lengths of pre- made hydro hoses. If you require straight, NPT fittings, the price is better than going to NAPA and having the exact length hose made up.

Napa really bends you over when you require right angle flaired fittings or something similar.

 

I go to the local powertrain shop who makes lines for big trucks.

 

O’Reilly auto is the same way if you need anything other than a straight fitting. TSC hoses are the way to go, if you can.

 

How many hours does it have?
Lines at TSC or Amazon are $25-60 depending upon the length and fittings. I bought a 6’ hose for $29 last month. 5gal of hydro oil is a little less than $100, the engine will probably need two gallons of oil plus all of the filters. A complete service will cost about $250~ bucks. The tires are the most expensive thing to replace!

 

It’s 2006 with 820hrs.
Thanks much for the heads-up, everyone, on hoses and whatnot. I’m pretty sure it will do what I need of it; and I’ll likely sell it within a year, after the yard is set up. I figure the depreciation loss is less than what I’d pay renting one for about 100hrs worth of work; not to mention the convenience of doing the work when I want/can.

 

Expect to change them often. My boy blows a line or two every year.

 

Oh boy you got a B21!! Those are nice machines! Way better than a Terramite!

But if you are blowing hoses every year? Did you do the pressure increase deal on your pump?
I've never blown a hose on a Kubota or Kioti in factory pressures.

To the guy looking at the 7600.... For those hours & things broke/worn/cracked? That makes it a bit on the high end of the range. It looks nice & the hours are nothing for a 17yr old tractor....

Check the FEL bucket for wear & the deck spindles... This will tell you what they really did with it. Just ride around mowing or overloading the FEL. Check the FEL pins.

You can tube or fill the tires fairly cheap if the tread is still good.

 

Thanks! I did a few things with the bucket, watched the way it moved, lifted, etc. all pins have a little grime/grease but the bucket lip is in good shape. Didn’t notice any slop. Not getting a mow deck

 

It’s my boys. When he bought it the hoses were sketchy to begin with. So instead if going crazy he has changed the hoses on demand.
No pressure changes.
Stays outside exposed.

 

You mean, you were 15 minutes from my house and didn't tell me!?

Turkeyfoot is literally 15 minutes from the house

 

Oh I found you, friend...From the distance...In the shadows....

Was a little frustrating; friday the salesman said "sure thing - pop on over tomorrow!" and when I got there, there were two parts guys there who said "I dunno...we're parts. No sales guys in today." Parts guys seemed nice and all that, but knew no history of the machine, nor could they help me buy it. How the F a sales guy gonna tell a customer to come see something he wants to buy, but not tell him "Sure - make the 3+ hour round trip to look at it, but you won't be able to negotiate or buy it because I won't be here."

At least I know a guy 15 minutes from there who can stop in and tie things up if needed. Say....do you have a trailer that can haul 1800lbs of tractor? Wanna earn some gas money???

 

Got the garden weeded yesterday afternoon

Took the tiller to it the soil looks great for as hot and dry as it's been.

 

I instantly recoginized the area when you posted the picture. I was like "hey wait a minute" All ya gotta do is head South on 11 and go West on 16 at the intersection in Greencastle, go several miles and I'm right on 16.

Friend bought a used Terrimite Backhoe from them many, may years ago. Pretty sure still gets the occasional part for it from there. Hoses I get at a place in Hagerstown that's only like another 15 minutes from here. Go right past it every day going to work.

I'm actually free Monday after getting the Jetta inspected at 11am, and nothing on my plate Tuesday. Feel free to reach out!

Don't have a trailer unfortunately. I barely use my truck as a truck

 

Still looks better than my lawn. It's super crispy...

 

Ours is crunchy in the front yard. We cut it a week ago Monday and probably won't cut it again till it starts raining again.

 

Oh, I really fudged up and applied Triple 19 thinking it was going to keep raining. Yea, that was a HUGE mistake!
