    Hydraulic Hose Connections

    See these jaws for an Irwin clamp (which you have to buy also). https://www.amazon.com/QC-Mate-XBoom-Coupler-Duo-Jaw-1234-DJ/dp/B09WKXZV79 There is some company that sells them already converted but I don’t know how to find them. The clamp is this kind of thing...

    BX25D PTO

    Since I don’t know much about the newer tractor’s and the safety controls please elaborate a bit more on the (two) tilt seat forward statements. Does the seat have a tilt forward hinge at the front that has no lever to use so you can get off and tilt seat up to keep it dry/clean/cool and then...

    Independent rear brakes

    Maybe you need to add a hand control lever on the HST pedal to be able to use the turning brakes!

    Sickle bar hedge trimmer - hydraulic flow seems problematic

    If you can show us the way the hydraulics are routed to the rear that might get better help. @TheOldHokie may have some suggestions.

    M4950 Hard Start S2200 engine

    I am not sure you need a new glow plug indicator or not but you may be able to get one from NGK? The OEM part on my L185 was in a NGK box when I bought a new one. The indicator part of it only indicates when it is pretty dim light. It simply is a glowing resistor wire that gets a coating on...

    Anybody having problems with Messicks web site, being blocked by Cloudflare?

    @Hugo Habicht I use Duck Duck Go since it supposedly does little tracking. It has other problems like it doesn’t have any history of where you have gone so you can’t just go back to some site if you want and the auto type doesn’t work well if you backspace while typing. But then again I may...

    Independent rear brakes

    Just remember that if you don’t have the pedals locked together the brakes are going to steer the tractor even if you don’t want them to! On the highway or any road that bar to lock them together should be used to lock them together! There is a thread here where the tractor ended up in the...

    BX25D PTO

    I have no experience with your tractor but recall that the seat and rear PTO both have some switches. So I recall reading that there are a few ways Kubota has taken care of the safety concerns of using the rear PTO when out of the seat. 1) Some tractors simply have a switch to activate to get...

    Can you lend me 35 cents for a hamburger today, and I will gladly pay back on Tuesday????

    @jimh406 and @Hugo Habicht See this thread from @Scm that shows the problem. I assume he has decided to bore a cylindrical hole in the tractor and shrink in this cylindrical OD bushing to replace the current bad taper connection.

    To bring up the conspiracy theories about Huawei…(if my memory holds) They were trying to put in a phone network in the USA. That was blocked by the US government due to concerns over spying and data collection on the service. Therefore, I would assume that there is some type of embedded...

    OK what am I missing

    Not knowing exactly how it attaches to the tractor but assuming it has some type of hanger on the front… Look at that side of the hanger and see if the deck is attached properly. Highlight in yellow and red. I put a question mark on something else that could be wonky but I have no idea what...

    First when you reply to a post, please type your message below the last time you see QUOTE in some brackets or your post is hard to see and then when I reply there is no text (As shown above). Here is how it would look if done correctly. Not a big deal, I just want you to know and the answer...

    Bx2200 starting issue

    You have the facts correct. Test why it is not holding in place. I believe there are two coils involved- a pull in coil and a hold coil. The hold coil should hold it in place after the pull in coil gets it there. See if and how voltage is being supplied to the solenoid depending on the key...
