    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    The 72 series couplers are ISO 7241-B couplers and will not interconnect with ISO 4265 couplers in any body size. There are many brands and sources for 7241-B couplers. Dan

    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    I suspect you will find the "Kubota" couplers at Summit are just their ISO 7241B couplers listed with the Kubita number. i know Kubota does not us "AG" couplers on their loaders and I suspect the backhoes are the same. They do use them on.1/2" rear remotes where thats the ibdustry standard but...

    hydraulic hose repair

    I am not surprised - my local Parker store is insanely expensive if you are a walk in customer. The Messicks price is still high. I dont think there is a hose on an LA525 loader that costs more than $25 to make and most are about $15. Dan

    MechMaxx stump grinder with LX4020 (and other mentions)

    I have the Woodland Mills version and I think you did good. The Wood Maxx looks identical and its $500 cheaper. Three years ago I think mine cost about the same as yours but I would have to check to be sure. They do obliterate stumps and mine paid for itself very quickly 😍 Dan

    Lubrication type

    I like orange and spicey because its high in habanero but you have to pair that with an engine oil containing at least 1400 PPM Nexium. :eek: Dan

    Help with quick connect fitting size for Kubota BT 600 Backhoe

    Just an educated guess but Kubota likes to use the ISO 7241-B series for their 1/4" and 3/8" body size couplers. https://summit-hydraulics.com/product-category/quick-disconnect-couplers/iso-7241-b-quick-couplers/ Dan

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    I checked the exchange rate. 400 NZD = $234 USD which is not out of line with what that would cost here. My cost for enough bulk hose to make the hoses plus the hose ends, quick couplers, and port fittings would be about $100. Thats without any labor. My local Parker store would want 3X that...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    Its not a groove in the typical sense. Its a carefully engineered seat. Heres the details.

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    Yikes!!! Sounds mighty expensive to me!!! I hope that included all hoses and quick couplers. Not surprised by the clearance problems. What size hose did they use and what type of hose ends? BSPP fittings require either a copper crush washer or a bonded elastomeric seal like these. SAE ORB...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    First, no apologies needed. This can be confusing with just one style of standard fitting and Kubota has combimed BSPP and SAE ORB with non-standard banjo bolts. At this point you dont even need the hose shop. You need a standard 3/8 BSPP banjo or ekbow to xxx adapter, babjo bolt, and...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    Paul, just measure the threads on your banjo bolts . Those are standard ports and all you need is standard fittings wirh the correct size and type of thread. The transmission is a British pipe thread port rhat will accept any standard off the shelf BSPP fiitting of the proper size. The valve...

    Perform DPM on my terms.

    Just happened to me. Damn thing started to regen just as I was headed for the shop. Drove over to the house instead and left it running while I made a cup of coffee and had "just a few" of the Thanksgiving chocolate chip cookies I made earlier in the day. Regen was complete by the time I was...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    One more example. This is the Landpride B2601kit. P1 = power beyond port on loader valve 2 = SAE male to JIC male port adapter 3 = JIC female swivel x JIC male elbow. 6 = 3/8" hydraulic hose with JIC female swivel ends

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    BINGO!! Finally got some supporting data from the Kubota L4060 parts catalog. Heres the banjo bolt used on that loader valve: 3/4-16 UNF. Thats an SAE-08 port thread and things are starting to get a little clearer in my mind. In the US Kubota loader valves typically have SAE ports and are...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    Here is a picture of the Summit rear remote kit for a B2601. Notice the two hoses have JIC female swivels on all ends and the valve has male JIC adapters in the the subplate. The four fittings circled on red are used to connect the two hoses to the power beyond ports in place of the OEM pipe...

    Hydraulic outlets on B2601 for log splitter

    Because you may not reuse those bolts!! That was the inital assumption but after your hose guys looked at the pipe thats now in question. If the pipe is hybrid or nonstandard the bolts may not be standard items. They may be extra long for thicker banjos because the pipe is larger diameter. If...
