A friend died some years on Sunday afternoon, soon after attending church. I guess I better stop going to church! Applying the same logic that has been applied to Hank Aaron above...

Don't forget that the BX22OO has a plastic cooling fan for the transmission exposed underneath, and all it takes is one small stick to strip the blades off this fan, which is a cheap part but quite time consuming to replace. Good idea to protect it somehow. Either by making some type of skid...

I was thinking that for the purpose of leveling, if you would be fabricating something, putting the gauge wheels as far as practical behind the rake would be helpful. In my mind, having the gauge wheels behind the rake about the same distance as the tractor rear tires (axles) are in front of...

Looks like the OP is from Australia. Might be out on a walkabout... :)

Even with gauge wheels you still find the rake follows the undulations, but they do help somewhat. I ended up buying a factory set for the KingKutter stuff I have, and made mounts that I attached to my back blade so they would serve double duty. Still, I was not that impressed with them on my...

Smells of SCAM big time... Actual price was/is $77K. Check out the following link: https://www.milamequipmentsales.com/component/rdautos/detail/959-caterpillar-308e2-cr-w-plumbing-on-stick

Don't know, probably due to the added cost...for something most owners probably do not need. I see you are in Canada. In my state as far as I know the loader bucket (and backhoe bucket if there) must also be tied down to the trailer. Maybe someone can correct me if this is only for larger...

This is excellent advice that I certainly would follow. For two reason specifically: Mainly, because it documents how serious the situation is. Secondly, if ample oil should come out, you may feel more comfortable with whatever the final resolution turns out to be.

This is good advice and I also tried to do the same thing, but since the guy I bought the mini ex from was selling equipment he bought from companies in the area, when I checked for liens under his name nothing showed up. I guess I should have asked for the name of the company it came from, but...

I mow about 4 acres but never worried about a pretty lawn. Satisfied with a pretty enough lawn...actually, satisfied with something that looks like a lawn...a smooth green area that may actually be clover and short weeds! But it works for me...It is really no work except for some time spent on...

I totally agree. Got rid of my RFM after the first year for those reasons. BUT a RFM can do a great job if you are not cutting around things or close to a fence line...I was totally satisfied with the RFM cut quality, just not satisfied overall for the reasons bx tractorjoe stated... Edit...

Late comer here but can only say for Kubota tractors this site is the BEST! Without reservation! (y)

The following thread may offer some insight although the issue was a little different. The tractor is the same and the issue he was having related to the fuel solenoid... https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/b7800-no-start-issue.49287/

Shows what I know! 😀 I remembered reading the 3PH had priority, so imagined if it were activated everything downstream would only get partial flow until the 3PH lever was centered again. Because some flow was diverted to move the 3PH cylinder. In any case, if the 3PH control valve was not...

Actually Geohorn's solution is even better...no need to disassemble anything! (y)

I cut about 4 to 5 acres of "grass" on a BX with 60" deck. It is not a yard, but looks like one from a distance, maybe even if walking on it. The thing I like about the BX is it can be used for other things that a zero turn would not be able to do. Tractor type stuff. Even if the mower deck is...

I am not a sports fan but remember him. Actually when I saw that mentioned, I thought he had played for the Pittsburgh Pirates (I'm from Pittsburgh, guess wishful thinking)...

Just to clarify, you are saying that the lever does not move when you are trying to move it by pulling back and forth, right? Can you remove the linkage from the shaft that goes into the tractor housing and verify that the issue is not with the linkage itself, and indeed a problem within the...

I learn something new at least once per day. This time it was that colors of dust protectors are called out on the Kubota parts diagrams! Now if I can just remember this tomorrow... :LOL:

I agree, but prefer to use something softer than steel to hit the center plug with. I use a wooden dowel rod (or a piece of broom handle), or a block of wood if the fitting is a male type. Just do not want to risk scratching the plug. (A rachet handle with a rag over the end works for me too on...
