    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Added some fresh amended soil to the raised beds. Working under the watchful eye of our tom turkey (Mr. Snoods).

    Let's talk shoes

    I've got these (below link). Had about a year and have been holding up good. Not light, definitely a work boot not a hiking boot. Brunt - The Mulder Welted

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I went with the 60" wide version, which is the narrowest Homestead offers. I'm impressed with the build quality. If we get another big snow this year I'll report back on how it went with this setup on the little B.

    B2601 adding rear remotes

    My set up with a Summit valve, plumbed after the third function as described by MntView. Valve body mounted to steel plate with plate mounted to ROPS through existing holes. Primary use is top and tilt. Has worked out great.

    Photo shoot anything lately? Random Photo Thread

    A few I kept while clearing off the memory card from shots taken this last summer with dad's old Nikon D90 base (digital) and old school lenses that mount to but don't interact with the camera (so all settings and focus are manual.) I enjoy having to figure it out but then getting the ease of...

    B2601 nose suitcase weights? What, where, and how much?

    I struggled finding anything Kubota. Ended up ordering three of the 70# JD weights and fabing up a bracket. Bracket doesn't have to come off for FEL and weights just slip on and off bracket (no bolting the weights).

    Flail mowers.

    I really like the B2601 for my situation. I thought I might outgrow a BX so went with the B. If you have room to store and maneuver I can't imagine you would be disappointed going up in size from the B.

    Flail mowers.

    I've got the the Betsco heavy duty 48" with forged hammers. Been a good cost effective option. Very basic machine but does what I need. If not already aware the spacing on the 3 pnt is not quick hitch compatible.

    Adding rear remotes with third function on B2601

    Ok what I was calling the case drain is where the tank line from the 3rd function was plumbed as received so I assumed it was a drain. Sounds like I need to find a proper drain location for the Summit tank drain line. Thanks Dan.

    Adding rear remotes with third function on B2601

    I checked routing again so let me clarify. Not saying this is optimal but it has worked. Also dealer told me Land Pride on the third function but I haven't verified. I start with this outlet on the tractor (the 90 deg tube fitting with hose exiting bottom of pic): In to the power port of the...

    Adding rear remotes with third function on B2601

    Yep I went manual valves for simplicity of install and for me better motion control of the cylinders. Also I did use the same return tank location as the third function (Land Pride), just added the tee you see here to bring in tank line from Summit valve body.

    Adding rear remotes with third function on B2601

    Here's my 3 remote setup with Summit valve plumbed as Dan described off the third function valve body (plus I added top and tilt cylinders). Any new lines I needed I got made locally. Super pleased with how this has been working.
