Kubota L3800 – Craigslist
Many people like using craigslist, for two main reasons.
Firstly people tend to trust it, and secondly because it can be used by simply on a geographical basis to locate and by a Kubota L3800.
There is often a huge advantage in terms of locality when buying a second-hand tractor, in that it makes it much more possible to physically view it and check out its history and if I was buying one a long distance away.
The only downside to this is that it obviously limits the number of tractors available, and limits the choice available from which to buy. The other important thing to realise if buying online, especially from out-of-state, is the shipping cost of the tractor, and who is going to pay it.

Owners manual
Finding an owners manual for a Kubota L3800 is a relatively important thing to be able to do.
If you are lucky, then the person you are purchasing from may still have the original, if not it is usually not that difficult to obtain one online, although it may require a bit of research and digging.
The advantage of a manual is twofold. Firstly it gives a lot of vital information about the servicing and maintenance of a tractor, and also gives extensive diagrams of how and where parts need to be fitted or maintained.
If unable for any reason to obtain a manual, then specific advice and possibly parts of a manual may be obtained from one of the many discussion groups available online, such as tractor by net or orange tractors.com.
