    B6000E throttle control, Advise / Help

    Hi Wolfman, thank you for your advise, the throttle is now great and works correctly, so much so that I have managed to get my brother to use the throttle to stop the engine rather than pulling on the decompression lever. We used it all day yesterday clearing the back paddock and it made such a...

    Stopping a ZL600 engine on a B6000

    Well there you go, me showing my lack of knowledge. I had assumed that when I pulled the lever on the MF it was a decompression release just like the B6000 but it sounds as if you are going to correct me. So to get back to my original question, before we get off topic, why not use the...

    Stopping a ZL600 engine on a B6000

    Hi, can anyone tell me why Kubota say not to use the decompression lever to stop the engine, where a lot of other tractors only have the decompression lever to stop them, Massey Ferguson 135 a case in point? The signage on the Kubota says it should only be used when the battery is low on charge...

    I think the extra sprocket is to run a hydraulic drive that then runs a brush sweeper on the side, though thinking about it why wouldn't one just run it off the tractor hydraulics. Take a look at the Amenity sweeper on this website file:///C:/Users/berna/Downloads/5011-2.pdf It is from 2017...

    B6000E throttle control, Advise / Help

    Hi, the throttle on the B6000E is very loose and when using the belly mower, which it is recommended the tractor should be on full throttle, I have to tie the throttle lever down with a bungee cord. I have explored the forum and looked through the Kubotabooks owners and service manuals but...

    Fitted Suton Poo Picker / sweeper and cut PTO to fit B6000, All good till chain broke, PICTURES ATTACHED

    Road apples reminds me of a story my mother, now 95 tells, about her father in the 1930's - 40's rushing out into the street when the horses of the carriages they were pulling would defecate, opps sorry shit in the street. Apparently there was quite a rush of the neighbourhood to collect it for...

    Fitted Suton Poo Picker / sweeper and cut PTO to fit B6000, All good till chain broke, PICTURES ATTACHED

    I stripped the POO Picker down this morning and found only one cog on the other end. Apparently there was another device that can be run off the other cog at the top. I went to the manufacturer and had a discussion with them and bought three more links, just incase. Thanks for all your input...

    It is actually called an Amenity sweeper but as we use it regularly to collect the Horse shit off the paddocks poo picker was easier and it describes exactly what it does, picks up the poo. Sorry you don't admire our euphemisms, horse shit collector just doesn't flow.

    Hi, today I connected up the Suton Poo picker / sweeper and then cut the new 1200mm PTO down to 520mm, it was the only one they sold at the dealers. After an hours use behind my B6000 the chain on the sweeper broke and the engine stalled after the PTO jammed. I Stripped the sweeper and found one...
