    I do most of my own maintenance on my vehicles and outdoor power equipment and plan to continue this trend. I have most tools I would need, but I may need to get different filter wrenches or a nicer grease gun as I anticipate I'll be using a grease gun significantly more often. It seems the...

    I just had to Google what a rotary hoe is. So, use that to break up the sod to make scooping easier? I like it! I had planned on buying a tiller, but that's probably a couple years out as I need the grind stumps first to have room for a garden.

    Honestly, I didn't price up the LX2610SU. If I were to go LX I'd go with the regular version as I want to maintain a mid PTO so I have the option of a front snowblower in the future. My home is presently in a small pocket that does not get much snow, but 20min in any direction usually gets a...

    I will use the loader to scoop some sod and prepare for landscaping. Not an all the time job, but that's where I was thinking a toothbar may come in handy.

    Realized I didn't post an update here. Went back last Friday and brought my SO along. It had started snowing so we didn't sit on either the B or LX, but looking at the LX next to the B there really is a jump in size and the B was already at the top of my budget. In fact, I increased the...

    Kubota ballast box improvements

    I want to be able to have one or two chainsaws, fuel, oil, can't hook, and an axe. I also want to be able to pull a trailer and have it be flexible so I could put a rake and shovel in when I'm not sawing.

    Kubota ballast box improvements

    Looks great! I’ve been looking for ideas as I need a ballast box, and want it to have some other function in addition to ballast.

    Kub introduces new models

    Saw these and they look nice, but are more tractor than I need. Otherwise I’d be really looking forward to them.

    Yeah, I think the pedals on most are opposite what one might expect after driving a vehicle. I know I've driven a few different tractors with side by side and I think on most of them I've confused the pedals once or twice. I know I did the first time I drove one, a 1025R and I was able to move...

    Mike, thanks. I watched a couple YouTube videos and need to go back and try some of the other methods of using the treadle pedal.

    I've tested the machines. Both are similar, the B is slightly smaller than the SA325, and likely either will meet my needs. I may test the LX and price one up before making my final decision as it looks like that might be a closer comparison to the SA325 size wise. Side by side pedals seemed...

    I am open to looking at the LX2610. The dealer initially said B or L series, but when comparing a B2601 next to I think a L3301 there was a pretty big size difference and I kinda ruled it out. I now realize the LX2610 is not much larger than the B01 and sits between those two. It looks to...

    Yes, I own a Cub Cadet XT2 lawn tractor with fabricated deck and EFI engine. I also have an older Wheel Horse 312-8 garden tractor. It's a work horse around my property. I have a receiver hitch on it and will pull my 4x6' utility trailer loaded with firewood and my splitter around my...

    Pedal well? I'm not quite positive what you mean. I did notice comfort changed depending on seat location as well as steering tilt. Before buying,I plan to test again with my SO so she can test too. Thanks for the insight on ballast. I was leaning towards a ballast box that would also allow for...

    Second Update: Dealer called earlier this week to say they still were waiting on the R14 tires, but were able to make a deal with another dealer to have another B2601 transferred to them that had R14 tires. They swapped tires for me, we went in to sign paperwork and they delivered the tractor...

    Firewood Cart

    New here and don't yet have an Orange Tractor, but I pull my small utility trailer with my garden tractor. The trailer has taken a beating as a tree fell on it after a storm last year and I have yet to "fix" it. LOL
