That may have to be a slot, rather than a hole in the hood for the exhaust pipe to come thru... unless the hood doesn't open the same way on the newer BX's as it does on my BX24. Pete

Yup, we need more details... Is this tractor new to you ? Is the lift lever locked up or down ? There is a mechanism to lock the lift linkages in the lowest down position for when you need to remove the deck... see the height adjust knob, next to the lowest position is a lock symbol. The...

Lift pump normally does run all the time, you should hear it as soon as you turn the key on, before you start the engine. It is a low pressure pump, to supply fuel to the injection pump. Did you have the hose off and verify fuel flow when the problem was present, ie with below half tank level...

I've had my TG1860G since 1998... still running strong. my electric power steering quit when the tractor was about 4 years old, at the time dealer wanted over $900 for the control unit. Been running with out P.S. since, don't miss it at all... turning the steering wheel is easy enough that I...

Ditto. Hydrostatic transaxle repair could run into the thousands of dollars... Fifty bucks extra every few years brings some peace of mind. Pete

In my Kubota TG1860, I switched to synthetic motor oil... more responsive in cold weather when snow blowing, and less hydrostatic whine. No troubles after 10 years. Pete

Hi... I have had my TG1860G since 1998, have over 1300 hours on it. My hydrostatic transmission whines a fair bit... sometimes more when cold then after it warms up. I use it for mowing about 2 acres and snowblowing a 200' driveway. In other words, I don't think you have anything to worry...

if the deck belt & 3 blade spindles rotate OK, then maybe the idler pully for the belt that pops off has seized. check that it rotates freely, and remember that it will be on the left side of the belt, not on the right side. Pete

I'm sorry I don't have any advice to help resolve your problem, but I don't like your description of what normally happens when you engage the PTO. On my BX24 when I engage the PTO to the MMM, I do not get a 'LOUD' clunk. That would certainly not be normal on my tractor. Pete

I suppose the amount of added stress on the wheel bearings would depend on what kind of tractor activity you feel you need the extra width for... With my BX24, I needed to dig an existing 100 yard trench 1 foot deeper. Not wanting to chance a cave-in due to the rear tires getting close to the...

I put 4" per side spacers on my BX24 so I could straddle/clean out a previously made trench that had partially collapsed/filled in. This widened the space between the rear tires so that I wouldn't risk a further cave in. I removed the spacers when that job was done, so as not to stress the...

maybe I'm stating the obvious, but you've got to steer the trailer in the direction you want it to go... steer the tractor in the direction opposite to what you want the back of the trailer to go... it takes a bit of practice, and as others have said, it is easier with a longer tongue. Also...

susiQ, I have my 2746 attached & working. If yours is the A model, it should be labelled TG2746A. My unit is just TG2746. Is there anything specific you need help with ? I have the Operator's & Parts Manual, which helps a bit. One big issue is to follow the proper procedure in removing the...

I feel your pain, I bought a used TG2746 (not A) blower a few years ago, and it took me a while to figure it out... even with the user manual and parts guide. Your setup is a bit different than mine, I couldn't find your user manual online, but maybe the online parts diagrams will help...

so, you want to get an extra set of wheels/tires just so you can keep the chains on one set ? In my book, it's just as easy to install/remove chains as switching out wheels. just my opinion. Pete

i seriously doubt that mmm was used on a Kubota B21. If I remember right, a B21 does not have mid PTO. Pete

Being as how this machine is new to you, just wanted to verify you are not pushing the loader control forward all the way to the 'float' position... On my BX24, essentially the same tractor from the loader point of view, I can push the control forward, or right, past a normal stop... to the...

Hi... while 1200rpm might seem a high idle speed, especially for a car engine, it is not high for a 1 or 2 cylinder small engine. My Kubota TG1860G gas 2cylinder Kawasaki engine idles at about 1200rpm. This machine did not come with a tach, but I added one...

I grew up in south-west Ontario, about 30 miles from Detroit, and have lived near Toronto since 1969. It pegged me at Detroit, Buffalo and upstate NY. Pete

lowering the lift links on each side is as easy as unhitching them from the storage tabs on the frame... unless you did not follow the proper procedure of locking the lifting mechanism at the lowest point before disconnecting the linkage. This procedure is on pages 19 and 20 of the Operators...
