This is my Kubota L175 diesel tractor. It's pretty beat up, but it was cheap and it runs and works great. Everything Kubota: http://amzn.to/2bvZPbj I would like to get some regular agricultural tires and wheels for it, though. It needs more weight in the front too; all around really. One of these days I plan to put a front-end loader on it. Not one of the new ones that cost thousands of dollars, of course. I'll do it in true Possum Living fashion by either building it from scratch, or finding something in poor condition (and probably built for another tractor) and rebuild/modify it to work. The Kubota L175 is basically the same tractor as the grey-market Zen-Noh ZL1500. I am using it to pull my 1966 Sears Suburban 12 garden tractor out of the briars in preparation for getting it running again, and possibly converting it to run on propane. I have other videos up of the Suburban running. I included some pictures here of the condition its cast-iron 12 hp Tecumseh HH120 was in when I got it. Basically, it had been parked with its exhaust valve open for an unknown length of time, and the top portion of the cylinder rusted and locked up the engine. For this reason, I got the whole thing for $80. I wrote an article about my trip to Kentucky to pick it up, complete with camping in the rain in the Land Between the Lakes (right beside the bridge that a ship hit and destroyed a couple of months ago, as it turns out).

A little shot of starting fluid would be much quicker.

I know these little Kubota's are limited in there weight , but how about their power ? Like mowing , plowing , or any other work? The one I have is still being put together and having to make parts that were missing. We have bigger tractors but wanted one for plowing gardens in town or mowing small grown over places. But mainly they're just cute and have wanted one for years. My fenders were destroyed like it had rolled over or fell off a cliff. I made a smaller set and mounting them as far out as possible and gonna widen the floor boards and widen the brake pedals. my size 14 boot gets hung in the brake pedals. Other than my time I don't have alot of $$$$ in it and knowing it'll sell , but hope it has plenty of power to earn it's keep.

That looks like my place with the Suburbans. I luvs those Suburbans , great machines. Also have the same Kubota in the barn that was in boxes when I got it. I soo. found out the steering sector box is tbe weak link on these tractors. Water runs down at the steering wheel and fills up the box. If simply washing the grease out doesn't where it out winter freeze will burst and destroy it. Hanging up I had a Model T Ford steering box to use. I just couldn't afford the new one and knowing if it got rained on it would do the same thing over. Also my hood and fenders are destroyed, but have an 8N Ford hood to cut down to fit. Think I'll paint it like a red belly Ford.

might buy one to compete in the Horticultrual and Single Furrow class in the UK

And this ladies and gentlemen is how to burn up a starter

How much did it coats

See details KUBOTA machine in : http://www.handvietnam.com/

i can tell you, its a japanese made kubota right??,and not the ones made in USA...

v,,,,, good

I have one of these tractors but no manual and not sure how to check oil levels in transmission/hydraulics and also what is the knob under the seat that you can turn to lock?

in for salle ?

Surprised the battery didn't die lol but the mire compression u have the easier diesels start without glow plugs

I should clarify the glow plugs are to be in series with the indicator but in parallel with each other so it will be under 12v but not far off so if you do run 12 v to them 10 seconds is ideal but note the time will changed based on temp such as outside condition or if the plugs were just applied seconds earlier

They are a great tractor, But I can`t help it I have to correct some thoughts, it is 1.5 ohms resistance not volts (I checked my manual) they are to be wired in parallel (each one gets 12 volts, they each get ground in the head) and if you glow it 10 seconds that is ideal 30 will burn them up fast. The indicators are available aftermarket and are very reasonable.

Sounds like a tractor I would like. Actually I have an A, but it is the styled version. I need to get a carb for it so I can get it running. But I have seen a few old tractors and trucks too, still on the job while being held together with baling wire and the occasional ugly but strong weld.

Reminds me of when I was a kid. Our dog always got excited & barked when he knew we were going to start the tractor, too. Also, now-a-days, we have some really nice tractors, but in the early years, we had to do it the Possum way also. We had an old unstyled JD "A" that was really tough looking. The engine had been overhauled, so it had lots of power, but everything else was held together with baling wire & hope. But we used it a lot.

Ok thanks. I noticed the splines on mine as well but i thought they were for a hand-crank starter. Thanks and yes, a vid would be appreciated on how it works an what to use it on

Mine has a splined shaft on the front of the engine. I'll make a short video to show where it is in a few days.
