    Well got to try my 10,000 pound winch out

    I've found on electric winches if you are working them hard the hot wire to the battery can get very hot, if it's a long run to the battery that just makes matters worse. A chunk of electric welding cable eliminates this small problem ☺

    Well got to try my 10,000 pound winch out

    Just wondering if a portable winch that hooks onto the rear trailer hitch ball would have been useful? I have a winch on the front also but have seen the time when a pull from the rear would have helped.

    Hand Throttle

    I'm in Canada right now, about six hours drive from the dealer. When I get back I will take it in. This is a new dealer that sells farm machinery of many brands. The UTVs are something new for them. Last week the only one they had was a new 500 from last year

    Hand Throttle

    My face is red ☺ spent two hours today trying to duplicate the downshift. I have a small trip planned for tomorrow, will try once more. The only other new odd thing is it now takes a lot of rpm to start moving. I suspect the 50 hour checkup will cure any small problems.

    What If...

    I've drove tanks with hydro static transmissions, their is no need for Kubota to have a transmission that thinks on its own or to leave the factory without being tested and adjusted.

    Hand Throttle

    I've only tried this at about 7-8 mph on the level, the engine revs up and the speed drops to about 3 mph. It sounds and feels like a gear change ☺ I'm heading north in the morning for maybe a week will give it a good workout on my road. From the knowledge I've gathered on this forum, it could...

    Hand Throttle

    Nope, the shifter stays in high range. As soon as you push down on the throttle with your foot off the fuel pedal the transmission shifts back to high. I never did keep my foot on the pedal while pushing the throttle down. Will give that a try Sunday The ability to downshift while moving would...

    Hand Throttle

    My dealer contacted Kobota that say it should not happen, I take it in for the 50 hour checkup in about a week. Going by the serial number it seems that some X900's left the factory with transmission pressure adjustments that were way off. A factory rep has talked with my dealers head wrench...

    Hand Throttle

    I installed the factory hand throttle on my 2016 X900, the results are not quite what I expected In high range going about 7mph I pulled the hand throttle out, the machine downshifted to low range. I'm a little dense at time but I was expecting the engine speed to increase without the...

    Installing Skid Plate/Hitch Extension on 1120D

    I don't THINK it will, with mine the new shaft was about a 1/4 inch to long, I removed the rubber bumpers and installed the new one over the Kubota plate, the other option would have been grinding off a 1/4 inch on the new shaft

    Absolutely Love My New Kubota RTV X900

    I've only had my X900 for a about six weeks, I installed the air filter lift kit. Just a tad peppier which I think is due to a much shorter hose length to the engine. It even sounds like a little diesel engine now ☺☺

    Changing to a higher gear ratio is not the way to go faster with a under powered engine. ☺☺

    Straight Pipe

    To get away from the spark arrester I've been toying with the idea of a muffler for a 28-40 hp tractor. I suspect that a straight pipe on the little engine might affect the fuel ratio which is something above my pay grade. I do know running any engine too lean can be expensive☺
