yes I was thinking about the bed not being secure but I always put weight in the bed (700lbs) during winter for traction and I hope this will keep it planted to the frame.

Hey guys. I am planning on utilizing the dump circuit on my 1100c to angle my snow plow during the winter months. The plan is to disconnect the lines to the dump cylinder and leave it in place. My question is can I just connect the two lines going to the cylinder together with a joiner so I can...

I use motorcycle jack for jacking the 1100C. Placed under the rear or front it can lift both wheels off the ground easily and with the use of the locking feature, it is very secure.

Just for my own piece of mind, I contacted the service manager at our local Kubota dealer today and asked him about the cycling of the AC pump on the X1100C. He replied that the cycling of the pump every 15 seconds or so is normal for these machines.

My understanding is that the AC pump cycles the compressor clutch as per the design of it. It is controlled by a temperature sensor at the evaporator core. I know my machine has been doing this since new and never has it not blown cold air.

I believe this is normal. My 2017 X1100C has been this way since new. Both my vehicles also cycle their AC pumps.

Nice job, good practical addition to your hitch. Thanks for taking the time to show us.

I am planning on using the Hydraulic circut for the dump bed on my X1100C to power the angle feature of my snow plow. I plan on running these lines from the back where the dump cylinder is loacted to mount on the front bumper area. Has anyone done this? I am wodering about the best route to...

Hey Paul, never got around to installing the circuit board for the wiper. Looks simple enough though with a rotary delay dial. Will post pics when I get at it.

The only thing I am aware of under the seat of the X1100C is the Hydraulic reservoir. It is loacted under the passemger seat. The HST and Engine oil are accessed under the dump bed. The front differential is checked behind the rubber protectetor at the rear of the front bumper.

For everyone's information, the line size I was asking about is 3/8"

Can someone tell me the sizing of the hydraulic lines going to the dump cylinder on a X1100C?

I know its weird for them to say not to use it while driving but I will try using it while plowing as my driveway has a bit of a slope to it and plowing snow up grade does cause the engine to bog near the top of it.

Can someone tell me why the manual for the 1100C states not to use the hand throttle while driving the vehicle? Also, what is the difference in the optional hand throttle kit that Messicks sells as apposed to the pull up type on the 1100C? Would there be any issue setting the pull throttle to...

I assume you are plowing in low range? If I plow into real heavy snow in high range the engine struggles and actually stalled once.

Funny but what you discribe is a typical winter here in eastern Canada.

I It does. I will be looking more into it.

Received the circut board today. Tidy little unit that looks like it will work out quite well. Will post when completed.

And even done this in your kitchen! ;-)

Hi Paul, never received it yet. Ebay, Covid etc.... should have it next week. Will update when I receive it.
