    KX41-2V no joy with joy sticks

    It's hard to say as this was 3 years ago but it was clearly visible. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Also had mice shew a wire in the engine compartment but not all the way through. Also they filled my air cleaner wiht seed. How they get in there I have no idea. I hate mice.

    KX41-2V no joy with joy sticks

    I had a very similar problem happen to my KX 41 - 3. When I pulled out the floor board I found a wire had been chewed through by a mouse. I simply spliced the wire and it was as good as new. I hate mice.

    Hauling 2 small machines

    Hi John, I've pretty much figured out that my tow vehicle is under powered. I do love how you've stuffed that excavator into the dump trailer. I stuff my 2 ton excavator into a 10foot dump in exactly the same way but mine looks a lot more comfy that your's does.

    Hauling 2 small machines

    I'd like to haul both my Mini Excavator (2 ton) and CUTractor on one flat bed. The tractor weighs about 2500 pound or less so a 5 ton trailer should do it. Weight isn't the concern. It's balance and trailer wheel placement I am not sure about. I'd like to be able to use the trailer to haul one...

    Kubota 310 wheel loader

    I'm looking at a Kubota 310 wheel loader to buy. I can't find anything about them when I search the internet. Anyone have any knowledge about them. Thanks! Bill

    How many hours are too many on a mini excavator?

    Larger minis may have more life in them but based on discussions I had with a rental outfit they figure their Kubota 2 ton machines start requiring repairs at around 1500 hour. A that point they sell them for half price. I guess that means they figure half the life is left in them.
