Kubota L1500 numbers of problem repaired.

I have purchased this toy little over 3 years ago from local.
It had numbers of problem and was challenging to repair.
Orange tractor talk members helped me lot for advising how to fix.
Specially, Member of "North Idaho wolfman", "Billrigby".
It was so much fun to repair one and other.
Now, the tractor runs like champion,,,, no more problem since repaired 3 years ago.

My 3 point hitch leaks down where should I start. Does this require the tractor to split for repair?

[@jkk040]

No need to split the tractor.
Just remove the seat and assembly cylinder cover .
You need O ring that I bought from the ACE hardware store which is 2 1/8" ID 2 3/8" OD 1/8" thick.
It is the perfect size and installed in 20 minutes. My 3 points stayed on.

Hi John, mine is poping out of reverse but with slight pressure on the stick it won`t, do you have to split the tractor to put in reverse ?

[@jkk040]

Hi, Larry.
No need to split the tractor for replacing the reverse gear.
But I had to split it later due to the main shaft seal failed caused leaking fluid..
Thank you for watching.

where did you find the parts? I have things I need to fix on mine too. Thanks

[@jkk040]

Your L1500 tractor is a gray market that the dear can't help you.
So, you should tell the dealer for L175 parts numbers when you need them for L1500.
Most L175 parts are interchangeable with the L1500.

@@jkk040 ok. I appreciate it. Thanks

[@amcf2000c]

I need help with my l1501 will my kubota dealer know anything about it?

[@jkk040]

No....
The compatible model in the USA is L175 for L1501.
So you should tell the dealer for L175 parts if you need them.
Your L1501 tractor is a gray market that the dear can't help you.
Also, I suggest visiting Orangetractortalks dot com for further assistance.
There are many savvy for your tractor.
Thank you for watching my video.

@@jkk040 ok
What do you mean by gray market? And would they know what engine oil

[@jkk040]

​@@amcf2000c The "gray market" tractors were not designed for sale in the United States. They were designed and manufactured for the Japan market and imported into the United States by individuals or entities independent of Kubota and without Kubota's authorization.
The engine oil for your tractor should be 15W-40 Diesel Engine Oil.
