    Need some help with BX2200 MMM creating "circles"

    That is a suspended mower deck; the anti-scalp wheels are not intended to carry the weight of the deck. I keep my wheels at a similar height, but have never seen those types of swirls on a bumpy lawn. That said, my grass is nowhere near as nice as that.....:oops: Foolish question, but are the...

    4 in 1 bucket

    Skeets - - I've dealt with them on a industrial TLB, but not on a subcompact. Worked great on a heavy-duty machine. mikester's M59 would be great. Given the lighter construction needed for a sub- I'd probably choose a grapple first over a 4-in-1. MHO.

    Never crossed my mind until now.... :rolleyes: Funny part was at the time I had some of his cassettes in my truck... the song "Man on the Silver Mountain" by Rainbow was a favorite. I think the album was just titled Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow.... Had some 'Sabbath as well. I was just a...

    (Hydraulic) fluid leak, steady pour upon starting up tractor

    You beat me to it! I didn't notice the bent bracket. Looks like filter can't turn off as is. But I did learn how to paste in a schematic.....you can teach an old dog new tricks....(actually taught myself...) :geek: To the OP - -It does look like something got up in there. You may want to...

    (Hydraulic) fluid leak, steady pour upon starting up tractor

    Look here, agree to legal then put in your BX23S model. Go to HST 3. If I have it right, those are 3 plugs..... https://apps.kubotausa.com/illustrated-parts/ Do one or two of the plugs look damaged, or are they loose? The center one looks buggered up to me.... Also, is that the original...

    Ferris Question

    Sounds like you got a good find! Good luck! I think Ferris is manufactured an hour from me. See a lot of them around here. Don't know much about them other than they seem to be bulletproof. Most of the commercial guys use them. Neighbor across road has had one for close to 15 years...

    New BX Oil leaking from front hydraulic connections.

    Those quick connections have been a problem for some. A couple guys just re-plumbed back to 4 separate pioneer fittings. Is it leaking with the loader on, or with it off? I think some have experienced both problems. If it’s on, you might try disconnecting and reconnecting the loader, while...

    Bx23s backhoe hydraulic fluid leak?

    Like Hokie said, clean everything real well. When running again, baby powder will stick to the leak.

    5740 L hydro stat reverse only

    Assuming it’s an HST, because you say pushing a pedal and it goes reverse either way?!? EDIT: I missed it in the title...yes an HST. Sorry about that....my bad... Like BigG said - - definitely start to look at the linkage from pedal down. There's times they get bent. A parts diagram might...

    Ear Candy...

    Skeets posted Deep Purple....many years ago I met Ronny Dio several times. His cousin was a waitress I worked with. He wasn't in Deep Purple, but his band Elf opened for them. Then with Ritchie Blackmore formed Rainbow. Also did a stint with Black Sabbath replacing Ozzy Osbourne. He...

    Need help identifying age of B6000 tractor

    Unlike some tractor manufacturers, Kubota does not maintain Serial # data by year built. Typically they are referred to by year first bought new.

    5740 L hydro stat reverse only

    Don't know much about your tractor, but certainly suggest getting a Workshop Manual (WSM). I see one here: https://www.manualslib.com/brand/kubota/tractor.html I would first suspect a linkage issue, but there's many possibilities.

    Why all the fires...

    ‘Cat - many years ago, the same happened to the Pine Barrens of New Jersey. After the area was populated, fires were not deemed proper. Unfortunately, Jack Pine was the predominant species of the ecosystem. Jack Pine relies on periodic fire to open it’s cones to release the seed..... No fire, no...

    Warranty Forgiveness

    They call that an extended warranty. No idea if Kubota offers one, but I’ve never believed in them for the $$ they cost. A racket in my opinion.....Buy a $200 tool at a box store.....”do you want the customer protection plan for just $40 for 3 years?” Umm, no....why pay 20% more off the top...
