I have a deutz powered 7015 and was thinking on upgrading to the kubota powerd ones. Is there a power difference between the two and is the kubota less maintenance

Why not the 74hp Kohler diesel?
Seems to me, cuz i've been talking with salesman across the board on stumpers that the kohler diesels are actually lombardini's. Kohler bought them out a while back. Also if you can find a carlton with the kubota your in luck...the newer tier 4 diesels are now going to be the kohler type motors.
Id take the "extra maintenance" over an air cooled diesel any day.
Have also heard that the new kubotas have more torque and are quieter...they actually have a "muffler"... $64000 in chicago area, $74000 in northern ohio, both on wheels...same identical machine... Local dealer in ohio is price gouging.

Kohler did buy Lombardini... Is that a problem?
The engine in the 760i Avant is a Kohler as well.

The deutz engines are oil cooled, not air cooled.

Have you had good success with that unit so far @Lumberjack
I’m curious if the kohler diesel is reliable and
Problem “free” so to speak
