    2019 Volvo L25H emissions

    Kubota SVL75 backup alarm

    The backup alarm has started sounding constantly as soon as the key is put in the run position. Any ideas? I have pulled the fuse for now, but don't like not having that safety feature.

    Kubota SSV75 Vibration through hand controls?

    I purchased a 2017 Kubota ssv75 with 1000 hours. When operating the unit, I feel a chatter through the hand controls when moving forward or backward. Its not horrible but it is noticeable. The new units are smooth and chatter free. Any thoughts? Thank you.
