    BH77 w/ 24" bucket clay

    I have a 16" on my BH77, heavy clay slows it down but it does the job. I would be concerned about using a 24" bucket. May be that a 16" would be overall faster? Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

    Firewood Management

    This chart lists my dry tamarack as weighing 3330 lbs./128 cu.ft. cord. So I'll be loading 1/3 cords max per lift given 534kg = 1137 lbs. I guess best I mount the backhoe on back for a good counterweight! https://forestry.usu.edu/forest-products/wood-heating As pallets are more like 40" not...

    Firewood Management

    Solbergdave what do you think that rack weighs full of green firewood? I like the idea a lot, just don't know how full I could lift it with my b2650 FEL. Capacity 534kg. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

    B2650 exhaust pipe and muffler cracking

    If the issue continues I'm going to have to find a way to reduce vibration, some padding at the pipe mount plate would help, or a short section of flex pipe at the muffler outlet. A little tricky to source such adapters I'm sure. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

    B2650 exhaust pipe and muffler cracking

    As the muffler and exhaust pipe are solidly connected through to the engine I have no doubt the engine vibrates them heavily against their mounts. An option might be to have a short section of flex exhaust pipe between the muffler and exhaust pipe, and/or a rubber hanger or anti-vibration mount...

    B2650 exhaust pipe and muffler cracking

    Thanks for all the feedback. The metal is too thin for a weld so went with brazing both cracks, holding fine so far after a day's this and that on the machine. And $370 for a muffler? USD? If USD then well over $400 CAD, it seems anything oem with these units costs a fortune, and in the case of...

    B2650 exhaust pipe and muffler cracking

    Thanks for the feedback. But common with just under 200 hours on the tractor? I probably messed it up when whatever cracked the tail pipe outside the engine cowling, but it cracked right below its frame mount, which makes sense. But could there have been that much effect up where it joins the...

    B2650 exhaust pipe and muffler cracking

    My exhaust pipe got cracked somehow just below the lower mount point, I guess I hit something, so having it brazed at a neighbor. But when pushing the repaired pipe back onto the muffler I saw the pictured crack at the muffler joiner flange. It was invisible with tail pipe mounted. I'm wondering...

    Given the info, if I eventually get a rotary mower, and go for the 60 inch size, it wouldn't be anything other than Land Pride RCR1260 "performance Matched". Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

    Fyi my b2650 handles my Kubota 63" front mount snow blower just fine power wise. If you want I could post a video of it in action last winter in full depth snow. The PTO also delivers without problem for my new WC68 wood chipper. The tractor is about 1 Hp below what the chipper pto minimum is...

    FIXED - Vague control feeling in BH77 Backhoe

    Checked out the linkages on my 2017 BH77 (on B2650) after seeing your post and sure enough 3 of 4 lower links were loose. The right hand pair - bucket/dipper - were very loose, I took them off easily by hand. Cleaned, thread-locked, and re-tightened, now the controls have much better feel...

    Newby ? Stuck Quick disconnect

    Did you release all pressure on the loader cylinders b4 trying to disconnect? With the bucket in a safe position on ground move the loader hydraulics lever fully left-right and forward-backward a few times and try again. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk

    Loader hydraulics for baler

    Not a baler, but my B2650 snow blower chute direction works off the curl circuit, and raise or lower it with the boom circuit. I usually drop the boom down to float, pushed fully forward clicks into detent, once on a level run. But the curl circuit is different, the chute won't move to the right...

    Loader valve lock wont lock on L2501.

    Mine was quite sticky at first on my new B2650 in 2017. It has worked itself in now, bit still takes a little jiggling to lock. Sounds like yours has more issues than being sticky. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk
