    B2601 Treadle Pedal hard to use

    I have a B2601 as well and the treadle peddle is night and day from the BX2380 I traded in for it. Your hopes of loosening up over time probably won't occur. I have 118 hours on my tractor now and it is still the same. I'm used to it now though. Great tractor for me except for that one small...

    Bx Weight box

    I have a Kubota ballast box and thought it was a PITA on my 2380. It served basically only one function, and wasn't easily quick hitch compatible, I'd fill it with dirt, rocks, sand, or similar then it was a pain to empty. I recently switched to Heavy Hitch with eight forty pound suitcase...

    EA Grapple or Green Machine

    Thank you, that is exactly what I'm thinking. I'm really liking the Artillian because I have a boulder project coming up making a retaining wall. The single grapple would be perfect for this. My hesitation with it though is the weight. In a full configuration like I'd buy (Grapple, Rake...

    EA Grapple or Green Machine

    I am in the same situation and trying to decide on the grapple that is right for me. I feel I am being driven though more by the capabilities of my tractor as compared to what I really want or cost. I have it narrowed down to the EA and the Artillian. For me having a baby tractor (BX2380 with...

    Mower and 3PH counterweight won't stay up.

    Is it a ballast box on the 3PH? If so just put the pins in the fixed position holes. At least that is what I do with my counter weight. Also If you play with the dial it shouldn't lower, mine isn't closed but is fairly close to it. That lets my implements lower nice and controlled and they...

    Smaller 3 point spreader for sand, maybe salt? Other recommendation?

    Not sure what you consider small. I have a Land Pride FSP500 that works great at spreading sand on my driveway. I haven't used it for salt or fertilizer as of yet but I'm sure it would work great for that. It uses the PTO to run it. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    60 inch belly mower concern

    I have a 60" driveover deck on my 2380 and it doesn't do anything like what you are describing. Only time I've ever smelled a burnt belt is right before I had one snap on a Cubcadet I had a decade ago. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

    MK Martin Select SEL54 Snowblower

    Thank you for the reply and good feedback. I did see it doesn't have a replaceable cutting edge. I think I could get something fabricated if I ever needed to. I do have a paved driveway and I'd like to get down to it but I also don't want to mark it all up, so maybe raising it a bit is the...

    MK Martin Select SEL54 Snowblower

    Hello long time lurker and finally became a Kubota Subcompact Tractor owner in August (BX2380). I am hoping someone can provide some feedback on a MK Martin Select SEL54 3 point snowblower. I found what I believe to be a great deal on a new one that a local dealer has had for two years...
