    B2601 owners

    I've got some mild grades I mow a trail on using a flail mower and it seems fine in medium (although I'm not mowing real heavy grass.) I had a JD garden tractor (so just a MMM is all I did with it) before with a 25HP Yanmar. I can tell the Kubota is moving more weight around compared to the...

    Pond problem, algae bloom

    I use nitrate and phosphate test kits to measure nutrient load, then have used a binder (Phosphate Eliminator) over a few weeks to bring the phos level down. I believe this helped (per test numbers) plus I did do a few treatments with algacide as well at the first signs of a bloom (just a...

    Box blade

    LP BB1254 on a my B2601 pictured. Used on mostly level ground for driveway maintenance and light dirt moving. Like any tractor / implement combo a certain amount of operator finesse factor is learned to get the job done. Keeping an eye on the box load, gradual lifts of the box to feather out...

    kubota grey paint

    If not already aware Rustoleum offers Kubota orange in spray and can forms. I found Home Depot was the best route on the spray (using to re‐touch the bucket after doing some weld on hooks.) I went this route on the gray as I'll need more of it for a larger fabrication project and I couldn't...

    Pallet forks

    I've got the set on the right and they do fine on a B2601. I'm using for things well within machine capacity and nothing particularly delicate so keep that in mind.
