I was considering a Curtis plow to be put on the front of my Kubota Loader to plow snow. My salesman advised me not to do that because when I would have the plow angled it may put too much stress on my loader. Is this a problem? I am trying to come up with a means to plow snow where I don't have to look back. I really don't have too much luck just with a bucket on the loader since I have a gravel driveway. Any ideas without a lot of cost?

Does anyone know how the size of the cab compares between the Deere 20 series compact versus the Kubota Grand L 40 series? I just drove a Kubota and I did not feel very comfortable with the steering wheel tilted. I am 6' 2" and weigh approximately 200. I currently own a Kubota L3830 and was looking for a tractor with a cab.

Does Kubota have any rebates or low rate financing now on the Grand L 40 series tractors? If there is, how long does it last?

I own the 3830 and it is a good tractor. However, I want a tractor with a cab that has heat and a/c.

With the Grand L40 series being new should a person buy a Grand L30 series right now until the 40 series has been on the market for while in case there are any "bugs" in the new tractors?

In order to install the cab on the tractor , do I need to drill any holes in the fenders or the platform? Do I need to remove the assist handles on the fenders?

I was wondering about the compatibility of the joy stick valve lock on the LA723 loader with the Curtis Cab on the Grand L 30 series tractors. I can't find any pictures of how the joy stick fits through the cab and how the weather is sealed out from that area. Can anyone gives some explanation as to how this works?

I use the tractor for mowing grass in the summer at which tiem I will probably take the doors off. However, I wil be using it to plow snow in Northern Wisconsin. In the past I had an IH 886 tractor with the same type of set up and I didn't have any heat and didn't have a problem. However, that was a lot bigger cab.

I currently own a L3830 with HST. However, I am considering trading it for a cab tractor. I use the tractor for moving snow and mowing grass. Should I stay with a HST or should I consider a GST or FST especially in view of reliability?

For Art White. Which cab, Sims or Curtis, has the best fit on the tractor? Can they both accomodate the joy stick for my loader which is mounted on the right side of the hood/dash? Do they both take about the same amount of effort to install on the tractor? I am looking at the soft sided cab due to cost.

On Saturday I wanted to test if my L3830 would run the alternator that would power my house if I lose electrical power. The tractor can do it however, the problem I have is that I must sit on the seat when the PTO is running. Does anyone have a suggestion how to bypass the safety switch so I can get the job done? I don't want to sit on the seat when it is really cold outside.

I only plan to haul one tractor at a time. I was looking at the 14000 GVW because it has some features that a 10000 GVW doesn't have such as brakes on both axels. I don't want a gooseneck trailer due to the cost of the trailer and the hitch.

I plan to change the coolant in my L3830. However, after reading the book I can't figure out how to drain the coolant out of the overflow tank. Anyone have a suggestion as to how this done other than to unbolt it and tip it over. I would think there has to be a better way. Ideas??????????????

I plan to change the antifreeze in my 2004 L3830 and want to use the premixed kind. Are there any specifications that I need to follow for the antifreeze?

Why is the rsnge on the L3830HST dipstick so small? My hydrostatic lawn tractor dipstick has a wider range. When I check it the tractor has to be setting on a perfectly level spot in order to have a true measurement. If it is setting on any type of slope it may indicate that I need to add fluid where in realty on a level spot it is full.

I agree with you Art White the pad is very critical. I always take it off within my shed on a concrete floor. The last time we were having problems putting it on the tractor the right rear tire was a little low on air. That little difference made it nearly impossible to mount.

I wasn't even plowing any snow when I needed the brakes. I had gotten off the edge of the driveway and I couldn't get back on. The current Kubota design doesn't make any sense.

When I bought my tractor I was perplexed about John Deere or Kubota. I opted to buy a L3830. I think it is a great tractor. The problem is that based on past expereince I think Kubota is a poor company in comparison to John Deere. I think the Kubota Corporation and their dealer network need to take some lessons from John Deere for after the sale support.
