    Flow reducer

    There are pressure restricters you can put inline to reduce the amount of flow on a hydraulic system. I've used them many times for different applications. They have an adjustable knob on them and work really well. As for the deflector on a snow blower chute I've used a 12 volt linear actuator...

    Skeets, I didn't want it!!!!

    Yup managers think they got all the answers but sometimes they don't. I'm enjoying my extra time now plus I'm not tearing up a perfectly good machine for a few months of snow clearing. On a positive note. I had a friend drop by the shop today. He was telling me he reads my posts on a few of...

    School me on BX's

    Lower hp tractors can stand up against the big guys. Case in point is this 18hp against a 850hp. :D http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=FLQhvruimfs

    Skeets, I didn't want it!!!!

    Well to tell the truth it was a little bit of what you said plus the fact that the rules changed in my contract. The owner of the property stated that they didn't want any snow clearing done during the weekends no matter how much snow fell. Well that created a bit of an issue for me because my...

    Skeets, I didn't want it!!!!

    Well we had another friggen storm last night with wind warnings. It was a nasty night but it turned to freezing rain so this morning I had to take Killer out again. More snow on the way for tomorrow night. Glad I'm not doing this commercially anymore.

    School me on BX's

    Hey I'm only speaking the truth. I'm still in awe of what this BX has done in the 60 hours that's on the clock to date. Kubota Canada gave me a hat one time. Do that count? ;) When we started working the BX last spring the first photo will show what and why we needed it. The goal was to put a...

    School me on BX's

    We have a Cabbed Kubota 5740 which we really like but we have a BX25-D we love. This little tractor has done more work for us that I really never thought possible. I am a licensed heavy equipment operator and have operated some pretty big machines but the one that always surprises the heck out...

    Upright FEL Storage (with pics)

    Are you asking how to resize photo's? If so this this the program I use. It's free too. I don't use it with the iPad though. http://download.cnet.com/IrfanView/

    Upright FEL Storage (with pics)

    This is the BIGGEST gripe I have with this site. Every other site I'm on as I post photos the site will resize the image automatically. Yes I know how to resize them but 90% of my posts are one on an iPad and resizing manually is a PITA so I refuse to do it. :mad:

    BX25D Float Feature for Snow Plowing

    I guess the Caterpillar 988 and 966 C loaders had a problem to because they did the exact same thing when I was operating them. :confused: Gee just my luck. The Cat equipment I used did it, the Kubota 4240 I had did it, the Kubota 5740 that I have now and the BX 25-D does it. Just my rotten...

    BX25D Float Feature for Snow Plowing

    First of all welcome to the site. Hope you enjoy it here. We have a BX 25-D and the float is an easy system to use. Push the stick completely forward and it should be in the float position. That being said even in the float position your wheels can still come off the ground if the bucket has...

    front wheel fenders

    The fenders don't come as standard equipment on the Canadian Grand L's but some dealers install them before the machine is sold on each tractor. I know that they are not available in the US through the Kubota dealer network because I've helped some of my US friends obtain them. If I remember...
