    Parts No Longer Being Produced

    I agree with just getting them made up at your local hydraulics shop. Anything like bearings, fan belts or any other standard items can be usually sourced cheaper. Belts are one of the biggest scams ever, Might take a while at your bearing supply place but mine actually has a cross reference...

    BX25 Replacement Seat Options

    Just checked the Northern Tool seat again and all the info is in their Q&A's. Only problem I see is that it does not flip forward. The height from bottom to top of seat cushion is around 7" so I will have to see what room I have to work with to fab up a hinged mount with retainer. I need...

    BX25 Replacement Seat Options

    I have been looking for a replacement seat for my B7200. Has anyone ever used one of these? I am trying to find some more dimensions such as the height from bottom to seat surface. Maybe it will work on the BX25. Looking for a suitable suspension seat that will fit...

    L3800 4WD Operation

    Running around without a counter weight can kill more than front axle components as a chap I know found out while going down hill with a bucket full of earth. Spent weeks in hospital. A loader should never be used without a counter weight. Whether in 4wd or not you will experience more wear...

    L3800 4WD Operation

    I must be lucky as well. After 28 years and 1400 hours of operation I can count on one hand how many times I have had it out of 4wd. Mine shifts just fine but maybe I will make a point of using 2wd when going down my 4000 foot driveway. I find that it turns better in 4wd like when I am bush...

    Front end loader technique

    I frequently use my loader for bulldozer work as well as back dragging. I use common sense and watch that I am only moving loose material. My loader is not a Kubota model as Kubota Canada was only importing the tractor and mower when I purchased it new in 1985 (at least that is what I was...

    b77 backhoe question

    Mine is a Woods 650 Backhoe but I have never heard of a backhoe that will not allow all actions to be done simultaneously. In fact as you probably know you have to operate more than one function at a time to achieve smooth operation. I do not think that the chap at the dealership knows what he...

    PTO Direction

    This is a picture of mine. It is attached to the sub frame I made for my backhoe. It can also attach to the standard 3 pt arms.

    b6200 hst hydro troubles

    http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12775 Too bad there wasn't any other farm equipment dealer closer to you. Any good tractor mechanic could do this job but might have to order parts if required. Of course the best would be a Kubota dealer. Now you obviously have to...

    PTO Direction

    What kind of a 4 sided blade is that? That will work if the logs are 6"-8" in diameter. I am confused a bit as well. I have split wood with mine that were 30" across but mine has a single wide deep blade on the cylinder that is razor sharp.

    L3400 - My two issues addressed

    A tool box has been on my wish list for years. A place to put gloves and a couple of wrenches. I always hook an adjustable wrench under a hitch pin for re-tightening hitch arms etc. One of these days I am going to lose it.

    B7200 Water pump Replacement

    I replaced my water pump about 5 years ago and yes I took the rad out. My tractor is the same age as yours and probably had around 1000 hours on it at the time. My pump was not leaking but was very sloppy in the bearing. I noticed the fan flopping around so I decided it was time to change the...

    Have a Good Tractor -Cheap Price - But No Takers - Why?

    You certainly are not asking too much for the tractor. If it was 4wd and had a loader you could sell it overnight up here in Ontario. I have been trying to help a friend find one but they are snapped up fast. I would add the engine hours to the advertisement.

    Best place to buy shop manuals?

    Do a Google search for "Kubota b2620 service manual download" I ordered mine from the dealer when my tractor was new.

    B7100 Rotating Engine

    That is interesting! Quite frankly even with the cold weather we have in the winter I have never had to use it. Tractor seem to always start with just the pre-heat.

    kubota L235 no hydrolics

    If you are lucky you have found the problem with the inlet tube. I hope you got this tractor for a super price considering it had no hydraulics and 3600 hours. I have a friend who is looking for a Kubota and asked me to look at a used one with him. It think it was a B1750 with 3600 hours and...

    B7100 Rotating Engine

    I think what is meant here is to just pull out on the decompression knob that is generally used for cold weather starting. I see no need to remove anything to make it easier to spin the engine when a system is already there which does the same thing. I understand that this tractor has this...

    kubota L235 no hydrolics

    Sounds like the problem could be within the tractor. If you have the isolation valve I mentioned previously, you can close it to isolate the loader control valve. If the three point hitch still acts the same you have at least eliminated the loader valve as a problem. What is the history of the...

    kubota L235 no hydrolics

    As Wolfman asked does the three point hitch work properly. Not sure if yours is the same but my B7200 has a tiny isolation valve on the block where the hoses feeding the loader control valve attach. If this is turned a bit it would restrict the flow and cause your problems. Mine is just a small...
