I'm a complete greenhorn when it comes to stuff like this, so I'm hoping to pick the brains of my betters. I have a Kubota B29, a FEL a boxblade, a toothbar, a chain harrow and other assorted attachements I can't imagine being of use in this case. The area in question is shaped a bit like an...

Recently my 3ph is not lowering until I move the lever to the bottom 'stop' (the fast lowering position). It won't lower at all at the first 'stop' (the "inch it down" position) It raises fine. I've tried turning the flow control knob all the way on and off and it has made no difference. Any...

I was checking my fence lines and found a few brace wires that are a bit loose. I'd like to tighten them but the twitch sticks are too long and get caught up in the fencing mesh. Any tricks for how to deal with this?

I'm replacing the fencing along my perimeter. It's 6'6" deer fence with a number of H Braces at the corners and along the longer runs. As this is my first time installing fence I'm unsure how tight to make the brace wires for the H Braces or how to judge if the wires are tight enough. Any advice?

I have a 'Value Leader' Flail Mower from Betstco. I've broken some of the hammer/mulching blades on a hidden rock (ahhh the joys of exploring a new/old pasture). I'd like to find an alternate source for replacement blades. The current blades attach directly to the mower spindle via one bolt...

I've just started using my flail mower to mow my pasture and it's not working how I anticipated it would. Perhaps you can help me improve my results or at least help me realize I was expecting too much... I have 3.5 acres of pasture, PNW climate. It grows fast from April to July: grasses...

Hi all, I've had my Kubota B2920 for a few months now and put 4 hours on it (waiting for the weather to improve, ground to dry out, work to settle down...). So far so good! I have a couple of sections of rutted 'lawn' I'd like to smooth out. It's not high quality lawn, nor do I need it to...

Being on the West Coast of Canada, my options for purchasing implements are limited. The main regional supplier sells two brands of light duty flail mower, Caroni (Italian) and AGRIEase (Chinese rebrand?). The best options for my situation cost $1900 for the AGRIEase and $3700 for the Caroni...

I'm trying to crash course myself into tractor knowledge. I'm about to purchase a Kubota B2920 with a FEL. I have 5 acres, most of which is slightly sloped (almost flat) pasture, with some driveway and garden, and very little woodland or scrub. The soil is gravely (rocky) silty loam, not too...

I'm seriously considering getting a 25-30 HP CUT (Kubota, for geographic reasons) without a backhoe. We live on 5 acres, and are allowed to build a second home, which we'd like to do for rental income. One path I'm considering is purchasing a recycled house that will moved on to the property...

I'm close to making the purchase decision on my first tractor (a B series Kubota) and came across this video while researching. To my inexperienced eyes, the section at around 2m50s looks pretty sketchy... Digging a pond with a Compact Tractor - Kioti CK20s - YouTube

Hi folks, I asked a related question about SCUT/CUT sizes on the general forum, but I wanted to explore the issue in more depth as it relates to Kubota B series tractors. I have 5 acres, most of which is old horse pasture. I'd like a small machine for maintenance and projects: flail mowing...

Hello, I'm sure this has been discussed plenty here already, so links to relevant discussions is just as welcome as specific responses to my situation. I'm considering buying a SCUT or CUT. I have 5 acres, mostly pasture. I can appreciate what a tractor can do for me, but since my 'farm...

I may have the opportunity to purchase either a Kubota B7300HSD '99 or a Kubota B20 1996. I don't yet know about hours on either tractor. I have no experience with tractors. I own 5 acres of mostly pasture. I'm planning to use a small tractor for: moving materials (gravel, wood chips...
