    According to this video, it should raise and lower with the 3pt.

    finishing mower

    Not sure what you mean by not being hydraulically controlled----does it not raise and lower with the 3 pt? In any case, rear finishing mowers (with rear discharge) are great (IMO) as long as you don't have any or only a few obstacles to mow around. Too many trees, out buildings, etc. for me to...

    BX2680 - 400 hr service questions

    I've had my BX2380 since 2017. I have no intention of replacing radiator hoses or fuel lines unless they break, which I doubt will happen. Wouldn't change them on a car or truck every four years. Ain't gonna do it on the tractor.

    Radiator Genie?

    Have had a radiator genie for several years. Rarely use the one for the hose, but use the compressed air one every single time I mow for the radiator, air filter, and blowing dust/debris out from around the mower spindles. I don't worry about psi when I use it. Turn on the compressor which is...

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    It's not every day that you see a turtle (yellow bellied slider) laying eggs in your backyard. She had to crawl through thick woods from the pond that's about 75-100 yards away. When she finished laying and had covered them up, she made her way straight back towards the pond.

    Necessary to Clean Mower Deck After Every Session?

    Your sandy soil will keep the underside of your deck clean. I've never cleaned the underside of my deck (7 years?), yet every year when I change blades there is nothing stuck or built up on the underside. I do blow off the topside with the leaf blower every time I mow and take the belt covers...

    Wingfoot2

    Air Force brat born in the early 50's. Saw military blimps all the time as a kid. Pretty much have to go to a NASCAR race to see one these days.

    Damn! I feel like a newby.

    I've taken the FEL off and put it back on several times on my 2380. It's a PITA to put back on compared to the 2370 I had. Wish Kubota had never changed the FEL mounting from what the 2370 had. Would've kept the 2370, but hated the digital dash because I could barely see it in bright sunlight...

    Infrared Thermometer

    On nearly every post/question about over heating, one of the many pieces of advice given is to check temperatures with an infrared thermometer, but I don't recall anyone recommending a brand, model, etc. I didn't need one for an overheating problem, but I wanted one to check the temperature on...

    Mower deck won’t lower

    It is also used to keep the deck up when using implements on the 3 pt.

    Schizo weather

    It's called spring, isn't it? Even down here in the south you don't know if you're going to be wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and flip flops or be bundled up from one day to the next in spring.

    DIY Tow Behind Blower

    Good idea. I do it a little differently. Don't remember if I got the idea for this from OTT or FB. Not smart enough to come up with it on my own.

    Sounds like you need a new switch to me.

    Using the drawbar to pull a trailer

    I wouldn't worry at all about pulling that with the 3 pt. It's not going to hurt it one iota.
