6 Year Review Of My Kubota Discbine I purchased this mower brand new 6 years ago. In this video I discuss the good and bad that I have found with my Kubota DMC 8028T.
I have noticed in your videos it looks like it does a nice job cutting. My caseih pretty much has the same covers around the u joints . I hate them. Personally I think flails or tines are the way to go on a discbine. My mower has flails. I have noticed my friend with rollers usually ted hay twice to my once to get it dry. I have cut some clover with mine and I have it set for the most agresve setting and the clover doesn't lose it lives. Thanks for the review.
Right now I have a buddy making my hay because me and my dad were into business together. Many fights lead to separating. Now all I have is my tractor. We had 2 new holland 1411’s. Like you, I absolutely hated them. Worst mowers ever. I swear I have some kind of screwed up PTSD from those mowers lol. Now I’m trying to get a nice mower and baler. Mowers scare the hell out of me because they can be so problematic as we all know. Believe I’m better off buying brand new. We’ll just have to see
Had good luck with our Kubota mower so far. Wasn't my first choice, but I do like like triple blades. Still says Kverneland on the ID plate I assume they are going to keep that since Kverneland seems to be still operating as it's own company even under Kubota ownership.
Glad it's been working well for you. That's interesting that the Kverneland name is still on the serial plate- I thought it would have changed. Thanks for stopping by!
Wow Mr Chris, that is one nice mower to be 6 years old and mowing over 2000 acres in it's lifetime!! Your attention to detail, and maintenance is amazing!! That one look almost like that krone that Mr Humble Haymaker has, that tine/flail conditioner is very intriguing to me😁 Those grease points it seems some engineers need to be in the field for a few years first 😡 I love the first clips of the hay coming out after being cut!! I see why it cuts very fine with the extra blades !! There are a few things I agree with one that are "wonky" for lack of better words, the swinging front cover for one 😳 Thank you sir for doing the review, been waiting on this one for sure!! Amazing piece of machinery!! Hope you and the family have a great Christmas!!! 😁😁😁🎄🎄🎄🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍
I try my best to maintain things so they not only last, but maintain a good resale value. It does have some similarities to the Krone for sure. Glad you enjoyed the video- I appreciate you watching 🙂 Merry Christmas to you as well, though I am sure I will talk to you again before then 😀
Thanks for the the review. I will be looking for a cutter, and it's nice to know what you like and dislike. Thanks for your review. Have a Merry Christmas Sir.
Overall, I've really enjoyed owning it. No, it doesn't have the quick change knives. I am not sure if that option might be available on the newer models or not. Thanks for watching 🙂
Dude 6 years old? It looks brand new. Nice job!
Seems like you got it last year...
I know we've already talked about that, time flies!!
I can't believe it's been 6 years already... Thanks Ed!
Wow, eight turtles with three blades, I can see why it does a nice job in fine hay. Good review.
Yes sir- the cleanest cutting mower I have ever owned. Thank you 🙂
Video good beautiful my friend 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙂

Definitely the best cutting mower I have owned. I like the tines too- they do a great job 👍 Thanks for stopping by 🙂

I have the same tractor and yes you have telescoping arms. The rings that you can see...pull up on them and pull out your arms.
I thought they were- mine must just be stuck from not using them for so long. Thanks 🙂

Excellent review on that machine bud! I'm glad it's been a good one for ya. I sure love my Kubota tedder.
Thank you! Hope everything is going well out your way. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Nice machine - very similar to my Krone. Looks brand new too...👍
Definitely seems like some similarities between the two. I try to keep things clean- as time allows. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Very nice review Chris, it still looks brand new
Thank you Jan! I try to work hard and keep my expensive equipment in great condition 🙂
Thanks for the the review. I will be looking for a cutter, and it's nice to know what you like and dislike. Thanks for your review. Have a Merry Christmas Sir.
I just bought a 2024 DMC8032T and the tag is the same.
Any videos on the kubota rotary rake?
Great video. Thanks
So the cutter bar is driven the entire length by the end turtles.. What type of shear protection on the turtles?
I'm honestly not sure. I've never had an issue to find out. I will have to look into that because now I am curious. Thanks!
Looks like a nice mower. Does it have the quick change knives?
Overall, I've really enjoyed owning it. No, it doesn't have the quick change knives. I am not sure if that option might be available on the newer models or not. Thanks for watching 🙂
