These are the comments that worry me. Our property isn’t as simple as up and down or not. There are contours in more than one direction, im not sure how much incline is a ‘hill’ and needs to be avoided.

Good suggestions. i was talking with the owner. In theory, he is the most knowledgeable…

Thanks everyone! I’m really glad I didn’t just take the dealers word that everything is ok. After draining the filter cup, it’s obviously water. And the fact that it is SOOOO dirty also concerns me. While it might be overkill, I think I’ll drain the tank just to be safe. $20 worth of diesel and...

Yeah, I will keep it topped up from now on. i suppose tossing the questionable diesel can’t hurt. I just need to figure out how to drain a tank on this thing.

Stopped at the gas station and they have white bottle power service diesel fuel supplement but not the silver. Our Reno’s will be in 40s and 50s the next couple weeks. Is there harm in using the winter stuff in these warm temps?

Thanks! I did remove the cup and emptied it into a glass jar. The b2601 stops the flow, so can’t easily collect a sample. Then I rinsed the filter and cup with my ‘road diesel’ and poured that into a glass jar. It seems obvious that they are not the same. Also, when shaking the red jar it...

I told him I assumed the fuels would mix and he said that can delend on a lot of things. Guess I also assumed he or warranty would cover any problems since I contacted him and I haven’t done anything to it since delivery. But, maybe worth confirming and I’d still rather avoid trouble than fix...

Problem is, I’m a pretty new to all of this. I’ve never owned a tractor of any kind before and only had a diesel car for a few months in the summer while I was living in Europe. So, my assessment of what it is won’t be great. I’ll see if my old timey neighbor who knows everything can come over...

If it weren’t for the part about voiding the warranty, I’d already have spacers. Is it worth voiding the warranty, though? If I get chains and I going to need them anyway? Seems weird that kubota sells spacers but they void the warranty.

Just talked with the dealer. I emailed him a pic. He says it’s not clear so I don’t need to be worried. They may have added road diesel (yellow) that didn’t mix with the ag diesel (red). He says I can go ahead and run it without doing anything. He also mentioned that new tractors can have some...

So, the yellow liquid and sediment is just normal water from condensation? Not something more sinister? Just take it off, dump it, change the filter and everything is fine? I got a winter additive, but didn’t think it is cold enough yet. Is power service diesel kleen something I get at the gas...

I have filled the tires, so that should help, but I don’t have a mid-mount mower. The manual mentioned putting wheels at widest setting, but then seemed like it said the B2601 does not have a wide setting. Am I correct in thinking there is no width option for wheels in the B2601? I also asked...

Uh oh, I’m planning to use it to plow my hilly driveway too. Got a nice snow pusher with it. Guess I might need to look into chains.

Thanks for the tips so far. I’ll definitely start slow and work my way up taking into acct your advice

It does seem like a lot of gunk for a new machine. That’s why I was so confused. A bit of water from condensation would make sense with humid cooling weather. But that doesn’t look like simply water. I guess just because it’s a new machine doesn’t mean it was filled with fresh fuel. I’d like...

Hello, New Kubota owner. Just got my B2601 and I'm very excited. But ... our land is very hilly. I don't think there is a flat spot on our property. So, I know I know I need to be cautious about the hills and rollover. Does anyone have any tips on how I can figure out what is safe and where it...

Hello, I'm super new to my kubota and the forums. I have a B2601 with only 6 hours on it. I haven't even added fuel yet; still running on the tank it came with. Today after a week on vacation, and significant cooling temperatures, I went out to look for the QR code to add it to the kubota app...
