To disengage the hydraulic drives on a Kubota RC60-F19 mower deck, I usually follow these general steps (based on typical Kubota mid-mount mower setups):
-
Park Safely – Make sure the mower is on level ground. Set the parking brake and turn off the engine.
-
Relieve Hydraulic Pressure – Move the hydraulic lift lever back and forth a few times with the engine off to release residual pressure in the lines.
-
Locate the Quick Couplers – Underneath or near the deck, you'll find quick-connect hydraulic fittings. These connect the mower deck hydraulics to the tractor.
-
Disengage the Couplers – Pull back the locking sleeves on the couplers and gently disconnect them. Be ready for a small amount of fluid spillage.
-
Secure the Lines – Cap the open ends to prevent dirt from entering, and store the disconnected hoses safely.
Now, it's worth noting the RC60-F19 is typically driven mechanically via belt, not fully hydraulic. So make sure you're referring to the correct attachment. If you're actually referring to front hydraulic implements or rear PTO attachments, the steps may differ here ✌🏻
