    Everything Attachments Price Increase

    I hear I'm considered a crusty charter-passenger too.... Oh, wait....there's a plane involved. :unsure: I was thinking of riding with my wife driving..... 😲🥴

    OK I put together

    Skeets - that looks like a nice tank/pump setup! Like I said before, the Moline fill is gasoline, on top. It's well over 5 feet up there. Made a huge mess last time with a 5 gallon can.. Hoping I can still use a 5 gallon can, sitting on the loader frame, and pump up to it with one of...

    Test driving

    It's been many years, but I stopped at same dealership twice and he freely offered a drive of one on the lot. I did finally buy one years later from there.

    OK I put together

    Keep drum out of the sunlight.... I bought a little 2+ GPM 2-D battery pump to get gas into the Moline without making a mess....it was SO easy 30 years ago....

    New Laptop - setup questions

    Guys - I appreciate the recommendations. Don't take this as a closed book....offer away if you have more! My next question is Anti-virus...SIL said Windows Defender is good for now (I verified it's fully enabled). What do you suggest for Anti-virus, or is Defender okay long-term? Someone...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Just a follow up. Did a test on the old ‘Moline from a diluted spray bottle of the ZEP Degreaser Concentrate, and this stuff works well. Didn't spend much time on it...just a test. Didn’t do a before picture, but this is much better than before.

    New Laptop - setup questions

    I'm a novice, so be gentle. I just got a Lenovo 2-in-1 blah, blah, blah machine to replace our antique Dell laptop. Using it right now. My IT SIL spec'd it. Pretty capable machine, according to SIL. I've bugged SIL a lot lately. I bought another HP from Amazon that didn't work out. He got...

    BX23S HST Fan

    My recollection is that the series newer than mine did not fix the replacement issues. Odd thing is that in older BX tractors it was much easier.....Kubota made it more complex with “better” tractors, yours and mine included. She’s a great mechanic. She can do it, whatever it takes. Was just...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I’ve heard that many times for mowers and blowers. Never tried it, but I’m not sure if I can do that...my farmer buddies might laugh at me... :oops: I wanted to mention I used Zep Industrial Purple Degreaser on the top of the deck. $10 for a gallon of concentrate. Worked very well. Thinking...

    BX23S HST Fan

    Not my BX2360, but a friend just bought a used BX23S TLB with 2-300 hours. I recommended she check HST fan while doing full service on it. HST fan is stripped of the fins. If my memory serves, Kubota did not rectify the complicated HST fan replacement issues with the BX23S...i.e, still need...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Finished cleaning up deck. Changed gearbox, etc. Doesn’t hold a candle to B737’s job, but got some junk out from the spindles. I wasn’t smart enough to have a new belt on hand. Need to mow shortly, so hopefully it’ll last another year.

    Recent visit to Lowes noticed they had small rolls of electrical tape in many colors.

    Sawmilling

    So true....farm boy, restaurant cook, shade tree mechanic. I've shed a lot of blood. Real good at getting myself bandaged up. When I'm bleeding, my wife will ask how she can help. I tell her get the friggin' bandaids out of the wrapper.... :oops:

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    737 - you must be from Connecticut, Massachusetts or New Jersey.... 🤔 Everyone round these parts knows the diff between NH and JD yellow..... JD is more "yellow" than NH...Cat is more orangy, and Prarie Gold belongs to Minneapolis Moline.... Just poking fun - - I know you're from NJ...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Primed and painted bottom of mower deck. Far from quality work, but had a lot of bare metal. I’m color blind, and my wife isn’t home....is the color a close match???? :unsure: Just kidding.....had 2 rattle cans of New Holland Yellow on the shelf, and it’s the bottom of a mower...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    737 - - - looks like my many iterations on my own driveway over 30 years. My wife would literally sink in years ago. You did a great job!
