    Front loader for a B7200

    Pieces of cardboard and thumb tacks worked for me to play with the geometry of a hydraulic actuator.

    Front loader for a B7200

    I think the bottom point closer to the tractor (when bucket is up, start of your video). This way you get a better angle when the bucket is fully tilted forward. Not too much though so that it does not affect the bucket up angle too much.

    Need Advice (Desperately)

    Not sure if engine can be started (damage?) and how the forks are designed, but if you could put those down and tips slightly into the ground they could act as skids and take the weight of the front. If the forks can be lifted up by hand that would nor work, but maybe there is a way to tie them...

    BX25D/BX23S Swivel Seat problems

    Hi, I got that from a parts diagram on messicks.com Kubota has similar parts catalogues online, but I cannot open them from my location. You say 240 is missing, but this is the bar you move in the video. Is that really spring loaded pushed downwards at the front? If yes, maybe the hooks are...

    Looking for “Black pipe dope” advice………...

    A friend of mine is plumber for the past 40 years. He tested all kinds of material for tapered thread gas pipes. After assembling them he opened the threads and re-tightened. The worst was Teflon tape, liquid sealers were kindof acceptable and by far the best was ..... drumroll here ..... hemp...

    Front loader for a B7200

    My thoughts: more surface area for clay / soil to stick to. If you have sandy soil this should not be a problem. Reinforcement on the outside would not have that disadvantage. And a nice round shape has a lot of inherent strength already and a good solid front edge would be my preference.

    DIY press brake

    What is the pressure of your tractor hydraulics pump? With 200bar two 80mm cylinders would give you 200kN. I wrote it before, for bending round shapes I think slower is better. But then, maybe you are working on a sheet metal rolling machine already :giggle: And you do not want to produce 200...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I think this is not trivial and you cannot look inside the rock what structure is there. And yes, maybe not optimal but not wasted either, you got a chunk off. You will get it done (y)

    BX23s rear differential replacement.

    They assemble everything and then it gets a coat of paint. Was the same on my tractor (built around 1990), some parts got no paint, but mainly aluminium, so I'd say this was done intentionally. Was doing some repairs on a friends 2016 Kubota L1. Bare metal brackets bolted onto the frame and...

    New member, and new owner of a L2502HST

    That is the problem, it will be hard to use it because it is so new and shiny. I tell you what: you put this tractor into a glass cabinet in your living room and you buy a well used one for the work. :ROFLMAO:

    Lube Survey

    I use Lidl 15W-40 Diesel engine oil for the engine and Kubota SUDT hydraulic oil for the HST and Kubota filters for everything (come all together in a service kit at a good price). I could not find any of the oils mentioned in the operators manual and the Kubota oil was reasonably priced.
