Agree with keeping CG low as possible. Some ground is soft so increasing area and height will help. Digging on slopes also need height to plumb machine for stability. 5.5” longer should help tipping sideways. Increased pad weight from 21 to 82#. Rubber pads helped sliding on all surfaces on...

Increase area 2.5X to prevent sinking. Increase height 6” Rubber pads engage 1.5” before cleats.

Very nice fabrication and write up. Like the added side protection. Building before the grapple is smart.

Good modification to prevent driving with brake on. I used a motorcycle rear brake switch on the engagement lever on the B26.

Pole saw valving has to be compatible with the tractors open center hydraulic system. Just made this polesaw.

Thanks for the kind words. Most limbs fall away from the tractor. Got to be careful. Any work around trees or in the woods a canopy is a good idea.

Fist size Parker motor doesn’t weigh much. This size motor works well with this size tractor. Haven’t adjusted oiler yet. Still busy picking up limbs ;-) Several trees trimmed would have been hard to reach with bucket truck.

Modified bar to run on the left and supported saw bar cover plate are few unique features added.

Stihl RS .325pitch, 0.063, 83dl. D025 blade mount has 0.475 slot for bar strength?

Yes using 3rd function. Chainsaw has little rotational momentum. Reverse helps crawl out of a pinched cut. Metering valve allows little hydraulic fluid to chain. Drop every 4 seconds running at no load speed equates to 1-2 cup per week. 5000rpm motor is about half the chain speed so less heat...

Made this for the M59. 24.5’ reach. 235# 12gpm fist size hydraulic motor. About 17hp. 20” blade. ~$600 parts less steel. Used steel from scrap pile. 3” x 1/4” wall square tubing.

54” wicked on B26. Worth the wait. Absolutely love it.

Made out of piece of 2x3” tubing and two 5/8” split shaft collars.

Don’t know if we are ever done adding.

Added 2” wheel spacers and methanol ballast in the rear tires of the B26 to improve hillside rear finish mowing. Significant improvement. Also helped with FEL balance. Always back toward creek and pond edges.

That’s a nice job and important to safely carry a chainsaw on a tractor. The wood is okay but prefer the durability of steel. Sized to hold the plastic sleeve guard on the saw for chain protection on the tractor or moving to truck or shop. Added T-bolts to clamp the saw bar in the holder but...

B26 chain and chainsaw mount.

Think Kubota used the same rubber pads for many applications. I know the same ones for the B26 and M59. Mounting studs about 8” centers. Good for hard surfaces the rubber also helps on my hillside farm. Good price just for the rubber pads. Be surprised what a difference they make.

Quarry screen is 1/4” wires is extra tough. Scrapyard find. Good time to add some hooks. stainless steel expanded metal was also a scrapyard find almost cut to size. <$5. 3x5” angle at bottom blocks stick from coming up.
