Before you call, email, or stop by for parts, do yourself a favor and track down your model and serial number first. It sounds like a small thing, but it's the difference between getting the right part on the first try and making a second trip.
Here's why it matters: between Kubota, Exmark, Echo, Stihl, and everything else we carry, there's a lot of equipment out there. Two machines that look nearly identical can take completely different parts depending on the model year or configuration. Parts from a super duty tend not to fit on a Fiesta, and the same idea applies here. Close enough doesn't cut it when you're ordering parts.
Mowers: Look under the seat, on the frame near the rear axle, or on a plate near your feet.
Utility vehicles (like the RTV series): Check the frame rail, typically behind the driver's side seat.
Chainsaws, trimmers, and handheld equipment: Usually stamped into the housing near the engine or on a label near the base of the unit.
If you're not sure where to look on your specific machine, a quick photo of the area you think might have it and a call to your local Wolf Kubota location will get you pointed in the right direction fast.
Write it down, snap a photo, or store it in your phone's notes app. Somewhere you can pull it up quickly. When you call or stop in for parts or service, having your model and serial number ready means we can skip the guesswork and get you the right part the first time.

Tractors: Check the frame near the front axle, or on a plate located on either side of the tractor body, often under the hood. The serial number is usually stamped directly into the metal, not just printed on a sticker. Please see the video below for locations on Kubota compact and sub-compact tractors with loaders.
Where to Look
What to Do With It Once You Have It
A Few Tips
Serial numbers can fade or get covered in grime over the years. A quick wipe down of the plate or stamped area helps.
If your equipment has ever had a part replaced that included a new ID plate, double check you're reading the plate for the machine itself, not an attachment.
Keep this info somewhere handy. A glovebox, phone, filing cabinet so it's not a scramble every time you need it.
