Great video that's definitely impressive if I had watched your video before I'd prolly bought a 2501 Instead of my Mahindra 1626 but it does a fine job. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun
I've ran forklifts and other hydraulic based machinery for 40 yrs. I have a tuned ear to the 'draw' or how much power is being drawn on the hydraulics and/or the rpm of the motor. To get a 1500 pound log/tree off the ground so I can safely cut without getting my saw pinched will be incredible. L2501 is what I'm saving for.
@@chasewebber4316 Went 'green'. 3032E. Working it hard, but it's been great, aside from the re-gen. If I upgrade to a bigger machine it'll definitely be a model before those.
Someone should forward this video to TTWT. Love my L2501, fantastic bang for the buck. I have a family member who owns a JD1025 and I honestly can say I like the L2501 better. I have size 14W feet and the treadle pedal on the Kubota guarantees that I can’t accidentally hit both pedals or the wrong one like I have on the JD.
I picked up 6 semi tires with clamp on forks which is roughly 900lbs half way is as far as it would lift. So, good to know even with the weight so fat out it was still close
I know this video is around 1 year old .... but firsr off ... isnt the bsllast weight sitting on the ground (its hard to tell but i didnt notice it move when the tractor moved from lifting n lowering. It has to be hanging in the air to do any good 🤔. Also (its hard to tell but) it seemed like the rpm's were only up a little, not necessarily at the highest rpm you wud run it for a heavy load/heavy work. Like it says in the begonning of the video " we have no idea what we are doing" i agree. Peformed .... performed .
i need a tractor capable of lifting 2500 lbs of soil bags+the heavy duty pallet using forks attached to the bucket i also want to be able to use my 4.5-4.75 foof diameter brine filled rear tyres my current one is 24 hp and 58 lb-ft of torque which is not enough
Yes, the back tires are fluid filled. Make sure yours are and that there is a counter ballast on the back. If it still won’t lift that amount, you probably need to get your hydraulic pressures checked at a shop.
@@kubotaoflynchburg Thank you, I had a box blade on ... the tractor seems under-powered and light to the point I can see where a novice operator could get into trouble pretty quickly. I can't say I think very much of regen cycles, with only 30 hour's on the little critter ... I'm still getting to know it's in's and outs. I just didn't need a big tractor anymore ... Thank you again for the reply.
My L2501 wouldn’t even come close to lifting that weight! Barely lift 1000# ….I bought a pallet full of tile in individual 30# boxes. Added them all up and weighed about 860# …wasn’t Impressed.
First, make sure you have good counterbalance on the back of the tractor. Second make sure your RPMS are all the way up! Third, try to get the load as close to the back of the pallet forks as possible, the further away from the tractor the harder it is to lift.
Why don’t you show us how hard it is to get a full bucket of dirt from a semi packed pile of sandy loam instead explaining the technical reasons? I have extremely disappointed along with many others on how much dirt Kubota allows us to pick up. My old Kubota 2003 33 hp would allow me at least drive into the same pile. I couldn’t always lift the bucket simply because the rear tires would be lifted but I could get a full bucket. Shame on Kubota!
You need a lot of rear weight on any brand to drive around w 1000 lbs that far foward. Physics. Not ability. My crappy jd 2025 r will carry almost anything around w backhoe on the back!
This is my next piece of equipment. I rented one to unload a dumpster into another dumpster. In the words of Kanye West. Wait till I get my money right. This tractor is a beast. Stay tuned 😎👍🤙☝️🤜🤛✅
