    New BX2380 bucket meets ground unevenly....

    It is under warranty, so why are you dealing with this? That is the reason that you bought a new tractor. As someone already suggested, have the dealer put your loader onto another tractor and see if it is your tractor or the loader. If it is the loader, then ask him to swap it for a new one...

    no work lights

    Picture of my switches and the circuit breakers underneath, the little white dots. The first one on the right is for the wiper motor, and then the next one to the left is the Kubota front LED lights. I added the next 3, one for the rear light, a spare, and the last one for the 3rd function...

    I have a b2601 tractor with a bx5455hd snowblower front attachment

    The new cylinder is $374.49 and the seal kit part # 70001-00872 is $38.86 and about $100 - $150 to have it installed by an independent shop that repairs cylinders. Do the math, and decide if it is worth repairing. I would remove the cylinder and examine the chrome piston for pitting...

    I have a b2601 tractor with a bx5455hd snowblower front attachment

    What is the model of the quick disconnect of your machine? This problem isn't the snowblower, but the attachment part that mounts on the machine. If it is a new machine, I would have the dealer deal with replacing the cylinder. If it is an older unit, then you probably need the cylinder...

    BX snow removal suggestions.

    If you want to add a power angle to your blade, you should be able to do it for less than the cost of the kit from Kubota. The first thing to do is to get the kit number and figure out what components you will need from Kubota and what components you can source from independent sources. Items...

    Found it but can't get a wrench on it!

    If the wires plug into the top of the switch, it might just require a special socket to remove. The old GM engines used a temperature sender that would ground when overheating, and that required a special socket to remove. It has some larger flats and smaller flats, which prevented you from...

    no work lights

    I had a similar problem with my BX23S with a Curtis cab. The lights on the cab are fused off of the battery, and not the fuse block. The power wire runs up the right A-pillar to the roof of the cab and then to the switches. There are also small white push-button circuit breakers directly...

    BX snow removal suggestions.

    In theory, you shouldn't use 4 wheel drive on dry pavement. I have been known to forget to take it out of 4 wheel drive, but the tractor will let me know by feel since it will make a jerking motion when turning. Sometimes it will be necessary to back up a few feet to release the tension to...

    down pressure on a rear blade, add weights the only solution?

    That is the nice thing about a backhoe... It has outriggers for down-pressure!

    B7200D Pilot bushing question

    Considering that you have it all apart, look into having the clutch relined or buying a new one from the Kubota dealer. If it were me, I would have replaced every part of the clutch assembly except for the flywheel, which I would have resurfaced. If you really want to go all out, you could...

    When the wind decides to turn a barn into a chicken coop!

    Thanks for that link. I read a lot of good information about roofs and snow. While reading it, I realized that I forgot to turn on the rood deicing cables after our snow 2 days ago. Going to do that now.

    First time blowing snow with a BX2916 and BX4090 Cab

    Got the blower driveshaft installed a couple of days ago, and installed the snowblower, but there was no snow to test it on but it was quite noisy. I placed a case of oil on the seat of the BX23S so I could diagnose the noise coming from the front of my snowblower. Once I determined that it...

    When the wind decides to turn a barn into a chicken coop!

    There are 7.48 gallons of water in a cubic foot, and water weighs 8 pounds per gallon. I have no way of knowing exactly how much water is in a cubic foot of water-saturated snow, but I am inclined to believe that it is more than 20 pounds. I guess that it has more to do with how many inches...

    6 inch bucket for Kubota BH77 backhoe

    Keep your eye on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist, and you will never know what will turn up within an hour's driving distance. I found an 8" trenching bucket last fall about an hour's drive from home. I really didn't need it but it was new and I figured that it was a good enough buy that...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    1 comment: You need a cab to keep you out of the elements. 1 question: Where did you get the shoes on your snowblower? They look like they go from the back of the blower to the front edge of the blower.

    Coolant for BX-2680

    $5 for a gallon of 50/50 premix is a steal. I bought some a few years ago, and it was $10 a gallon. The full strength was about $12 a gallon and distilled water was $1 a gallon, so for $14 I got 2 gallons of 50/50 self-mixed antifreeze.

    Extreme Cold weather operation

    Putting a jumper between the terminals of the seat switch accomplishes the same thing. My old BX22 didn't have any of these new seat switches to drive you crazy.

    Early BX2200 with LA211 FEL - loader hoses messed up

    When I had a hydraulic motor on my BX22, I installed adjustable limiters in the hose lines to regulate the speed of the motor. When I used the snowblower I would push the RPMs to about 3000.
