I’m sure they don’t do that for everyone but when a gorgeous woman with a very sexy accent asks you to show her how to Operate equipment you Damn skippy take as much time answering every single one of her questions. Plus if you’re on the clock it makes for an awesome day.
I know hiw to run tractors, but I watched the video. The salesman was awesone in his technique. Explaining, easing the customer into the drivers seat, then more and more customer work on the machine in the lot. Great. The woman doing the video was great too, asking questions and politly listening, then doing what fellow said. This will be a grwat channel.
This video is simply amazing. I am terrified of when I get delivered my used tractor in the coming days and this helped me immensely since I’ve never ever used one before. Thanks for the upload!
Can't believe I watched the whole video. Thank you very much for this tutorial video because I bought a second hand L3901 with 73 hours and no manual. Again, thank you
Haha! As much as possible we're trying to ensure that both of us know how to operate all the tools and equipment, and generally be able to do as many tasks as possible. We've already found this really useful - not only can we get things done faster, but it means we can switch tasks when we need a break.
Awesome, job on the video and adding the time stamps. Excellent idea. I hope my salesperson is that knowledgeable and willing to share as much as yours did. Thank you. 😊
It's 2023 and I've owned my L3800 since 2013 and I have to thank you for this video as I leaned a few things I was never told or never found out about it. The seat adjustment for the springs was a big one, I never knew. I did just go out and adjust mine to where it's super comfortable now. Most of the rest I figured out on my own through use, but anything I might not have known helps. That's a nice way to receive a new machine, very thorough. My salesman met us in the parking lot, and said good luck. I and my wife loaded it on the trail and carted it home. Delivery? There was no mention of any type of delivery, so we borrowed an equipment trailer, bindered it down and off we went.
The knob between your legs Crank it wide open... You can adjust the speed by using your 3-point lever.. why people feel the need just to slam the lever forward as fast as they can as beyond me.. and use your four-wheel drive as much as possible unless you're on blacktop road.. it will help with skidding trees and loader work.. only use the differential lock if you're losing traction in 4-wheel drive.... And when engaging the PTO let the clutch out slow with tractor idling
Very interesting video, very useful to me. Thank you to the competent salesman who took the time to teach all that. The lady was very comic too. At the beginning, she would listen quietly, just now an then answering ehemm ... ok ... ehemm ... ok ... and I really wondered if she understood anything at all, or maybe just 25%, or 50%, or 80% of what the guy was explaining, but in the end, I think she understood most of the stuff, but maybe won't remember everything, so viewing again this video will be a great help to her. As regards me, I really appreciated since I recently bought a very similar tractor, Kioti CK4010, so most of the man's explanations are well adapted for my new tractor too. And actually what this salesman does here, is what MY salesman DID NOT do when I got my brand new tractor, although he was a very competent and nice person, he was simply too busy on that particular day.
Excellent video. We’re taking delivery of our first tractor today. I’m a little OCD on fluid checking, so waiting until 50 hours is not an option for me…😎👍
As for lifting the boom to check the engine, there are safety jacks you can get that’ll prop up the bucket boom so you can work on the motor. If you take your tractor in for maintenance it’s highly likely service personnel will have those safety jacks.
Very exciting! I'm a city boy, so I really enjoyed watching and learning about operating a tractor. If it was me, I would get a canopy for shade and to prevent heavy branches from falling on my head. Have fun!
Thanks Neil - glad you enjoyed it! So much of this is brand new to us but we're having a lot of fun learning. We went back and forth on a cab and decided in the end to go without. It adds a substantial amount to the price of the tractor, and while the extra comfort would be nice (protection from the elements while snow plowing in winter, and AC in summer), we decided we just couldn't justify it. There are also lighter-weight canopies that mount to the ROPS (the gray roll bar at the back) that would provide shade although I doubt they'd offer much protection from falling branches. We'll see how we get on without one, but we can always add one on later if we want.
Run the tractor at least 21 2200 RPM it will go into regen less often... And you will get the max out of your loader... Anything more you are not gaining with the loader... PTO work bring it up to the yellow mark on your tack
How are you liking your L3901? I have one and have had it since 2018. I have 185 hours on mine. Only complaints are I don't think the loader lift capacity is that great. The oil dipstick is difficult to get to. The PTO switch is not great. If you use a grapple like I do, I wish the front brush guard had a metal cage on it, I've had sticks run through the front grill messing up a battery. I added an extra valve for a grapple on the front. It has been handy for brush piles.
Our L3901 is now about 10 months old and has around 160 hours on it - over half of which we've put on in the last 2 months since we've been back in Vermont! So far, it's far exceeded our expectations. Before we bought the tractor, we wrote up a list of all the things we thought we'd use it for, but in reality it's come in useful for many more things. I think overall my comments would be very similar to yours. The loader lift capacity is definitely an issue. We debated for a while between this tractor and the L4701 which would have given us more lift capacity. We've definitely struggled for lift capacity and have maxed out the loader more than a few times, but we've always found a way to work around it. Based on some loads we've lifted where we know the exact weight (e.g. shipping crates), we've managed to lift 1,100-1,200lbs, which is right what the loader is specced to do. The oil dipstick drives me constantly crazy. It's almost impossible to remove with gloves on, and especially when it's really cold outside. That seems like it would be an easy one for Kubota to improve, and must be a common complaint. It's more of a nuisance than anything else though. With regards to the PTO switch being "not great", I'm assuming you're referring to it slipping out occasionally? This has happened to us a few times and I had just assumed it was our tractor, so it's interesting to hear you're seeing a similar thing. We did have the extra front valve anticipating a grapple, but ended up cancelling our grapple order because it was taking too long. It would be nice to have, but we're managing to get by with the forks which, given the price of the grapples, seems like a decent trade-off! However, the third function hydraulic valve on the front could be useful if we get a snow plow (which we're considering for next winter). It's funny you mention about the brush guard - our dealer even warned us about that before buying the tractor so it's something we've always tried to be mindful of. I keep meaning to search for an aftermarket grill we could add for some extra protection! So overall, we really like the tractor. It's not without its faults, but we'd be lost without it.
@@AdventurousWay Thanks for the response, I ended up buying a John Deere 320E skid steer to supplement the tractor. It is fantastic even though it is a wheeled machine. The tracked models cost too much. I rent excavators from time to time, they are very handy. The skid steer can life 3 times as much so now I am good. We live on 20 acres.
The John Deere 320E is definitely a big step up in lifter capability! Out of curiosity, what are the types of things you find yourself needing the 320E to lift that the tractor can't? For us at the moment it's generally heavy logs, and hopefully that'll be less of an issue when the big site clearing work is done.
@@AdventurousWay Firstly, if I had to do it over again I probably would have only purchased a skid steer. For my land it makes sense, I don't have large fields to mow, mostly woods. We have large rocks to move around and I have put down over 1500 tons of gravel with both the skid steer and the tractor. The skid steer wins every time. I have used the skid steer to move building materials as well. Our hickory flooring came in 5 2000 lb pallets. The tractor would not handle that. I also use the skid steer to dig and level, it's much faster.
My grapple is the best money I have spent. Much much more utility than pallet forks. I’ve used both. I recommend anyone who cuts down trees or brush to get a grapple. I have the Wicked 55 grapple from Everything Attachments. Waited 5 months to get it but we’ll worth the wait. Made of hardox so about half weight of cheaper made in China grapples…lighter grapple saves lift capability which I agree could be better. Sometimes wish I’d got the L4701 instead of L3901 except when negotiating tight spaces in the woods. Also put a brush guard on mine…too risky for me to operate a grapple without a good brush guard.
You're going to enjoy a tool like that. Please be careful dragging logs. When I was a kid, mom's cousin, dragging tree stumps roots first, roots caught up, log stood up and fell on him. Take Care
Where ear plugs to have hearing later in life. Really rather important and no one seems to say it. The noise will give you a head pain after an hour and your really not going to hear much else over the engine noise.
Lots to learn with that machine. I'm sure it all becomes second nature after some hours of use. Having said that, I'm still lost from the up and down bouncy bouncy video.
Brake.... Being that they're on the wrong side kind of useless to steer with them... Now the new model L series put the brake pedals on the right side and eliminated the clutch
Just bought a brand new LX 4020 to move snow in mountain resort. Dealership put howes diesel treatment in it and sold me a bottle to treat diesel because the temp is around 0 degrees F at 10000 feet elevation. I have 17.2 hours on the tractor and the thing won’t start. I tried for 3 days finally put 911 in fuel filter and added a little to the tank as per specs. still won’t start. had to tow it through 4 feet of snow 150 yards as the kubota dealership in my area wanted to charge me 8 hours of labor just to drive out to and from my location because i didn’t buy it from them. took it to a kubota dealership in a different state but only 1.5 hours from me. They told me the DPF is completely clogged due to the fuel. SOOO no warranty and no insurance coverage. $12000.00 to fix. the tractor was only $39000.00 WTF! Kubota service and insurance and Sales all suck. They blame it on the other dealerships, no one is taking responsibility for taking care of tractor. Read your manual and warranty and insurance form. If it is fuel related. NO COVERAGE. DONT BUY Kubota! LIARS and Fraudsters. Does anyone have any insight or help here ? Just lost over $20000 on contracts for snow removal. and looks like i wont be getting this tractor back for at least 3 to 4 weeks, even if i pay the extortion money to fix it. and then im sure it will just gel up again and and wont start and will have to go through this all again in another 17 hours. only about 15 total gallons of fuel have gone through this engine 8 of which was put in by the dealer and i only put 12 oz. of howes in the 10 gallons of ulsd i bought from costco. teir one diesel.
4WD is just one front wheel and one rear wheel? WTF… I don’t know what that salesman was taught but when my Kubota is in 4WD all 4 wheels are pulling. If I’m pulling something out of the ground using the draw bar there is a good chance that all 4 wheels will slip.
@@AdventurousWay No, I just went back and checked he actually says 4wd is 1 back tire and 1 front… limited slip…? 4wd and limited slip are two different things. I think he just doesn’t understand how 4wd works. Or doesn’t understand how to explain open differentials.
This is the worst Dealership video I’ve ever seen , first thing never ever try starting your tractor if you’re not sitting in operators seat period!!! Your showing her how the quick attach works and maintenance points and she literally has only operated a tractor a couple weeks ago and you showed her to start tractor standing from the side of tractor never never never do this!!! My father got ran over starting a tractor while not in operators seat

Very useful video
Yes some great info. Best I've seen.
I’d buy a tractor from that dude in a heartbeat
Wish they had more dealers like that, that will take the time like this,very good job
Totally agree - he was amazing and offers that for every single customer. As newbie tractor owners, it was incredibly valuable.
I’m sure they don’t do that for everyone but when a gorgeous woman with a very sexy accent asks you to show her how to
Operate equipment you
Damn skippy take as much time answering every single one of her questions.
Plus if you’re on the clock it makes for an awesome day.
Excellent video for all that use tractors. No one knows everything. This salesman sure has learned his trade.

This video is simply amazing. I am terrified of when I get delivered my used tractor in the coming days and this helped me immensely since I’ve never ever used one before. Thanks for the upload!
Take it slow, get used to the machine, and it'll feel natural in no time!
@@AdventurousWay Thank you. I got it a few days ago and I can say your video helped me a lot! I am sure it will help new tractor owners immensely.
much needed video for me. my dealer did not run through the tractor with me.
Can't believe I watched the whole video. Thank you very much for this tutorial video because I bought a second hand L3901 with 73 hours and no manual. Again, thank you
The best explanation I've seen
Nicely done Matt ... we all know who will be driving the tractor around now ... good thinking on your part ... lol ... OK now you two get back to work
Haha! As much as possible we're trying to ensure that both of us know how to operate all the tools and equipment, and generally be able to do as many tasks as possible. We've already found this really useful - not only can we get things done faster, but it means we can switch tasks when we need a break.
@@AdventurousWay you two are on a good path so keep goin forward ... winter will be here before ya know it ... be careful and take care of each other

Thank you Liz! We learned a lot from the orientation so I hope other new tractor owners find it useful too.
Kubota is an excellent choice. You will not be disappointed. Many thanks to you AND your sales person for videoing this... lot of good advise.
Thanks Erik! We've only had the tractor for a couple of weeks now but we're loving it so far!
Wow , I watched every minute of this video. I am going to save this cause that instructor was awesome. Thanks for all the information.
Excellent orientation.
Excellent! Thank you.
Essex Equipment is great,
I wouldn't say I'm smarter than that salesman. But most definitely more common sense.. WOW

Thank you!
You're going to enjoy a tool like that. Please be careful dragging logs. When I was a kid, mom's cousin, dragging tree stumps roots first, roots caught up, log stood up and fell on him. Take Care
Ouch, that sounds very painful!
Great video. Who is that guy? I learned so much I did not know even after using an MX5100 for 10 years.
That's Chris, the dealer we bought our tractor from. He was really great to work with!
Lots of fun work to be had. Enjoy your new toy. Cover the seat could get hot.
Thanks! We are definitely enjoying it already!
Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Great tutorial but what the heck's going on with the recessed can lights at the 58 minute mark. Lol
Where ear plugs to have hearing later in life. Really rather important and no one seems to say it. The noise will give you a head pain after an hour and your really not going to hear much else over the engine noise.

If it is fuel related. NO COVERAGE. DONT BUY Kubota! LIARS and Fraudsters. Does anyone have any insight or help here ? Just lost over $20000 on contracts for snow removal. and looks like i wont be getting this tractor back for at least 3 to 4 weeks, even if i pay the extortion money to fix it. and then im sure it will just gel up again and and wont start and will have to go through this all again in another 17 hours. only about 15 total gallons of fuel have gone through this engine 8 of which was put in by the dealer and i only put 12 oz. of howes in the 10 gallons of ulsd i bought from costco. teir one diesel.
I’m sorry that’s happened to you. But I don’t think this video is going to help you.
Do not need to lift the tractor off the ground to pull the pins out for the loader...
4WD is just one front wheel and one rear wheel? WTF…
I don’t know what that salesman was taught but when my Kubota is in 4WD all 4 wheels are pulling. If I’m pulling something out of the ground using the draw bar there is a good chance that all 4 wheels will slip.
I think he was referring to the locking diff.
@@AdventurousWay No, I just went back and checked he actually says 4wd is 1 back tire and 1 front… limited slip…? 4wd and limited slip are two different things.
I think he just doesn’t understand how 4wd works. Or doesn’t understand how to explain open differentials.
Every 50 hours? Checking your fluids? Wrong.... Check them every time you go to run it... Dealers and sales guys crack me up... No nothing...
When you sed that you can wuss one tien to Speer balls I was like no you don't you wuss two

This is the worst Dealership video I’ve ever seen , first thing never ever try starting your tractor if you’re not sitting in operators seat period!!! Your showing her how the quick attach works and maintenance points and she literally has only operated a tractor a couple weeks ago and you showed her to start tractor standing from the side of tractor never never never do this!!! My father got ran over starting a tractor while not in operators seat
It's much safer to be on the tractor when starting it.
