For size reference, this is the BXM32 on a Kubota B2410.

I'm a recent entry into hunting. Only being doing it for about 5 years. I have always loved being outdoors and this is a very natural extension. I was hunting yesterday with a friend. We passed on a young spiker buck and a few does...since this was a bonus day as I'm taking a week off soon...

I think it looks quite a bit better than what I had to deal with after "the incident" :thumbsup:

Then, I laid out the rest of the pieces to ensure I put everything together in the right order. I completed the installation and pinned everything in it's place.

I took out the pins holding the lift arms on, loosened the bolt holding the main pin in and knocked it out to free the ends of the old turnbuckle stabilizers. In order to put the new end on, I had to be able to push the pin back through the frame. The left rear tire was in the way, so I jacked...

I recall from some old threads on TractorbyNet that the B2710 and B2910 had an option of the telescopic style stabilizer and that there was an online option to get the setup as a kit. I found the kit at Telescopic Sta Bar Set (for "B" series) but unfortunately, Kubota does not allow them to...

Well, I sure made a mess out of my turnbuckle stabilizer on my 3PH. :mad: I had a large hook on my drawbar to allow me to pull harrows down my driveway. I went to hook up my chipper/shredder and didn't take off the hook. I lifted the 3PH a bit to get it into place and immediately felt...

Yamaha Grizzly 550. Haven't had it for long, but I am sure enjoying it!

I pulled this one off my game camera this morning. Pic is from a few days ago.

I've been thinking about getting a chipper or chipper/shredder for a number of years. Been keeping up with the various posts on here, and eyeing them every year at our local Farm and Ranch show. This year the black poplar fluff put me over the edge. I decided it was time to pick one up and...

I'll preface this by saying I do NOT have mechanical inclinations :ashamed: I'm good at changing oil and doing minor things on my "acreage truck" but that's about it. It is a 1995 Ram 2500 that I bought used a few years ago. I never used to drive it much other than around town to pick up a...

Well it looks like we're going to have the second worst 3 or 4 day string of April weather on record. Only 1954 was worse. Highs of below zero (Celsius) and snow. I've attached a few pictures for those of you who would enjoy this ;)

I've been eyeing a potato plow for a while. Seen lots of folks on here who have used them with varying degrees of success. I picked up a Kodiak make. You can check them out at Kodiak I tried it out on the garden today, just to see how it would work. It pulled itself down very nicely and...

Hello North Carolina Here we are in the Stanley Cup Finals. Nice place to be eh? Sadly our Roloson is out for the rest of the series which puts us in a bit of a bad position. I'm hoping that we can compensate and pick up the game a little. The Premier of Alberta has a bet with the NC...

Alberta in late December and we're on the plus side of 0 (Celsius of course ) Only a very light dusting of snow remains and with the +5 to +10 degrees we're expecting over the next couple of days, it'll go too. Just doesn't seem very festive. So much for snowmobiling Merry Christmas...

I've been considering purchasing a generator for backup emergency power for our place. They are not cheap as I'm sure you all know. Is there any reason not to consider a welder that is also a generator (or a generator that is also a welder) such as the Miller Bobcat 225 ?? In CDN dollars...

Well I finally got the impact socket & adapter I needed to remove the old blades on my KK rough cut mower. I knew they were bad....but now I'm pretty at how bad the blades really were. No issues with replacing them and a little bit of test mowing shows that new sharp blades cut a lot nicer...

Hello, I have the RCK60-24B 60" MMM on my B2410. I've never bothered to pin it up and just remove it when I need 3PH functionality. However, for the duration of having the mower I have "put up" with the mower not lifting in a level even fashion left/right. It has also not lifted high enough...

Well in typical Alberta fashion, spring has dealt us a hard blow. We've lived the last 24+ hours under a heavy snowfall warning. It was pretty dry and brown a week ago with most of the snow melted. But that was back when it was winter. Now it is spring and I had the chance to put the rear...

Got to say, I'm a big hockey fan. Grew up playing it and love to watch it. However, I've been very irritated by the recent developments and I'm having no trouble finding things to do instead of watching "Hockey Night in Canada". Anyone missing it? Kevin

Hi all, Well without berating my lovely wife too much , she attempted to used the Kubota today. She forgot about the glow plugs and when things didn't quite fire up right, she pushed the hydrostatic pedal like a gas pedal . After that she called me at work to tell me it wouldn't start at...

I've had minor issues with my front turf tires for a while now. Recently the minor issue is that just about every time I go to use the tractor either one or both front tires is very low. I've checked the tires and the side walls have small bulges in them. Almost like weak points allowing the...

Hi there, Can any Texans offer comments on living in the Houston area? Are there decent sized acreages (10+ acres) anywhere near a 30-40 minute commute to downtown Houston? Or is that completely unreasonable? Any recommended "suburbs"? Comments appreciated. Thanks, Kevin

Is there a hiccup in the system? of am I the only one getting really weird SQL errors. This whole day has been hit or miss for me. Thanks, Kevin

I guess you are thinking of the MT 200 series. You should be able to track them down at: <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.challenger.agcocorp.com/>MT 200 Series</A> Kevin

Hi all, We are finally enjoying some decent snow here in Edmonton. I've had the opportunity to get some seat time over the last several days pushing snow around. Although I am having no trouble clearing the driveway and turnaround area wide enough to leave lots of clearance, it would be nice...

Well it is slowly coming together. Last year I whipped up a 12' x 16' shed to store the tractor in. It worked well, but I needed more room for a skidoo, implements and a workshop. Decided to build a double detached garage. This is a brief photo journal to date. This first shot is not very...

Hi all, Well we are finally into summer here (it is 31 degrees Celsius today) and the garden is up an growing well. Thought I would post a few picks. Funny how we were reading about Bird harvesting in his garden what seems like 4 or so months ago!!! Anyway, this picture is of the garden back...

Hi all, Thought I would report on the first use of the MMM on my B2410. My newly seeded lawn had finally reached the point where it was really starting to look shaggy and needed "a little off the top". I took the time to grease all the zirks on the mower and pto shaft even though in theory...

Hi there, Thought since we had such a nice day here, and I managed to get a little tractor time I'd show a few photos. Didn't get a chance to wash down the Kubota before the photos but it wasn't toooo dirty. This first pic is a side shot of my tractor. Kevin

Hi all, Has anyone ever looked at the Rankin Equipment "Top-N-Tilt Kits"? They have them specific to tractor make and models with "cylinders specially designed for your tractor". Apparently these kits are without hoses though. I'm just wondering if anyone has seen these kits or knows if they...

Hi all, I know the families of the Canadian soldiers killed in Afganistan by friendly fire would appreciate all thoughts and prayers. They are from the Edmonton Base, so our city...and indeed the country, is mourning. It is a tragedy for soldiers to die in battle, but even more so when it is...

Well, two days ago here in Alberta we were sitting at 16 Celsius. The sun was shining, the snow was rapidly melting and I was busy repositioning the gravel on the driveway with the rear blade. Today, however, it is currently -3 Celsius and we've had over 6" of snow fall in the last 12 hours or...

Well, it was Edmonton's Farm and Ranch show this week. I must confess to being a little disappointed that it lived up to its name! Last year it had a lot more compacts, implements and other goodies for the small hobby farm/acreage types like me. Much less this year. It was really geared to...

Well I broke down and bought a digital camera, so I thought I would post a photo I quickly took as I was attempting to figure out how to use this thing . I'll see how it works and if it's ok I'll post some more. Kevin

Found a web site for a company called OFAB that makes heavy duty rotary cutters. They have a 6min promo video that you can check out at their <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.ofab.net/rotarycutters/videotour.htm>website</A>. I just thought it was kind of interesting. Way too much for my...

Sure wish I could walk into a local store in my area and see an inventory like the product list on this web site <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.gripwel.com/index.html>Gripwel</A> Unfortunately they are in INDIA!! Some of those items would sure be useful if I could get them locally. Kevin

Hi all, We are considering a pole frame constructed garage/workshop/storage shed. It hopefully will look similar to the picture here <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.barnsbarnsbarns.com/noff/elmridge.html>Pole Barn </A>. The issue is this. We have vinyl siding on our house and would like...

Is it just me....or is this a really dumb plan? <A target="_blank" HREF=http://store1.yimg.com/I/chi-america_1664_4008112>Backhoe/Loader lift </A> Then to advertise it on your website....ouch!!! Kevin

Time Flys When You\'re Having Fun! Just noticed this morning that my number of posts was at 299...one away from the 300 Platinum Member level. Not sure how that happened as it sure doesn't seem like I've posted that much. But I thought, "What the heck, might as well make it 300!" Sure has...

Hi all, I have a problem with the swivel on the top of my King Kutter rotary cutter. The bolt that goes through the top link is held on by a snap ring (pin with a ring on it) which I believe is standard. The problem is a couple of days ago I was mowing and "felt" that something just wasn't...

Hi all, I just got through moving and spreading 10 loads of topsoil (120 cubic yards). All went well and the place looks much better even with just nice dirt...can't wait for grass!!! Did have one problem that I would like some input on. Occasionally (about one in three dumps) when I had a...

Hi all, Thought I would give a brief review of my opinion on the rotary cutter I just purchased. I finished up rough cutting the last of about 6-7 acres yesterday. I purchased the 60" cutter after much hesitation as the B2410 is suggested to only run a 48" cutter. I am very glad I chose the...

The manual for the B2410 says to use regular multi-purpose grease to grease the battery terminals during the "greasing portion" of the tractor checkup. Being a complete tractor rookie....I have a few questions about this. First, is this done just to "weather-proof" the battery connections...

Hi all, Hoping you can help me with a problem I've encountered. I bought a King Kutter rotary cutter yesterday. After setting it all up and attaching it to the 3PH of my B2410, I found I have very little clearance from the ground at full height. I could adjust the rear height with the top...

My B2410 is bleeding also....just like Jezebel!! Fairly steady drip from one of the valves on the loader control box. Don't think it is too serious, but I called the dealer to schedule a check up. They will be picking it up tomorrow morning and fixing up everything immediately. Other than...

Finally took delivery of my new B2410 last night. Looked awfully nice pulling in the driveway. Didn't have too much time to use it but I did manage to use the FEL to fill in a small hole that had been left after the house construction. My only comment is that I sure hope I get better with the...

Well the only person on here I know is from Texas is Bird...I'm sure there are others. Just wondering if you are following the NHL playoffs as the Dallas Stars are playing our boys (Edmonton Oilers) . Not quite like "the good old days" when Gretzky and Kurri used to keep us entertained, but I...

Just had the local Farm and Ranch show here in Edmonton. One of the companies represented had a very interesting product. I'm sure there are variations of it available on the market, but I thought I would point you to the specs for interest sake. They had a video running at their booth and...

Thought I would take the liberty of posting to the "Kubota Owning" forum since I am now official an owner. Just purchased a new B2410 which will hopefully be delivered within two weeks. For those who like the details, I got the LA352 FEL, the 60" mid-mount mower, and turf tires. Got the...

Hi all, Still in the hunt for the right tractor for my needs. Looking at the TC25 or TC29 as an option. The local dealer has a TC29 with an Allied loader on it that he is interested in selling to me. I indicated that I was not interested in that combination as I prefer a belly mower and the...

We just built a new house on our 10 acre parcel of land. We are very happy with the house, with the exception of one thing. We built on a fairly high spot of the land, but the builder's foundation sub dug the basement I would say about 1-2 feet too deep. Thus although I am not concerned about...

Hi All, In my travels looking for "the perfect tractor", I have been checking out Orange, Green, Blue and Red (Massey Ferguson). However...it appears there is a new red series coming out. Apparently they are not yet available in my area. The Case DX series is apparently very similar to the...

Hi all, I'm doing the compare between New Holland, Kubota, John Deere and Massey Ferguson. Got the "glossies" for all except the Kubota I'm looking at and the dealer was closed (on a Saturday??). Can anyone tell me a few specifics I'm trying to compare on? On the B2410 what is the weight of...

Hi all, Anybody have any comments on the use of a FEL with a mid-mount mower still attached? Is there enough clearance still to do the regular stuff? What about using a tiller? Mower in the way?? I've been told that the mid-mounts are much better "finish" mowers and easier to manouver...but...

Just wanted to take a quick poll to see if there are any other Canadians following this forum. Always kind of nice to find out if anyone is a little closer to you geographically. I'm located in Edmonton, Alberta. Anyone else around???

Hi everyone. Only recently came upon this discussion forum. It has been very educational for me...a relative rookie to the tractor world. I recently purchase a Cub Cadet 7195 (19 hp, 4wd, hydro). It has only 18 hours on it. I am considering purchasing a FEL for it, however after reading many...
