    Poor (removed). Your pal can't even appreciate the catfish mouth. From the boys that put HF start on a toilet comes: DIAL-A-LECT! You can tone down the sass of dem forum boys who dun talk da way dey ain't 'sposed to.

    Esab, Lincoln or Miller

    Quoting you is exhausting, so I'll keep it brief. Still not up to my standards. For the beginner hobbiest, I'm sure it's fine. I'm sure it won't kill anyone or take someone's mom out to dinner and not call the next day. It's still not there yet. Keep trying, you'll get it someday. You are...

    Backhoe  B3200 w/ BH77 ideal weight for excavation

    Howdy y'all. I'm currently running a B3200 w/ a BH77 hoe / 12" bucket. Soil conditions here are somewhere on the order of caliche and claypan. If I take my time and do a lot of light scratching and flaking of the soil around 1-2" at a time, I can usually get about 30" deep before I'm just...

    Esab, Lincoln or Miller

    Let's look at the innards of one of the imported welders. To protect the the innocent, I will not name brands. Now, let's look at the innards of a comparable blue / red / yellow rig -- again, not naming names. You don't need to to be a 'lectrical engineer to see a difference in quality...

    3-Point Hitch 3pt hitch parts/kit needed

    Just wanted to chime in here. I had to replace the entire hitch assembly on my B3200 because some enterprising meth-head decided to steal mine. Long story short, those $200-300 hitch kits are pure garbage. After five minutes of any kind of work, they bend and break. Ask me how I know...

    B3200 won't crank

    Well sure enough, she just needed a little extra attention. I followed the above advice and had to repeat the same actions a few times. I finally got her to click + crank and start up. In the end, the order I followed is this: - Try starting (in seat, foot on clutch pedal), if no luck -...

    B3200 won't crank

    Let me preface this post with the fact that I did search the forum and ran through some troubleshooting steps previously provided. I wanted to create this thread to document all of the troubleshooting steps required and hopefully include some photos if they help. Issue: 2013 Kubota B3200 won't...

    Howdy from Placer County

    Just a quickie howdy to introduce myself before I go straight to the forums asking question without using the search function. My primary ride is a 2013 Kubota B3200 w/ loader and BH77 backhoe. Over the years, she has treated me well, considering I ride her hard and let her sleep outside...
