My BX2200 is approaching 600 hours, used mostly for mowing. However, it has done quit a lot of loader work as well. When I mount my homemade weight bar on the tractor as soon as it is lifted it begins to leak down very quickly. The valve that controls the lift speed, that can be used to keep...

I have a BX2200 with 450 hours. It has just developed an engine oil leak at the front of the engine just above the front axle. I am unable to tell if the oil pan is leaking or perhaps the main crankshaft seal. I'm hoping the oil pan gasket is the culprit but fear that the main seal may be the...

After seeing the fold down ROPS on the BX22, I wonder if it would be possible to alter the ROPS on the BX2200 so that it would fold down as well? Anyone had any experience with this? I have several places particularly in my storage building where I have very little or no clearance between the...

\"TOP\" Position on BX2200 MMM height selector I have never been able to get the height selector on my BX2200 in the "TOP" position, which I understand keeps the mower in the full elevated position even if the lift goes down. While doing my 50 hour service I had the MMM off and noticed that I...

I understand that Kubota makes two different grille guards for the BX series. A front bumper/weight bracket and a plain grille guard. I am wondering if anybody has either of these and if so a picture would be much appreciated. Thanks, TomPh

I need information concerning the total amount of weight that comes with the weight kit for the front of the BX2200. Also I am considering making a grille guard incorporating a device to hang weights on. Has anyone done something similar and if so any pictures would be much appreciated...

Have just purchased a new BX2200 but haven't taken delivery of anything yet except the owner's manual. In the pre-purchase discussion with my dealer he told me that the mid PTO and the rear PTO could not be operated simultaneously. However, as I pour over the owner's manual for the second time...
