    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Yes, extruded Al clip strips are what we built the tree nursery hoop greenhouses with. They replaced the poly covers every 3-5 years so quick-attach-detach fastener strips did the job.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    My 1200+ hour B2650HSD engine sounds smoother and quieter than even a year ago! Really, after every 200 hour servicing the engine T6-5w40 the post oil change engine sounds better than the last post-oil-change running engine. Smoother, quieter, and more responsive. HST oil change quiets more too...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Oh yes, I've had that as a dream since first building this one almost 10 years ago. Wasn't in the cards (budget) at the time. But once this poly breaks down and needs replacing I'll be lining with greenhouse clear poly before the new cover goes on. Some sealing/tightening sheets together system...

    Picture your vehicles with the stickers.

    I'm 65 and retired, after a rotator injury cut off prematurely my last few most productive financially years for my building contractor business, 3 years ago. So just saying I get it, feel for your loss and struggles on all levels. Your loss may be earlier in life and way more impactful and...

    Moving heavy wet snow

    My B2782B 63" blower has never sheared the blower pin in any kind of wet snow/gravel/freezing/thawing scenario. The blower pin goes when a chunk of firewood or rock larger than about 2" makes it through the augers, which are the usual pin-breakers, not the blower. But it has to be something more...

    B2791A Male Quick Hitch Pin Won't Engage

    Took a look at my blower quickhitch subframe today. The 4 mounting bolts for the rear attachment point (the tube that the pin engages) are all through slotted mount holes with 2-3" play front to back. If they're nice and tight on your frame then why it shifted would indeed be a mystery but at...

    B2791A Male Quick Hitch Pin Won't Engage

    Make sure that the T-screw-tightened locking block is in the correct orientation and loose enough for the male hitch hanger to hook on and mount properly. If it's stuck in the way the alignment will be affected. And that same male adapter hanger lip that hooks on the tractor frame just below...

    Quick question on FEL float

    Yes. On my B2650 curl functions while boom float engaged.

    Picture your vehicles with the stickers.

    I could care less what my tractor "looks" like or what stickers have survived physical abuse from tractor operation, sun drying and peeling, or power washer forces. It's my workhorse, and looks like it. But I certainly DO notice the plastic bits the stickers leave behind. Just more plastic...

    B2782 Snowblower with brand new fan, shear plate etc. breaking pins and pto drivelines

    These B2782B blowers do have 2. A direct-to-shaft set screw, and the shaft spline set screw. It's at 90 degrees from the spline. They both back out, and the twisting play vibration that causes gets everything loosening. I now check my small sprocket-to-input shaft play every time the blower goes...

    B2782 Snowblower with brand new fan, shear plate etc. breaking pins and pto drivelines

    I'm pretty sure i know what that rough spot is caused by, as i have the same blower and have corrected that issue with mine, and others issues. The large sprocket on the fan and auger gearbox input shaft is not perfectly round and if there's not enough slack in the chain ALL AROUND its travel...

    Wandering Steering Wheel

    Does the steering wheel "wander", or is it able to be turned with a little force when the tractor is stopped and the wheels are turned all the way to one side's stop? My B2650 hydraulic steering "gives" a little whrn the steering wheel is turned against a stopped wheel, the hydraulic bypass...

    What size / grade chain for lifting and pulling?

    I found a slip hook rather than a grab hook at one end of my chains makes for way easier log pulling.

    Need help identifying a 3-pt hitch part.

    I ordered the BH77 along with the new tractor in 2017, so came with all the stuff - sub-frame, rear hydraulics, swivel seat, etc. all installed when delivered.

    Need help identifying a 3-pt hitch part.

    That's to mount between the rops behind the seat, it has a clip for holding a SMV sign and a clip for the top link to be kept up and out out trouble while not connected to an implement. My clip plate isn't usable as I have the BH77 backhoe that needs the swivel seat in action.
