At my old house, I used a 1' length of 1/2" pvc pipe and solvent welded on a male threaded coupling. Drove that into the ground level with the grass and then in the fall, I would screw a 4' length of pvc pipe with a female coupling on the end onto that. After the first year, I learned that I had...

I "paint" the pins with never seize, even when they have grease fittings. The never seize protects the metal from rusting, and as a result, I have never had a pin that I couldn't get out. I have had some pins that just won't accept grease, and have had to manually clean out the old hard...

I had a similar problem in my back yard, and I resolved it by using a York rake after the soil was loosened up. I mixed some sand and loam into the hard soil, and after a number of passes with the York rake, it was smooth as I felt that it needed to be. I then spread 10/10/10 fertilizer on the...

Not always, that is why we have appeal courts, to determine if the judge in the case made the correct call. Then if they said that he did, and you decide to challenge that again, there is the Supreme Court of the State, which you would think would get it right, but not always, so then it starts...

I have a block heater in the engine of my BX22, and if I didn't, I would invest in a magnetic block heater, and put it on the engine when I knew that I was going to need to use the tractor. Most engine wear happens when they are cold, so for the slight inconvenience of having to remove the...

Manufacturers today use a law that allows them to set the minimum advertised price, and if you violate that, they can shut you off from being able to purchase product from them in the future. The law doesn't allow a manufacturer to control the sale price after the first sale, which would be...

Can't speak specifically to your state, however, in most states, if it is a powered piece of equipment, it has to have a license plate attached to it to go over the road. I live in a rural area, so there are very few police that will give you a problem if you are clearing snow right after a...

Take pictures before you disassemble, makes it a lot easier to know where and how the parts go back together when it comes time to reassemble. I was working on a snow blower this past summer, and had difficulty getting the bearing out. Then after looking at the parts schematic and the blower...

What model tractor are you attempting to install the BX2750 snow blower on? The BX2750, including all the sub models, A, B, C, D, etc. use a Quick Hitch. I am not certain of the model number, and doing a quick search on the Messick website, I found a hitch diagram that is similar, if not the...

I use Kubota color matching rubber/vinyl hydraulic fitting caps on my snow blower, and they match the correct fittings that are used for the various lines. It takes a few minutes to install them, but it saves a lot of trial and error time when installing the snow blower lines. The most time you...

I have a broom, and it is OK for light fluffy snow, but usually when we get snow, it is a lot of it. I have used the broom to clean up after I blow the snow off the driveway, so what is left doesn't freeze and turn into ice. They work great for clearing the leaves off the lawn!

Check for broken shear pin in the fan. The system is chain drive, so if the chain is a little loose, it will not change the speed, however, if it gets too loose, it can get thrown off the sprocket. Make sure to lubricate the chain with chain bar oil. I warm my bar oil first, and use a pump...

When I took my tractor to the local dealer, they did the repair, and charged me $15 shipping for a few washers to increase the pressure in my hydraulic system. I asked at the parts counter if it was a stock part, and he said, how many do you want? 25 in stock at all times. It is just another...

Just a reminder to all Kubota snow blower users to check the gear oil for water inside the box. Don't use the "out of sight, out of mind" excuse when it goes bad because of contaminated gear oil.

Slip a piece of 3/8" black iron pipe over the pin all the way to the bottom, and gently straighten it back to where it belongs. Don't know how you did that, except to have gotten the lower hinge off, and then the door fell down, bending the upper pin. You can also try to reverse the way that...

Only works on the newer machines, not my BX22 (2004)

You are supposed to do your do diligence before you purchase, not afterward. I am an optimist, and believe that most people are honest in their descriptions, however, if they are not educated in what they are selling, then can mislead you without knowing it. Kubota products are quite reliable...

I bought mine about 10 years ago, and it cost $700 delivered. Considering how the cost of steel has risen, along with labor costs, I think that the price doubling is understandable. I rarely use mine, and if I could rent one, I think that would be a better way to go. You really don't get the...

Thanks... I ordered the valve, and found a discount code on their "twitter" page, that brought the valve down to $107.55 from $125.20 which was 14.10% discount, and also got free shipping. Ordered some fittings to go with the valve to hook up the hoses, and all totaled, it cost me $138 plus...
