Hey you ME/NH guy's with new "B" Kubota's; C/L Maine (Brunswick) Kubota Rear Remote Kit I'm not very familiar with the "B" but a rear "remote" can be very handy for hydraulic functions like a rear snow blower chute rotation or a hydraulic top link, etc. I know they are pricey at the dealer.
Couldn’t resist the urge any longer. There are a bunch of blown down trees on the property. The sun is shining and chips are flyin.
It’s kinda a jumbled mess of good and rotted wood. A bonfir is in order while there is still some snow on the ground.
Try using your 3-pt in the back instead of your bucket if possible. Much stronger lift and your tires will have more grip going forward than in reverse. Just sayin'
I’ve worked on a few orange skidders in my day, just saying...looks pretty dry there already. I’d guess you’re a couple weeks ahead of us. I’m hoping we don’t get a bunch of rain before it dries up some. I’d love to be doing the same thing.
I have a bunch of wood cut and split in piles that needs to be stacked but it’s too wet on that side of the yard. So why not pull more out on the dry side!
I finally got a day decent enough to take the snowblower off and mount the quick hitch. My neighbor came over and helped me assemble the wood splitter and chipper and we hooked the chipper up to the tractor and tested it and the splitter of course, just enough to make sure everything was hunky dory. Sorry, pictures to follow. It’s great to have good neighbors!
Used the bota for an afternoon this weekend for digging a ditch that I'm using for drainage. I picked up some stone today, and filled the ditch before adding pipe this week. Amazing how fast i dug a 3ft deep ditch by 40ft with the loader. Good stuff!
Time to move the cows to the outer pastures. Still too early for grazing, but the ground is drier out here and the spring up on the hill is providing plenty of water.
Felled and blocked 6 trees yesterday with help from a neighbor and my SIL. One pine, the rest beech. The pine had a beech growing right beside it and the tops were twisted together so I dropped them together. Beech in the back, cut that first leaving a 2” hinge, then cut the pine and they fell perfectly. The Kubota is really handy for lifting the logs to a comfortable cutting height. Lots of brush to chip and splitting to do today!
