    Can I do my own 1st service

    When I took delivery of my B2650HSDC this May, the dealer hadn't topped off the hydraulic fluid after installing the backhoe. They shipped me a gallon of SUDT2 at no charge so I could bring the fluid to the correct operating level. I didn't hesitate to use it as I was told it was compatible...

    B2650hsdc Gets a New Set of Fangs

    When I bought my B2650hsdc I saved the forks from the small skid steer that I sold as I no longer needed it. I bought a blank quick attach plate from Amazon and welded on all the necessary pieces to mount the forks. I really like the results, except I think I could have used the 3/8"plate...

    FIXED - Vague control feeling in BH77 Backhoe

    Ok, since I also just got my b2650hsdc with the BH77 backhoe on May 6th. I thought I would go out and check my control rod bolts. I don’t know if was done at the factory or dealer, but all the nuts were secured with red thread locker. None were loose. I do think I will add some grease where...

    Off-road diesel?

    The way it was described to me by the Minnesota Department of Revenue, is that as long as whatever it is that you put the off road diesel in, is not licenced by the State of Minnesota, it can be used and driven on any public road. He even told me I could drive my tractor to town with no...

    B2650 bi-speed turn?

    Ok, so I've done some more reading, and I do find several references to bi-speed turning in the WSM. Once on a schematic for the hydraulics, and another on the indicator lights on the dash. But there is nothing in the current sales brochure that mentions it. I believe it is a 2014 printing of...

    B2650 bi-speed turn?

    Because I am still waiting on the delivery of my B2650, all I have been doing is reading everything I can on this forum. One question I have i what is bi-speed turning? Something to do with four wheel drive? I've looked in the WSM and haven't found what it is or does other than an indicator...

    High Sulfur diesel in 2014 L3800

    I had 2 55 gallon drums, but I have over the years given away half of it. As much as I would like some cheap fuel, After all the concerns brought to my attention, I can't in good conscience bring myself to pour any of it into a brand new 40k tractor. I have no idea where I could take it to...

    Work Shop Manuals (WSM)

    Ok, so I looked further on this site, and the source for the manual i found is referenced on another thread. So I guess I didn't find something new. Sorry for the confusion.

    Work Shop Manuals (WSM)

    Looks like this is the right place to post this so here goes. Because I haven't even taken delivery of my B2650HSDC I have nothing to do but wait for it, so I have pretty much spent my time on this site reading all I can here to learn as much as I can. While searching here and on the web, I...

    High Sulfur diesel in 2014 L3800

    Ok, so new diesel fuel will last a while, great. What about #2 heating oil that has been stored in a plastic 55 gallon drum that has been sitting outside the whole time. When we moved up here ten years ago, we switched from oil heat to propane. I pumped the fuel into the drums and it has been...

    High Sulfur diesel in 2014 L3800

    I am amazed at all of the quick responses. That is great! Now to continue with a couple of follow up questions, Living in northern Minnesota, would it just be good practice to treat the fuel with Stanadyne year round? How long does diesel stay fresh, when treated properly? I ask these...

    High Sulfur diesel in 2014 L3800

    So this seems the right thread to ask the the question I have. I haven't even taken delivery of my B2650HSDC, and never owned anything with a diesel engine, that's how new I am. So when you pick yourself off the floor from laughing, answer me this. Do I just go to the gas station and fill my...

    Dirtydeed, thanks for the link, that's not what I had in mind, it's way better!! I learned to weld when I was 11, so making a set in my shop is no problem. I already took a screen shot to make a set when I have time. Ray, the new toy will be all mine! My wife won't even drive the atv...

    Thanks for the warm welcomes. I'm an instant gratification type of guy, so the waiting time is just about unbearable. As far as snow removal, what I currently use does get the job done. But being 63, getting into a warm cab has to be better. As a matter of fact even as I sit here replying it...

    I would like to take time to introduce myself. I've been lurking for the past week or so, as I have decided to purchase my first and brand new Kubota. Let me start out by saying, and my wife would agree that it is all her fault. A few weeks ago she mentioned that it would be nice if I could...
