"Hi, The latest 2nd hand acquisition came with a three point hitch and a dozer blade operated by one hydraulic cylinder, it has no rake adjustment but has vertical travel of about one meter, a little above horizontal and a little below. The clutch actuating level had sheared on the point that it enters the bell housing because it had a coil return spring wrapped around the shaft which stressed the shaft to failure, the replacement was a blade spring integrated shaft, adjustable off of cast-in bracket on the bell housing. The three point hitch has stress the lower alloy case mounting to the point of failure and needs to welded or replaced. The hour meter is cable operated and failed at 675 hours. Other than these cons, it is a good machine, expensive for what you get, but acceptable."

"We have been using the Kubota for towage, transport and added a Cochet shovel from the beginning to clean the horse stables, displace soil and stones, lift heavy items (blocks of stone, boats, concrete tubes). We are very pleased with the reliable and also comfortable operation (lots op space for the feet). It's quite easy to use for a tractor novice, performance and safe in operation. I recently use a ground cutter (100 cm, 40 inch) to prepare the vegetable garden and that was also a job well done. I was a bit afraid about the power, but the 24 HP did the job. Now looking for a woodcutter to connect to the PTO. I am looking forward to long years of versatile jobs!"
