    G1700 G1800 G1900 Battery cable and fusable link position

    The question is if "fusible" means "acts as a fuse" or "link that can be replaced by a fuse". I never understood why vehicle manufacturers routed long cables from the battery through half the vehicle before a fuse box appears. In my humble opinion the fuse box should be right by the battery.

    G1700 G1800 G1900 Battery cable and fusable link position

    Thank you for the hint with the Messicks website. So it is basically a piece of wire. I do not really see the purpose of this device.

    G1700 G1800 G1900 Battery cable and fusable link position

    Definitely a good idea, will do that on mine too. The cable insulation was chafed through in one place already and this is an unfused cable directly from the battery.

    G1700 G1800 G1900 Battery cable and fusable link position

    Hi, thank you very much, I can see now where the cable is routed. The strange thing is though I do not think there was space alongside the engine mount on mine, because this would have been the obvious place. But sometimes you do not see the obvious. Have to look again on Wednesday when I...

    G1700 G1800 G1900 Battery cable and fusable link position

    Hello, the battery cable on my G1900 is not routed correctly and I could not figure out how to route it from the starter to the battery avoiding sharp corners on the frame, the PTO pulley, the front axle and the hot exhaust. Also the fusible link seems to be missing. Could somebody please post...

    G1900 owner manual

    Soooo.... today I spent all day trying to fix the electrics so that I can drive it on a trailer to bring it home. The starter won't work. So I checked the usual switches and found the brake switch faulty. Shorting that did not change anything. It seems all switch signals are going to the...

    G1900 owner manual

    Hi 22R, thank you very much for your offer. I'd say it is likely that I will take you up on it. I have not had much time working on it but I got it running by short wiring the starter and it drives and it cuts the grass. The starter switch should arrive today, so hopefully I can tackle the...

    Hi all, it seems I was celebrating too early. 1 to 1.5 months delivery time and kubotausa.com says "not available". The search continues. Kind regards, Hugo

    G1900 owner manual

    Hello Ktrim, I read here in the forum before and I've been to kubotabooks (and lots of other web sites). The files in the mower section are parts lists. Or am I looking in the wrong section? Kind regards, Hugo

    G1900 owner manual

    Hello, I just registered on this forum. I will get a G1900 end of the week in pretty poor condition and huge hours on the clock and I plan to repair it and use it as the manufacturer intended. I found plenty of workshop manuals and spare parts lists on the internet but what I cannot find is a...
