If you hadn’t already found it, look for one of these drain plugs (item-30) on each side:

Brian has a nice write-up on check valves on his website: https://www.fitritehydraulics.com/checkvalves.html

I just enjoy working on this stuff so decided to get the kits ordered in from Kubota and do it all myself, albeit slowly. I’m happily on Brian’s (Fit-Rite) waitlist for the two cylinders, but I’m looking forward to getting it all put together. I did notice the Kubota kits have all been updated...

this is a BH77 - 88” x 60” on this dolly on final approach 😁

You generally have 60 days to dispute a charge on your credit card statement, so definitely keep that in mind if you’re approaching that date while awaiting your delivery. I have an order in with EA myself (never had any issues before with them), and have a few days before the 60 day mark to...

Whichever one you do end up with, be sure the box blade will be wide enough to cover your tracks, especially in the event that you later may decide to widen the stance in the rear with spacers. I added 3” spacers to the rear of my 3301 (same foot print as yours) and have the 66” version from EA...

Amen to that—any grapple is better than no grapple (assuming the tractor can’t lift it when holding a twig, of course). I never did understand the nomenclature of Root Grapple vs Root-Rake Grapple—I’m sure the guys down in marketing were all over that🤗. I just preferred the bigger (non-Rake)...

I ran into the same issue as you (same configuration it looks like) and until I come up with a permanent fix, here’s my workaround using some hook and loop (Velcro) tape

That’s a great choice, given everything you laid out. I too wanted a double lid version and even though I went a little heavy at 60”/430# for an EA model (also am eyeballing down the road a slightly bigger tractor), it has done a great job for what I was looking to do with it. I’m very glad I...

Pretty certain that 50hr service was not included with my purchase. That said, even if it had been, I would have still done it myself (with good record keeping, of course). I just don’t believe the (typically) new guys they’ve got doing this type of work are going to do it, “the way I would do...

I sure haven’t seen any examples anywhere. In fact, I have now over 600hrs in three years and not one issue. I did take serious early on though, the recommendations of some pretty smart people on here to take care of my tractor’s diesel like Lt Dan told Forrest Gump to take care of his feet...

Congratulations on your acquisition! Certain ‘proclivities’ of the modern common-rail diesel engine make it particularly vulnerable to fuel of questionable moral fiber: Purchase quality diesel from a location that moves a bunch of it. Check your water separator often. Use a Mr Funnel fuel...

I’ve got a weight distribution hitch with a built-in scale from Weigh Safe for when I go long distances and heavy.

Some degree of whine is actually considered normal with these models. Certainly a big change not attributable to fluid level and quality should be investigated, but doesn’t seem warranted in this instance.

Got it—just a thought. Also, with my BH coming on and off all the time, I keep a pretty close eye on my fluid level as I’m always losing a little with the changeovers—that in and of itself makes mine a little more whiny if it’s running lower.

Are you seeing any difference whether you’re in Low/Medium/High with what you’re doing? Mine squeals like a big pig when I’m doing certain things in too ‘high’ a range (lugging my backhoe up a long hill).
