Thanks for all the tips and information of this tractor. I did buy one about 18 mouths ago and have now come to the point where I can comment on this unit with a wide variety of testing. The first thing that gave me any kind of problem came in the from of slow movements at different sloping angels. This was solved by just adding the hydraulic oil to the proper level. ( must have missed that at the dealer ) I have been an operator professionally for over 40 years . Backhoes being my most used tractor . I am quit impressed by how well this tractor does. I have now used it to , install septic systems , underground vaults , culvert driveway pipe , bush hog , pull a 3 bottom plow , post hole auger ( on the loader and made a quick connect coupler for the backhoe ) and drag a box scrapper doing driveways . I love the fact that I can move the tractor with the crawl feature . I live in the North Carolina mountains and do driveways for many customers in my area . This tractor is light weight only in pounds. I pull it around with a 250 supper duty like its not even there . Its now my favorite tractor EVER . PS I would like to see a factory cab
What is so appealing to me about the M62 is that you get a tractor approaching a full on commercial TLB with a 14ft backhoe while keeping the weight down low enough to have a combined tractor and trailer weight below 15,600 lbs. Here in Texas, go over that weight and you have to have a DOT licensed and inspected trailer which is very expensive. I can haul this thing with my 3/4 ton truck and my 24ft gooseneck trailer. My trailer weighs 4,000 lbs plus 9,500 of tractor. I'm only at 13,500 lbs. That gives me some wiggle room to haul extra implements. Also this thing has a removable backhoe with rear PTO. That means I can also run a bush hog, post hole digger, wood chipper and many other PTO powered implements. This would work for my farm. He's right. No other tractor like this exists. Just give me a cab, which I think is available now.
Great video Neil. I have a older L35 model and am thinking about upgrading to a M62. I have a small ranch and really need a little bigger tractor. I stopped in to a Kubota Dealer a few days ago to look a one and get some pricing. Over $80K with 4-in-1 front buchet, 3 quick change backhoe buchets, thumb, drawbar, top-n-tilt kit, rear remote valve kit, quick attach coupler and 3p linkage kit. Very nice tractor but not cheap. After taking a good look a the tractor, the deal killer for me was that 16 gauge piece of sheet metal that you were knelt down by th the video belind the loader post. The on with the NO Step sticker on it, the one that flexed when you put your arm against it. Behind that little piece of tin, is all the loader control cables, hydraulic hoses and the hydraulic valve body. If I used that M62 to do the same work that I do with my L35, a stick or stob would get stuffed into that little sheet metel guard and open it up like a can of sardines. That area is one of the most vulnerable locations on any tractor, one stump or stick will destroy the whole hydraulic control system. The parts department will love it, but I wont like the break down time or the cost. Kubota needs to do something about that before I will spend that kind of money on a new tractor.
I love this machine - it has allowed me to do a ton of things on my homestead that I couldn’t do otherwise. The backhoe comes off so that you can use other implements. I haven’t tried to remove it yet and I am wondering if you could do a video showing how to take it off and put it on. Thanks!
I “ka-no”, that this is not a “ka-new” video, but when I heard you introduce the “ka-new” Kubota M62, I “ka-new” I had to comment……. Love your videos Neil. I’ve watched them all….mostly. Stay safe!!!
Great review - I have an older B21 with several attachments I use for home and a small side business. Really like it, and might be tempted if a B26 came along, but overall the 21 does a good job. About the only thing I can whine about is lack of two pumps; I'm used to hoes and excavators with 3-function capability. But over time I've gotten to where I can combine functions a bit to simulate some of the efficiency of movement.
Thanks for doing a descriptive video as requested. Will be looking to trade in a few years to either this machine or the L47. If you get one of those in like your descriptive videos of your machines. Have an MX5100 with the BH92 and while it does almost anything I need to do that struggle over oil when swinging the boom drives me nuts. I should never be able to outwork a machine and with the BH single line supply it's easy to do. I'm your market as a owner of 100 acres mainly woods but a little tillage available and what it is for me is the ability to switch from a backhoe to a finishing box blade or tiller machine in less than 10 minutes is way to convenient. No need for a dozen when you can drop huge trees with such a little machine by taking them out at the roots. Last quote on M59 with backhoe was $52k from my dealer. Hope this machine did not move too far from that point as that will still be my market area when I'm ready to trade
That would be an interesting design to enclose the cab on an M62 that’s got a removable backhoe and a 3-pt. hitch. Not saying Kubota couldn’t do it, but....
From what I've read, Kubota is offering a cab on the M62TLB with removable glass. If I'm not mistaken they will be offered a little later this year. Even the pics on the Kubota website have the cab frames with the glass removed. It will have heat, but not A/C. I'm sure there will be an aftermarket A/C for this model as there is for the smaller TLBs.
+Good Try Correct. Its an add on cab. Those have been available from aftermarket companies for the TLB's for years. While they will keep the weather off you, the fit & finish is not nearly as good as what Kubota is capable of producing in a factory cab.
+Messick Farm Equipment Yes, that is what I've heard too. Do you know what brand cab is being used? Some of the aftermarket cabs are fairly nice, but others are not. Some people on a forum kept guessing at who was making the cab for it, but no-one knew for sure. Do you know the price of the add-on cab for the M62 TLB?
The option of a Factory cab on any of Kubotas tractors would be nice. I have had the same idea of making a extendable dipper stick for my BH 92, using my Hydraulic thumb pedal to extend or retract the dipper stick,with a electric over hydraulic switch so i can still use my hydraulic thumb as well. Future Plans ! I also wish Kubota would build their tractors with larger volume hydraulic pumps.
Can i have front pto kit installed on Kubota B26 TLB together with front loader ? Also can I use articulating bucket module and upgrade hydraulics for it on backhoe arm ?Thanks for posting .
Hey Neil, great vids...can you drop the loader (quick disconnect) on that beast, it doesn't look like it. I'm guessing with the extra built in strength, the quick disconnect would be the weak link?
Kubota makes really good equipment. We have a M9540 and it is flawless. Have yall sold any Kubota balers yet and do youhave any feedback on them if so? One last question, Are you one of the guys that went out to Onelonelyfarmers and helped with his baler? lol
+Georgia Swampman Yes. Neil who is in the video did go out to the Pandy farm. We have not sold any Kubota balers yet. Our impression has been largely positive, we've heard good things from other dealers. Being that the New Holland baler is manufactured about 30 minutes away from our store, our area tends to support New Holland.
+Messick Farm Equipment Our Local Kubota dealer doesn't carry the Kubota brand balers either, they carry Vermeer , and we just purchased one from them. Our local NH dealer is .......lets say about to fold up. Really wish we had a local NH dealer like Messicks.
Neil or anyone at Messick’s, I just bought the Kubota factory L1321 3-pt. hitch storage bracket kit from you guys (came in this week, thanks!) for me L47, but when I went to mount it, I found there are NO holes in the frame to bolt it to! Should I just take the rear wheel off and drill the six 11/16” holes I need right into the frame? Not sure what else to do but I don’t want to send this kit back to you! (Kinda need it, my 3-pt. links live in the dirt right now.)
You forgot to mention that the brake pedals on the M62 are on the left whereas they are on the right on the M59. Big improvement. Why didn't you mention all the bells and whistles in reference to the operating of the tractor? Also the PTO. I hope the M62 has the quick adjustment on the lower arms and not that lousy turnbuckle like on the M59.
Did I understand you to say in another video about the M62 that you can remove the backhoe but you have to add the three point hitch system each time to use rear implements? How much of a hassle is that? Have my first tractor MX5200 but wanting to go the M62 route for the backhoe. Thanks
bad news. Its a gray market tractor that was never sold in the USA. Its very likely close to a B7100, we could sell you a manual for that but there maybe some differences. www.messicks.com/wiki/kubota/b7100hstdoldlow

Your videos are excellent bro! Always enjoy how you lay out the facts and points.
I really like your videos. Even most that don’t pertain to my needs, I learn something or get an idea from.
From what I seen in this video the backhoe comes off and that's a good idea. Sure will look into this one.

Would a swivel seat be available on a B or L series TLB?
L47 can. The B26 or many of the add-on backhoes do swivel but are too small to stay in the seat while you turn.
