I have a BCS 735 with an 8hp Honda GX240 and want to use it to clear land to build trails. The land is rough, full of rocks, sand, gravel and clay and it’s hilly. The first job is cutting and breaking down the sagebrush, pine, serviceberry, wild rose, sunflowers and cheat grass. Lots and lots...

I have a BCS 730 with 8hp kohler magnum and older spline shaft sickle bar and snowblower which I use with an adapter. I am looking to buy a Grillo 85d which I want for its 10hp kohler command pro and locking differential. I want to confirm that I can use the BCS sickle mower as is on the...

A few years ago, I purchased a brand-new BCS-738 Powersafe with Honda GX270. I reckoned that buying a new tractor, not a second-hand one, might be a life-long investment with my little use in a garden. Now, when the warranty expired, I see how was I wrong. From day one tractor had an oil leak...

I have finally got all the parts organized, inventoried and some listed on eBay. Are you looking for parts to older BCS or Mainline two-wheeled tractor or attachments? Let me know what you’re looking for and I’ll see if I have it. All these parts are for the older machines, pre 1989 (most...

Is the BCS powerful enough to run the brushhog? I read I would have to buy the quick hitch and PTO.

Clutch won't seem to disengage. Clutch cable pulls tight but to no effect. Someone suggested that after sitting unused for a while with clutch engaged - as in storage for a long time - clutch discs, cones or whatever is in there may rust/corrode together. Any comments on this? Thanks, Beetgrower

Hi! I have a Bcs 740 walk behind tractor with a berta 2 stage 85 cm snowblower. The Bcs is spinning a lot on snow with the heavy blower, so I have bought studded snowchains to improve traction. The chains should fit the small 5" x 10" wheels according to the seller. The included documentation...

Hi folks, after looking at wood splitters as per this thread: BCS branded wood splitter? I have been wondering if anyone has set up their tractor to run a splitter or other implement that would be freestanding but utilize the PTO via an adaptation to link to the hydraulic pump. Since the pump...

I need a wood splitter and am trying to choose between ponying up $$$$ for the Wallenstein manufactured unit or looking for a good used splitter that will have a dedicated engine (preferably Timberwolf as they are local). The Bell unit offered by Earthtools is not very appealing- very low...

Hey Guys, i am not sure i write in the correct category but I have to ask. I recently bought a BCS monoculture and don't know which model it is. I couldn't find the correct version, maybe you guys have more experience. Best Regards

Hi everyone, new to the forum, hope you can help me solve a problem with my BCS. The wire that is going from the sparkplug to the electrical cap has been pulled out of the cap. If I just put the cable back in, the motor will start after I jiggle the wire a bit , but once it gets loose, it will...

I'm thinking can a BCS be DIY hitched to a normal road trailer? First I know I can't use the ball hitch. Second I haven't fully committed to the BCS 740 but I'm 95% there. However I've got a decent sized garden on a gentle sloap and can't get the car behind the house, but can get the trailer...

Hy all. I am new to this forum and new owner of an BCS 735 with Acme ALN330wb engine. (I think this is model, i will attach picture with serial) Please help me with the following: Bcs doesn't seems to react when pushing on the clutch. The gears are stiff and engaging with "bad sounds" and even...

I have a bunch of new old stock parts to sell for Mainline, Acme, BCS, SEP. I am starting to get most of the parts that have BCS #s figured out, inventoried and priced. I will be adding parts here in the classifieds in a couple weeks. Acme, SEP and old Mainline part #s are a little bit more...

Hey all, I got a new BCS 749 a couple years ago, immediately attached a BCS flail mower to it, and have been dealing with poor maneuverability ever since. The steering brakes are bad enough that I'd rather just manhandle it to turn -- even when I'm lifting the flail off the ground and fully...

Hey everyone. I have a BCS 780 two-wheel tractor that have been working in extremely dry and dusty conditions for the past several days and the air filter is literally black. It has an oil bath air filter that whenever dirty needs a clean and new oil filled to a certain point. I have two...

hi all, we're borrowing a sister farm's bcs at the moment that recently came back from being serviced. we're needing to do some flail mowing but there's some issue causing the bcs to move too slowly or not at all when the implement is engaged. starts fine, shifts gears fine, has clean oil, full...

Hello everyone. I have a BCS 780 two wheel tractor which is an amazing machine capable of powering so many attachments. Couple of months ago I bought a petrol powered shredder (Jansen gts-2000 pro) but barely used it 2 or 3 times due to its weight and the incapability of moving it around easily...

I have a bcs 850 clutch seems fine but only weakly engages forward and reverse and pto any solutions?

Is an older BCS 201 the same as any rear tine tiller? The 201 cannot have any other attachments than the tiller part. I know a guy with a used one for about 400, but if it's the same as any other tiller, because you don't have other attachments, why not get a newer rear tine? I'm not sure why...

Greetings: I just traded a BCS Diesel 853 Tractor for a BCS 722 for the purpose of downsizing, smaller garden, diminishing muscle mass. The 722 runs fine but I noticed that the tractor won't "pivot" the way the 853 did (one wheel going forward and the other backwards). There is no...

I am looking to buy some 6.5x80-12 wheels for my BCS 740. The official wheels are sadly quite expensive. I find the wheels used on Blitz tractors to look very similar on pictures. Is there anybody that could confirm if these wheels would fit a BCS tractor?

I have a BCS 853 with a Honda engine. We've been getting a ridiculous amount of snow, and I was snow blowing with it and it gradually kept losing power - the snow was being thrown a shorter and shorter distance, until eventually it won't even make it out of the chute and it clogs up. At first I...

hi all, grateful for any advice you may be able to offer. our bcs 732 (w honda engine) is having fuel issues, has been going through gas way quicker than normal and putting out heavy exhaust. we try to run it with only ethanol-free but unf that's been difficult to source lately so it's been...

Greetings all, I've been working with an older BCS model, basically an antique from the 1980s. Mostly I use a rear tiller and a box scraper. I'm looking at getting one of the newer models and looking at attachments, and the rotary plow is pretty impressive. My question is: if you had to pick...

Hi I am considering buying a BCS 700. It comes with tiller, dozer blade and more. And it is presumably running great in engine. But I can find nothing about this specific model. It is not a 720 or 737 , but it says 700 on the engine cover. Are the anyone here who know this model?

Hi, here from Europe. New in the second hand 2 wheel tractor world. I've been looking for a two wheel tractor for some time now for vegetable gardening and mowing of some rough grass and small branches. (We have around 1 1/2 acre). I found a old BCS 745 from 1987 for sale (lombardini engine, the...

As indicated,my old BCS 725 workhorse has seen better days.The issues have stacked up over the years,yet the pto and wheels have always functioned.Ive kept it in one gear at all times-first gear,low-for years.Also,there is a slow leak in one of the wheel seals.But the biggest issue is that there...

I recently picked up a sickle mower for my BCS 722 at auction. I haven't used a front attachment with PTO before on my tractor, and after moving the handle back over the motor, the locking mechanism is still engaged preventing me from using the sickle mower. Is there some pin or other mechanism...

I work for a farm that uses a BCS 853. I was using the Berta Flail Mower this week and the tractor was repeatedly dying within a few minutes of engaging the PTO and beginning to mow, regardless of the thickness of brush/grass, etc. that was being mowed. The tractor would run just fine with the...

Hey everyone. My father has had a BCS 720 Harvester with a sicklebar mower sitting in his yard outside for 5 or 6 years. I finally picked it up last week hoping I can get it back running. Ive stripped off everything I could and oiled and greased, changed out oils, cleaned the carb, etc. I have...

Although I have a lot of work to do outside, I’m stuck inside and I’ve been thinking about two things that I read pretty regularly on this forum and others about outdoor equipment. One is that machinery built 30-40 years ago was much better and that manufacturers should return to that quality...
