Ranger350. The PIP (Product improvement plan) on the hundred series was the addition of a top fine mesh screen. This was added due to some people suffering pump damage from contaminants. On the 10 series they have added a spin-on filter under the left side footboard as an extra precaution. This is why I posted , as I want to know if anyone has made the upgrade to their hundred series tractors.<br>
I hope this helps

Big Jim and AV8R, Below is what was sent to me from the product manager at Kubota. In my opinion it is not hard getting it off, the issue is getting it back on. I have asked if the installation is the reverse of the removal.

Greg:

For the BX1500, remove the grass catcher as described below. (disregard the wood blocks if it is not a BX1500, step #2) 1. Place tractor on flat surface.
2. Place 2 pieces of 2 x4 wood blocks under the rear tires to raise the rear end about 2". Shut off tractor.
3. Lower the grass catcher parking stands as shown in page 10 of the ops
manual.
4. Loosen the check chains on the 3 pt hitch lift arms.
4. Disconnect the top link pin from the top link support on the tractor.
The grass catcher parking stands should now be contacting the ground.
5. Disconnect the right hand side 3PT lift arm from the grass catcher
hitch pin.
NOTE: Careful with the lift arm as it is not connected to the tractors lift rod arm.
6. Disconnect the left hand side lift arm from the grass catcher hitch pin.
NOTE: Careful with the lift arm as it is not connected to the tractors lift rod arm.
7. Disconnect the grass catch PTO shaft from tractor.
8. Start tractor and move forward. Shut off tractor.
9. Remove the tractor lift arms off the grass catcher storage area as shown in page 13 of the manual. Connect the tractor lift arms to the tractor as shown on page 8 of the grass catcher manual.

Interesting about the R4 tires being poor in clay. I have often considered trying to get something different for my 4200. I have turf tires and my property is mostly clay and very hilly. Actually, the turf tires serve me well if the ground is dry or soft. But when it is muddy, they quickly become packed and nearly useless on hills! However I suppose if I switched to a more aggressive tread I would just be unhappy about how rough they were on my turf. If only they made a tire that was good at everything :-)

husky125,
Do you have the downhill runaway problem also? Mine works fine except when going downhill. Temperature is also a factor. It definitely gets worse as it get hot. I assume this is probably just because the viscosity drops some.

To be fair, you cant expect another lenar dealer to work on your tractor for free! Why try to hurt him? He may be a very good dealer.

Sorry but I still think your dealer shafted you! With any chinese tractor their will be some fixes needed here and their, but most aren't very bad. He obviously wasn't prepared to do anything.

I still don't understand. If all lenar tractors are junk, how do explain an operation like cooper tractors and all the compliments and good words we have heard about them.

Other than you, all I have heard is positive feedback from lenar owners. I think with chinese tractors you have to be able to rely on your dealer.

Sorry about your misfortune, but I don't think going around trying to put people out of business is the answer. Is your goal putting lenar out of business? Even if you do succeed, what are you doing to all the lenar buyers who have good dealers. They would then be stuck with no way of getting parts and no one to work on them.

You should be hoping lenar gets big, then requires their dealers to work on all lenars, and in turn raises the resell value of the tractor.
I wish you luck.

I would keep my eyes open for a slightly used 4100 or 4110
which if you sold your 2210 you might make it a wash...

Why take a large hit like that? save that hit for a backhoe attachment!!

There is no need to idle for 5 minutes.
After running hard for a period of time I do try to idle for a breif period, maybe 1 minute.
On a turbo charged engine a 3 minute idle period is recommended, but that will not apply to your machine.

I think you should be in the $8,000 - $9,000 range or lower. I researched the x70 series this winter, they were sold from 1989 to 1998. As a comparison, I bought a 1997 970 with 880 hours, 4wd, 440 loader and Woods 7500 backhoe for $12,000. The backhow needed new bushings and pins but the tractor is in very good shape.

I have a JD 970 and would be interested in the turf tires if you want to sell them separately. What are the tire sizes and price if you are interested? Do you have any pictures that could be loaded onto this site?

Thanks, Bob

Getting Worse
Greetings all,

Well things have gone from bad to more bad. Now the booms will not move at all unless I hold the joystick in position for 5 to 10 seconds and the power steering is going too. Can a leak in The return hose behind the filter cause the system to do this? Seems pretty severe. The 3 point also is slow but I do not detect a major leak " oil on the floor". The Dealer just picked it up today so we $hall $ee what the damage i$. Ill keep you informed. Again Thanks. Tracer

jkporter, I am sure Art can get you whatever you need. Another source of parts and manuals for older Kubota's is Tractor Smart. Ask for Ronnie Bowman. He was very helpful to me when I had my L245. Those are fantastic little diesel tractors. I am sure you will be very satisfied with it.

Since you specified a backhoe; I would strongly recommend the John Deere 4115. Mark I am sure can cover all the details of this machine as compared to others of this size with a hoe on the back.

Murf, the farm is fenced and cross fenced. Looks to have been done fairly recently although I have been having to put up with thieves steeling fence posts. I have been thinking about leasing out for some cattle. Good fertilizer return as well. ;o)

It could be that the 790 and the 990 are 100% manufactured in Japan. Only the 4010, 4110, and 4115 of the 4000 Ten Series tractors are totally manufactured in Japan the rest are assemble in the plant in GA.
