kubota bx2200

Anyone bought one of the factory remote hydraulic kits yet for the BX2200? I asked my dealer about it and he didn't even stutter when he said $400! Does the factory unit make use of the extra slot on the right console and place a remote handle there? Does it just T into the loader hoses...

I purchased a demo BX1800 two weeks ago with about 55 hours on it. The dealer did no service to it so I asked them for the fluids/filters. They have not found the owners manual and have ordered one for me and I need to know where to clean the screen out when I change my fluid and filter. Thanks

Hello, How does the BX2200 with 60in deck do in wet grass? I know the sales brochure sales it cuts it with no problem, but what about discharging? Does everything stick to the underside and require constant cleaning? How fast do you need the throttle when mowing? Thanks! Mike-a rookie Kubota owner

Hello, I posted earlier about my new tractor leaking some sort of fluid. The dealer came and picked up the tractor tonight. He checked the hydraulic fluid level and said it was fine. In addition to this leak, I was hearing a whine coming from the rear end. Is this normal from the hydrostatic...

What size box blade are you guys pulling with your BX2200's? Four feet is the size recommended in the manual, but they are rare in this area and PRICEY. I can get a five foot for $100 LESS than the four foot! Am I dreaming that my 2200 can pull this thing in hard clay??????????? Thanks.

Ooops, I accidentally posted this in the general question area. I meant to post it here. Question, I know there are several posts on PHD's for the BX2200's but I just need to know who has the most inexpensive one that will fit? Also curous if anyone sells a 6" auger that will fit? I need to...

I know there are several posts on PSD's for the BX2200's but I just need to know who has the most inexpensive one that will fit. Also curous if anyone sells a 6" auger that will fit? I need to install at least 100 2" steel posts for a rod iron fence. Thanks

This was the only frustration on my new BX so far. We unhooked the PHD and tried to install the rototiller yesterday. After fighting and fighting to get our hands/arms in close enough to try to hook the PTO to the tractor unsuccessfully, son and I took the PTO shield off to get access. Now I...

Any idea what this white wire with the connector does? Do you have one too? Did mine disconnect from somewhere? Any ideas?? Thanks

My tractor was delivered today. NICE. Fit and finish good. Delivery guy covered everything. I dug a post hole just to try it out. Now will read all the manuals. Might even pop a cold one and sit (not operate!) on it and enjoy my learning! Got an FEL, MMM, and Bush hog tiller. Curious...

Hello, I just bought a new BX2200, 60 MMM, 48 Woods Box, & FEL. I have 13 hours on this unit. I have found that it is very difficult to switch between the various PTO's after engaging the PTO and stopping it. Example, I have the PTO lever selected to the MMM only, I engage the PTO, stop it...

I am getting a very annoying vibration noise. Have traced it to the mower height adjustment knob in front of the seat. The shaft is rattling against the frame. The knob will pull off, however the shaft piece has no play to get in there and the hole is so small. Any ideas short of ear plugs to...

Are there any physical differences to distinguish between a 2002 BX2200 and a 2003 BX2200 model year?

Just wanted your opinion about the necessity of cleaning the underside of the mower deck after cutting ,especially with all of the moisture lately...I don't. Will this lead to premature rusting of the deck ?? I never see the "pros" cleaning their equipment after cutting. What do you guys...

hi everyone. i have 22 hours on my new bx2200. i am looking forward to the toys. i have researched this forum and decided on the herd 96. i called the company and they would not recommend it. they said it would not work on bx2200 and recommended a smaller electric unit. it looks like several of...

Greetings. Thanks to all the advice here, I felt confident ordering a BX2200, FEL, MMM, Post hole digger, and 50"bush hog rototiller! I popped $250 for the mulch kit; not sure how well that will work. Inquired about the rear mounted remote hydaulic kit, and it was $450, so I declined that...

The BX2200 on the lot had a NON-Folding ROPS (as I now learn all do). Will the BX22 folding one fit it? I can't get the unit in my shed without folding the ROPS. I have the skills to take a non folding one and make it fold if I have to, which will likely be cheaper than paying for new...

I've read here that some implements don't fit on a BX2200 due to short 3PT arms and that some of you have changed to older model arms that were longer. If I'm buying a new 2200, should I try to get those longer arms right off the bat, and size my implements accordingly? My assumption is...

Looked at a new BX2200 last night. I forgot to look; does this unit have ports for mounting external hydraulic cylinders? Obviously there is something for the FEL, but didn't know if there are others. If not, anyone know which model bigger would have to go to get external ports for remote...

\"Review\": Water Cooler for BX2200 Operator If you're looking for a handy one-person water cooler for your BX2200, try the 1 gallon "Victory" cooler from Rubbermaid. I was wandering through a local Target store this weekend, dutifully following SWMBO from aisle to aisle, when this bright...

New to the board. Great information! I looked at 2 YR old BX2200 with FEL, 54" MMM, and small Kubota Tiller with 160 HRs on it. Seller is asking $12,500. From what I can guess, that is about what he probably paid for the unit WITHOUT the tiller. Since there's few to none of these used...

Hello again, I spoke with my local dealer on Monday who advised he had 2 BX2200's left and 1 60" MMM. I thought I better act soon for the 0% apr and the fact that he advised he is finding it very hard to get the 2200 lately due to much demand. Tuesday I bought it and a FEL, MMM, and 48" woods...

Yep, I know it's early and I didn't get a plow when I got the tractor, figured I could get it later. Now that I'm thinking of it what would I need to get. I have a FEL for the big snows but most of what we get in Maryland is the 2-6 inch type. I think that a manual blade would work great...

Someone at work is selling and I was was wondering if the BX2200 could handle it. I've got about 4 acres I could use it on as well as some path clearing. It's 5 foot cat 1 w/ 540 RPM PTO. Used they want 300 and it's has new shaft bearing seals. I'm kinda new to tractoring and the BX2200...

BX2200 and bushhogging ?\'s about undercarriage? I read somewhere in this forum that fellow owners are having problems damaging the filters on the BX2200 while bushhog work is being done. Seems that the lack of ground clearence causes this problem. I just recieved a call from a customer...

what will be the scheduled maintence hours intervals on a new bx2200? i would want a 60" mmm and a 60" rear blade to mow 3 acres of flat ground and clear snow from a 20'x80' driveway. Thankyou.

I am needing to replace my newly restored JD318 - which I really like, but it is too small for my property, and I definitely need the 4wd for the hilly parts of the property. How does the 2210 stack up? I am quite concerned about the size, as Deere's website shows a turning radius of 7.5 ft...

How much would the yearly maintenance cost be for a bx2200 with a 60"mmm and a 60"rear blade? I'm referring to the 50-100 hour maintenance schedules. Thankyou

I am purchasing a BX2200 Tuesday. I have 10 acres of property in central Illinois, 2 of that is cleared ground that we will break in July for a home, and 8 woods with a 20 foot creek bed halfway back. After speaking with the dealer, I was advised that although he is a major quantity dealer, it...

My local dealer has a 2001 BX2200 with 135 hours and an FEL for $9500. How does that sound? I haven't been in the market long enough to have a feel for the used market. For a new model, I was quoted $12,700 for the tractor, FEL, and 60" MMM.

This one is for all you BX2200 mechanics out there. I tried to add a strobe to my BX today - I have to mow along a roadside at one edge of my property and am tired of drivers not seeing me. This is one with a mag mount that I planned to have sit on the top of the ROPS. To cut a long story...

I think it's great!!! I'm very impressed with the way it mows, and my garden and trees have never looked so good after rototilling. I can drop this thing in the praire and till (albeit we've had a wet spring). I walked through the manual to see how the dealer had set up the deck... it was...

I've been clearing some woods to expand my backyard (will post other photos in "projects" soon) and have been amazed at what this BX can do. First I clear away all the brush, then fall the tree. If the stump is 3" or smaller I just hook up a chain and yank it. For the larger ones like the...

I placed this post here because it is intended, more specifically, for other BX22/2200 owners. There has been many posts regarding PHD usage on the "smallish" BX's. I really needed a PHD and figured I was taking somewhat of a gamble on ground clearance issues, hole size, etc.. Well, I am pleased...

Had a great time Thursday. With all the rain we've had this spring, the back part of my yard didn't get mowed before. The fescue grass was taller than the tractor and seeded out. The MMM was leaving a lot of it uncut, so I borrowed my brother's 60 in. bush hog. He has an International 234 and it...

Just goy my BX2200 w/FEL. The next morning after I cut my lawn, I noticed a pool of oil on the floor under the HST by the left rear tire. Looks like it is leaking from a hydraulic fitting. The place I purchased the tractor from picked it up, said they fixed it, and brought it back the same day...

Is your PTO select lever hard to shift? Mine is very difficult to move between settings. I have to keep engaging the PTO while moving the Select lever or it wont shift at all. When I do that I can hear the grears grind. Doesn't seem right to me. Is there any trick to this? Do you think...

Just went out and found I've got a flat R. front tire. No obvious damage. Can I get a tube in it without taking it off the tractor?? Anybody fix a BX flat yet? Thanks, - Patrick

Can anyone give me info on operating MMM with 3PT attachment. Is there a way to lock the 3PT at top position while mowing so that you do not have to remove 3pt implements while using mmm.

Does anyone have a source for a top link for a BX2200? It should be about 13 inches when closed. Kubota dealer wants $100 for a new one. I bent one side when it hit the wood deck backing into the shed. I did not notice it was down and fully extended. Anyone have a source for just for the rod and...

To all, At times I consider upgrading my older gear drive B7100 to a BX22 or BX2200, with finish mowing being the primary task. I have a B2150 HSD with FEL for larger tasks. A Kubota brand backhoe for my B2150 is more than $7000, while for less than $7000 you can add a backhoe and FEL to the...

I would like to know who has the most hours on their BX2200? I've have almost 100 hours and about 1 year old.

I went out last weekend and dug up my neighbor’s water line with my Caddigger 608. That thing works nice on a BX2200. The run was about 40 feet and we dug down 5 feet with no problems. It was a mixture of sand and gravel. The only thing I did not like is in order to go deep I needed to clean...

I noticed that my tractor was sitting weird and measured the front corners of the frame. There is almost an inch difference between the two!! With the fel on and the bucket resting on its edge, there is almost 3" difference. I'm calling my dealer tomorrow, but has anyone else heard of / seen...

I have narrowed it down to these. They are the "same" price around here and just can't make up my mind. I am getting it with a FEL and MMM. The JD dealer is pushing the 4010 but I like the size of the 2210/2200 better. I have 2 lots. 1 is lawn, 2 is field both totaling 5 acres. The only reason I...

Ok, I'm new to the 2200 and was wondering if it is possible to lower the mowing deck w/out lowering the rear hitch. I was working with a box blade over the weekend and saw an area that I wanted to cut real quick and couldn't see a way to lower the mmm and not lower the rear box blade. Is it...

For months I have been looking for a stabilizer for the cross drawbar on my BX2200. I found one that locked the drawbar to the lower 3PH arm but when I got it home it did not fit. I finally decided to collaborate with a local fabricating shop and came up with the stabilizer shown in the...

With just over 100 hrs now I'm putting the kubota to the test. My son is building a house and I decided that we could dig the basement ourselves, useing a caddigger and the kubota with fel. I figured somewhere between three and four hundred yards of dirt to move. If the kubota passes this test...

Anyone own a GC2300.. I am looking at buying one or the BX 2200 tractor but havent heard much about the GC2300. I like the lower rpm the MF runs at to obtain its horse power but will it hold up in time like the BX does (so i have read)?

I don't know if anybody has had this problem before but it confused the heck out of me for about 45 minutes till I figured it out. There is a plastic molded 30 amp fuse located just above the oil filter in the wiring harness, that when it blows, you get nothing at the key switch. No gauges, no...

What procedure did you use to get your 60 inch MMM on your BX2200 to match the set up in the manual? I am not sure what to measure first and what to move so I do not move one setting and throw another out of whack. It looks like the left front is lower then the rest of the deck, causing a scalp...

BX2200 doesn\'t like the Worksaver 24\" dirt scoop Spent hours looking for a 24 inch dirt scoop, finally found one after a 40 mile drive thru PA Dutch country - sure is beatiful this time of year, and interesting seeing six horse teams pulling large implements. But back to the scoop - 1-can't...

Here are a few questions I have regarding the BX2200. I plan to pick-up a BX2200 w/60" mower and a FEL this weekend (quoted $12,200). 1) I plan to use the FEL very litttle, but I do have a need for one. Should I load the tires, or use rear weights? I would like to remove the rear 3-pt if...

BX2200 HST pedal sticking (it\'s not the pivot) The HST pedal is sticking on my BX2200. It's not sticking at the pivot, which is well greased and easily moved. It's much more noticeable on low range than on high, where you really can't tell. Any ideas? I was sure this was covered in an...

One thing I found lacking on the BX2200 is an area to store gloves and tools. The tractor is so compact that that there are few places to mount a toolbox without interfering with something. Here is one solution that has worked well for me. I went to a local fab shop and had them miter a piece...

Question ? I've read about tooth bars some here and want to know what they help you do??? I'm digging a basment and need to move alot of dirt sand gravel that I have piled up with a back hoe. I know that it is a big job and I am having trouble filling the bucket from the piles. will a bucket...

Hi Folks, I've got another really dumb question! What is that knob below the seat on the BX2200 for? It looks like it might be for hydraulic adjustment to the rear, but I'm not sure. It has a symbol on it that resembles the lowering and raising of the mower deck lever. Didn't see a...

I am interested in purchasing a bx2200 or BX22. Kubota uses the D905-E-BX engine. On the specifications it shows that to achieve 540 PTO RPM it is running at 3068 RPM. That seems to me pretty high. If I have to run this little engine at 3000+ RPM to get work done. How long will engine last...

Hi Folks, I read my FEL manual and have some questions that hopefully some of you experienced users will be able to help me with....... I plan on reconnecting my FEL this weekend and wondered how long you are supposed to sit there and work the joystick to get the air out of the system? The...

I HAVE A BX2200 THAT RAN GREAT UP TO HAVING 25 HOURS ON THE MACHINE. AROUND THIS TIME THE BX2200 WOULD LOSE POWER AFTER ABOUT 45 MINUTES TO 1 HOUR OF OPERATION. I TOOK THE BX BACK TO THE SHOP. THE DEALER HOOKED IT UP TO THE DYNO MACHINE, THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THE BX RUNS GREAT WHEN YOU...

My LA211 seems to lack lift and curl power when loading the bucket from a pile. Does anyone know what pressure the relief valve is set at and where it is located at on the four way valve. ???

Hi folks, I took a couple of days off to get some work done with the bx, and felt that a review of the machine's capabilities here would be helpful for those looking to buy a bx. I ran an old Power King 1618 w/fel for the last seven years(a very early version of a subcut??) on my 5 acres, for...

Anbody know what the BX2200 length is without the 3-point hitch? I am trying to compare the size of both of these tractors, but the BX1500 pamphlet lists the length without the 3-point and the BX2200 pamphlet lists the length with the 3-point. I keep wondering if the BX2200 is too large for my...

I am interested in knowing if I will damage my tractor if I put a chain around one or both of my lower 3 pt lifting arms and attach it to the eyelets that are provided above the pto? I want to lock the rear attachment in the up postion so that I can lower the mid mount mower with out having the...

I've got a 1 year old BX2200 with 100+ hours on it. Yesterday while doing some yard cleanup, I noticed a steering problem: While turning the steering wheel "gently", the tires would not move (left or right). So I'd be doing gentle turns, and continuing straight ahead. There was no undue force...

Well, I'm a bit surprised but I could not find any reference to jacking up the tractor in the manual. Looking underneath, I'm afraid that wherever I put it ma cause damage to the hydro or worse have the tractor slip. The closest thing the manual had was a picture of a strap lifting the tractor...

Hi everyone, This is my first post but I've been reading this forum for over a year, thanks for all the useful information. I started out wanting a BX a year ago and then along came the 2210, my dealer has both in stock so I was able to compare and drive both. Now I'm leaning real hard towards...

I have a question regarding the FEL on a BX2200. I have had mine for 115 hours. Mostly loader work on the new yard, no grass to cut yet. The question is since I've owned it it has acted strange at times, no curl once in a while, that has since gone away, now the biggest problem is that...

I am updating this question because of what I found today when I removed my deck to power wash it. I took the universal off the deck and this is what I observed. The end of the shaft that hooks to the PTO under the tractor I think the universal may be defective. In one direction the universal...

I noticed that Kubota now has a 3 pt weight box for the bx2200. Does anyone know how much weight they recommend to carry?

Hi everyone. Has anyone used a Drawbar with their BX2200? How do I lower my three point hitch to the height that I need for my trailer, but not lower the MMM mount hardware? thank you

I just wanted to post a thank you to all the forum members. I haven't posted much but I've been lurking for over a year now during my decision making. I finally made the decision to buy a BX2200 with FEL, MMM, two sets of tires (bars will be loaded), a toothbar, rear rake and rear blade (both...

I'm taking some advise from my last post about the 60 mmm noise problem I'm having. If there are any BX2200 owners around my area that read this thread please contact me if you own the 60" mmm. I'm sure there is a problem with my unit and I would like to compare with another unit to see if I...

On my BX2200, I have recently noticed that while using my FEL to dig dirt (patio project my better half has me working on), the rear blade attached to my 3 pt hitch will gradually lower over time (takes about 10 to 15 minutes to go down about 3/4 of the way). I have made sure I was not...

I started my BX2200 up for the first time this season last Sunday. It ran perfectly for about forty minutes then the mower started shaking like something was out of balance. When I went to shut the mower down, I heard a bang. I immediately shut the tractor down. When I looked under the...

I recently found this forum and it is awesome ! I have learned a lot from the other posts...and hopefully can benefit from your suggestions. I decided to go with a kubota (this will be my first tractor), but can't decide which one or the attachments we need. I own a 5 acre lot in W. Florida...

I have been trying to find out if there is a backhoe attachment for the BX2200. My dealers says there is one, but can't show me anything about it. I do not want to buy one right now, but the Kubota site only shows a BH for the BX22. Hopefully I will take delivery of my new BX2200 FEL, 60"MMM...

Does anyone have a Midwest RB22 rear blade on a BX2200? I think I would like to have the tilt and especially the offset feature, but I wonder if the BX has enough range of motion for the 3 ph to lift it far enough to be useful? If anyone has one - could you measure how far you can lift it? Thanks.

Hello, group. Have found a deal for a BX2200 w/ 4WD & hydro transmission that is approx. six months old, 120 hours on the clock, ag tires, comes with the FEL and third-party box blade. Seller will take $9800. The only thing holding me back is that 120 hours seems like above average usage for...

The BX2200 with 54 in MMM and Woods Estate Series landscape rake was delivered yesterday, and between the raindrops, I logged more than an hour on the meter. Questions and comments- 1-No SMV sign came with the tractor- is it an extra cost item? (Haven't questioned the dealer yet.) 2-Ordered the...

Well we’ve had quite a winter in the northeast so I assume you guys around here (and other places too, I’m sure!) have had lots of practice refining you snow removal skills. I have a BX2200 on order (should be in by 4/18) so I figured I’d get some tips for next year while it’s still fresh in...

Anyone have info on making their own grille guard for a Bx2200? I am looking into doing this since I don't like the way the factory unit covers the front it's a wide open design. I'm open to all sugestions. Bigguy

Has anyone made a grille guard for thier BX2200. It seems to me that the factory unit is nice looking but, I'm not sure how practical it is for stopping brush and twigs form entering the hood area since it is completely open. If anyone has made this mod or has sugestions let me know. I...

a friend was up and he wanted to try it. this is the first time I have seen it work from anywhere but the seat. makes all the other snow blowers I've had look sick

W O W! Yep, I can't believe I'm contemplating this either, but my need for the loader is quite diminished now and going from a 60" deck to a 54" is a negligible difference (for me). I found a guy with the TG1860 who wants to upsize to a BX. The hours are similar 30 on his 50 on mine (50 Hr...

Finished plowing the drive this AM and noticed a real beautiful green/blue hue on the snow. Seems that the hoses from the engine to the heater were routed a bit too close to the cooling fan for the HST. Bummer! Anyone have any ideas as to the proper routing for hoses for rear mounted heater?

Today while snowblowing the grill that covers the battery Iced up, and caused the temp to rise up to the red line. Glad I was watching the gauges. I don't have a cab so snow blows everywhere when the wind is up. Just and alert that others might want to look out for. over heating is a engine killer.

Anyone have any experience with the mulching kit available for the BX2200? Is it worth the extra cash? Does it work well? What did you pay? Did you install it yourself? Thanks, Jim BX2200 w/ 12 hours an loving every minute of it!!!

Can anyone tell me the length of the BX2200 with the front end loader and box blade attached. I'm getting close to putting up a new building and am trying to see what kind of room I will have once the tractor is inside. Thanks. Adam

I can get a 5' KK back blade with tilt for $230. I know KK may not be the prettiest but they seem heavy duty enough for the BX. I don't see how it would not handle anything the tractor could. Can any other blade come close to that price and still have tilt??

RET I noticed that you have a BX2200 and also had to cut down your PTO for you tiller. I also have a BX2200 and a 44” First Choice tiller. I was wanting to know how much or short the PTO needs to be. How do you know what length to cut the PTO. What do you use to determine what is too long...

As I'm sure you all know, the headlights on the BX are useless with a fel. I'm not sure what they were thinking when they designed the headlights on this tractor but I saw an opportunity to address the problem and I must say it works excellent. The Curtis cab made this real easy since it...

Just installed a TinyTac. After running for about 50 minutes the idle RPM is showing 1260 is that normal. If not how do you adjust the RPMs on a BX2200

bx2200 top \'n tilt Hi folks, I posted over in the attachment forum regarding a Woods gb as against gbc box blade. RaT came back and mentioned top'n tilt. IF I could convince the wife I needed (wanted) it, I'm thinking about doing it. I know I need the rear remote setup for a bx22 that was on...

Ordered the 2200 with the 54 inch mower - 10.2K$ Want to order a landscape rake - any comments on the Woods Estate series - quote was $585 with guage wheels - I guess the price isn't bad - but is the quality OK ?- (Dealer didn't have any in stock, but the Estate back blade that he has looks OK)

bx2200 60\" mmm adjustment My 60" mmm is way out of adjustment. Left side is lower than right. The manual is so dificult to decipher. First of all it seems that all the measurements in mm are missing a decimal point (ie 55mm should be 5.5mm). Anyway it seems that last summer there was a...

Hi everyone, Wife wants a chipper for the new bx2200. A post on another thread mentions that the bx doesn't run a chipper well. Any opinions, insights, info from anyone?? Thanks in advance, DaveL

I've been reading these posts for a few months now and just wanted to give my opinion on by new Bx2200. THANK GOD that I sold my Green LX277 Deere and bought my 'Bota last Oct. before all of the snow!! We have about 36 acres with about 2 of those acres around the house being maintained. My...

I was wondering if anybody ever used a brillion seeder with their BX2200. It is listed at 788lbs. Any thoughts, I have 2.5 acres to plant grass and the local co-op rents this particular seeded. I know the seeder works great and would like to use it. If the tractor can handle it. thanks

Does anyone have a detailed diagram of the quick hitch shoe? I have a hydro blade that I'd like to convert to the quick hitch connector for use on my bx2200. Any info would be appreciated. thanks!

Well it arrived last night around 9pm. Well it has some bent stuff and anything that was broken the guy had parts for us to replace them with. This tractor was used by employees so they really didnt treat it well. Its in perfect body condition and everything just bent up stuff and preatty dirty...

This is the first deisel I have ever owned so I am shooting in the dark here. Is it normal for the tractor to start and run for a few seconds and then stall 3 or 4 times before it finally catches and stays running? When it does stay running I get quite a bit of dark smoke for a few seconds...

Some folks have asked me for more info and pictures of my Curtis cab on my new BX2200 so I thought maybe a new topic would be in order. This cab is the softsided model with the two speed heater. I think list for this package is about $1800 not including installation, which I'm told is a lot...

Someone on another thread was asking for a list of BX attachments that do Not fit on a BX. I thought we should put together a list of attachments we know fit on the Kubota BX2200. Here is what I know works, anyone care to add to the list? 48 inch First Choice Tiller 54 inch Pronovost Puma...

Well, I picked up my new BX2200 today! Here's a picture my wife took of me moving some snow around that desperately need to be moved... Notice the SEG on my face. I think I'm gonna enjoy this!

Ok I like the looks of the 2200 but have read things on here about the low ground clearance and trouble with hooking up attachments on the 3 point hitch. I like it alot more because it's cheaper than the 7500 but I've been leaning towards the 7500 because I think I will add lots of attachments...

I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or concerns about this idea (brain storm)? I took off the smv sign on my bx and was going to mount a metal box using the existing holes for the bracket which held the smv sign. I am going to use it for storing gloves, some tools etc.... any...

Yup, After owning this tractor since 2001, I managed to tip it. I was cleaning up some snow with the FEL. I had no blower on the back...just the rear counter-weight (but it was up too high). I was in a rush and that often leads to trouble. We had hard frozen snow (snow rained on then frozen)...

I am looking to purchase an aerator for my BX2200. I have looked at some but don't know what the owners of BX's are recommending. How about some feedback on this question. I'm concerned about the lifting height and weight limits and the proper width. If you have one how about some help...

Folks, This is my first post in own/operate as I just got my BX2200 yesterday. I have the FEL and may need additional back weight. Others have suggested the 3 pt hitch box or scraper blade but I really don't have a use for them. I seem to recall a post where someone put free weight plates on...

Folks, With a lot of help from TBN I purchased a BX2200 with a FEL and 54" MMM. I posted my research, testing and prices on the PowerTrac forum. You shoul stop in there. They are a great bunch. If you are interested in sub-compacts and prices in NH you can read that post I paid $12,795 (no...

I am thinking about getting rid of my ATV and purchasing a Kubota BX2200. I am young and just got some land and I think this would be a smart move to help me do work around the land. Please let me know if this would be a good tractor to start with and what some fair prices on this machine...

Ok now that Kubota will finance my loader I have just one more question. The dealer I'm talking with gave me a price of $2400 installed. I have been reading some of the posts and have seen prices around $1800 to $2100 for the front loader. What seems to be a ligit price for this implement on...

Hi folks! I already appreciate all the info I picked up on the boards and don't even have my 2200 yet. I agonized between the bx and a 7500 and went 2200 due to the lower center of gravity(I think). I saw a post stating that the bx seems more stable. Is this true? I am mowing 3 or so acres of...

Has anyone else had a problem with the hood popping open while on uneven terain? I believe it is especially problematic with a heavy load in the fel. Is it possible I have a frame twisting issue?

Hello, I wish to send a BIG THANK YOU to all the guys that have helped me with my questions about my tractor. Your answers have been invaluable. I have learned more in the few days since I accidentally found TBN, it is unreal! I have found out that I have the WRONG oil in my tranny, I am using...

Folks, I posted recently about purchasing a PowerTrac vs. my fears of no support. It was a very active post with a lot of good input. MossRoad asked me to post back if I chose other than a PT. I was ready to take the plunge on the 422 and was concerned with the Robins engine and my abilities...

Just a note to those who self service your tractor. I was changing the oil filter on my Bx2200 and failed to notice that the old oil filter O ring was stuck on the side of the engine block. After installing the new filter and refilling with oil, I crank the engine and pumped most of the new...

I put a cab on my BX2200, the inexpensive kind, and when you blow snow the reverse rad. fan sucks the semi-warm air out of the cab-which means it is replaced by cold outside air. I know that I am lucky to at least have a cab, but I have lung problems, and the cold doesn't help me in any way...

Kubota won\'t finance new loader for my BX2200. I have just made a new purchase of a BX2200 ,60"bmm and a Landpride 1560 rear blade. Like most of the east coast we were hit hard by a snow storm a week ago, dumping approximately 30 " in our area. I made it through with just the back blade but...

I have a BX2200 with 11 hours and when using the loader I have a problem with one of the hoses at the control vavle disconnecting itself at the quick connect coupling. This is the hose that is approx. 3 inches long. I find that this usually happens when I have the loader near full height and...

Do they make an add on remote hydraulic outlet kit for the BX2200??? I can't seem to get a straight answer from my dealer. Thank you. Ralph

BX2200 60\" blade Look at my site for more pictures on the 60 inch blade. http://members.bluefrognet.net/~rrwitt1/

I'd like to get a second set of tires and rims for my BX2200. What price (range) should I expect to pay for a set of Bar tires with rims? thx Vin

Hi, I'm new to this forum, found it this past weekend during the snow storm. I thought I would ask opinions of experienced tractor owners to help me in my decision. The decision comes down to which of the above 2 Kubota models to purchase. I have less than 1 acre to mow and have pretty...

Well, after clearing the 30 inches from my driveways and parking area, I am more than pleased with my purchase of the BX2200/FEL/MMM. The tractor performed spectacularly with no problems encountered moving and scraping the snow. My purchase of the FEL (which I thought might be questionable for...

BX2200 60\" blade Here is a picture of the 60 inch blade. Unstopable.

Dealer is pushing 2003 BX2200, $8995 for tractor + $2850 for snow-blower attachment. Claims it $1000 off this month, special deal from Kubota. Sound like a good deal?

Well I read on TBN that the BX air filter strap has been breaking so I checked mine, sure enough it's broken. Right where it mounts to the engine. Is this covered under warranty? I'm hesitant to replace it with another replacement Kubota strap as I know it will break again, wimpy design. Has...

Just wanted to thank all of you for helping me make up my mind between a jd2210 and the bx2200...with all of your knowledge and positive feedback, you made my decision easy. The stork is bringing the orange one by at 10am tomorrow...i am psyched...looking forward to talking to everyone about...

Does Anyone have the front hydraulic Blade with a Bx2200? This one be with the hydraulic angle on it. Any and all insight Anyone could give would be greatly appreciated.

2001 BX2200 with 60\"MMM, 50 Hrs,$9,500 If anyone is interested, there is an add for the above in this Sunday's Green Bay Press Gazzette. Other than that I do not know anything more about it....The phone number is 920-347-0871.

My neighbor is interested in Bx2200, fel, and a rear mount snowblower. He went to a local dealer (right around the corner) and received a quote of 12000 + 8 percent sales tax. Do you think this is a good price or should he compare with JD and Ford/NH. Whats the difference between the BX2200 and...

I'm seriously considering trading my BX2200 in on a shiny new BX22. My dealer has two of them sitting on the lot and gave me a price of 14,500. He wouldn't even give me a ballpark on trade-in value without seeing it, so he will be dropping by next week some time to check it out. Has anyone...

For Anyone who might be interested here is a good looking Cab ,I have no idea about the cost! http://www.800cabline.com/index.html

I have a like new 66" Befco tiller that I used in my business and would like to keep it to use on the BX2200. I have called dealers and asked this question " Is the Befco 66" to large for the BX." Some say it would be ok others say no, but we can sell you a new one. The tractor lifts the unit...

How much weight have Some of You Fellas had on the 3ph of Your 2200's? I haven't used that much on mine and wondered just how much had been used on one.

I'm considering mounting a snow plow from a Cub Cadet super garden tractor or one that fits a B1750 in the FEL bucket of my new BX2200. The cub is a 54" wide manual angle, and the Kubota is a 60" wide manual angle unit. I posted in the customizing section with no response. Anyone in this...

Hello gang, I now own a new BX2200 with about 4 hrs on the clock. All 4 hrs. were spent moving snow here in De where I live with a rear blade Landpride 1560. I owned a TC33D before this tractor . I used it in my landscaping business. It had a custom FEL mount with a six and a half foot Meyers...

Has anyone put AG tires on their BX200? I called my dealer and he said all that was listed was Bar tires, which I think (my limited knowledge) is not as durable. I got a great price on the bar tires with rims $300.00 for the set. I assume that any AG tires would be more narrow and not fit on...

Sold my JD445 to buy my BX2200 w/FEL. (Not disappointed at all) I kept the front blade from the JD to mount on the BX. Father-in-law suggested removing the bucket off the FEL and mounting the blade in its place. I'm not conserned with pushing snow, but would this put too much stress and FEL...

Well, I'm finally at rest. After buying the BX2200 with MMM and FEL in 2001 and not getting to use the FEL for clearing snow on my property last winter, I can now proudly say that "I got my monies worth". Boy it's great with the 3 snowstorms we've had this season and not having to spend hours...

Bought my BX2200 03/02/2002. It now has 102 hours on the meter. Yesterday, 12/26/02, I go to the shop and start my baby up. Starts just fine and purring along so I walk outside to let it warmup a bit. After about one minute I hear it shutdown. I look at the dash lights and they are flickering...

My BX2200 has 73 hours and when you raise and low the 3point hitch or the FEL a hissing noise comes from under the seat. I am able to get the noise to stop by moving the 3 pt hitch up and down until the noise stops. But as soon as you use either the hitch or the FEL the noise is back. I think...

Has anyone attached a TSC Carry ALL to their BX2200. I would like to have a platform for the back that would allow me to haul things such as firewood and a 55 gallon drum of water. A second use would be to transport a chipper/shreader that weighs about 150 pounds. It has wheels but the wheels...

I purchased a BX2200 last week, it will be delivered later this week. While I’m waiting for delivery I have been reading the operator’s guide. Currently I have a Wheel Horse and it recommends that you always operate at full throttle while running implements. The Kubota operators guide does...

First I have no ties to the company and will not profit from the sale. The Kubota Dealer in Dalton, Ga has a BX2200 with no attachments that has 98hrs on the clock. Quoted the price of $6385 for the unit or $7885 with 54MMM. Thought it might be of inteest to someone. Allen

Became the owner of a BX2200 w/60 mower this weekend. It was a used unit with 98hrs on it. The big item that is next on the list is a loader. Dealer said that they had used Buhl (sp?) loaders on the BX2200 and they worked well and were built well. I can not find any info on the web about the...

I came across this and thought I would share it with all the BX2200 owners. It is a parts manual in .PDF format, you can also save it to your hard drive for faster access. I think it is around 2.4MBs, so be patient if you have a dial-up (56K) connection. I have used it several times just to find...

I hope this does not stir up controversy like my "Welded some hooks on my FEL" post did. Which, by the way, are working just fine... I made a trailer hitch from angle iron for my BX 2200. Here is a photo.

when i lift my mower deck after mowing, and am motoring along , the front of the deck bangs something pretty hard. my dealer says its normal, but i gotta think eventually something is gonna break... anyone have this problem and fixed it yet? i cant drive it and find the banging alone... maybe a...

I bought a new BX2200 this past summer and have used it all summer for mowing 7 acres (60 mmm). I currently have 60 hours of use. I recently purchased a single bottom plow for my garden and had some traction issues. I have turf tires and pulled in 4 wheel low range with some slippage. Any...

Hey im new to compact tractors and I am looking at a used Bx2200 right now and I really like it. I was wondering if you can get a backhoe for it? Thanks

I know it has been on here several times, but I am not too good at searching for it. I have a BX2200 and would love to have remote hydraulics with the two connectors and a separate controller on the rear of my BX2200. Don't have the $$$ to pay for Kubota parts. Is there any surplus stuff on...

Looking at purchasing a trailer for hauling my BX2200 with MMM and FEL. Any susgestions on what size trailer. I plan on using an Olds Mini van to haul it. Looked at a 6.5 X 12 single axle with loading ramp. Measured my tractor from bucket to three point and measured a little under 12'...

How many gallons of windshield washer fluid did your rear tires on your BX 2200 take? I have decided to fill the rears with the WS, need to know how many gallons to buy. I figured I would not dilute it, but put it straight into the tire. Thanks Tom

Have new BX2200 and need implement advice. My plan is to work 3 acres for planting blackberries. This is Central Texas, with clayish soil, like "gumbo" but with good drainage. The implements I have now are a 4' box blade with 4 adjustable rippers and a 4' shredder. Would a "breaking" single...

Has anyone heard of a factory recall on the fuel tank for New BX2200. Here is what happened to mine. I purchased it in August, and I noticed a month ago that when I filled the fuel tank up and did a little work in the yard, that the fuel tank would leak on the left rear tire whenever I would...

Well, I put the first pic in the attachment section thought I'd show some of the other stuff, and mention that I bought our toy at Michigan Skid Loader in Utica.mi. Just thought they deserved a mention they have been great! Jay in sales (all the guys and gals) and Dave and the guys doing the...

I would like to put dual wheels on the rear of my BX2200. Does anyone know if they are available or should I start welding? Want to pull a two bottom 12" plow and 6 1/2 foot disc. Also I think it would help with the box scraper when I'm using the rippers. Thanks DrDan

greetings one and all. deer season is here finally!!!!!!!!!11 next year i want to put some food plots out. i need advise on 2 things. first what 3 pt pto tiller do you guys use that isnt too heavy for the bx2200 ? what brand is ok, what brand do i stay away from? chain drive or gear drive? used...

I just purchased a BX 2200 after much agony. I toyed with the idea of a B7500. I just could not justify the extra cost for basically more ground clearance. I will mostly mow and am very impressed with the performance after only an hour. However the bx appears to have difficulty with traction...

My MMM height knob on my BX2200 is squeaking against the body and it is very loud. Has anyone else had this problem, how can I solve it, I am just stuffing a rag around the shaft for now.

Serviced the BX2200 and gave it a bath. Just used garden hose. Now the caution lights will not go out.... Got something wet, assume a relay, but cannot locate it... Very annoying. It happened one other time when I just took ownership but that time it just seemed to fix itself...

I realize this may be getting old but I am attempting to finalize my tractor decision. I live in the NW on 4 acres with mostly grass and some woods. I intend to mow, cut trails, spread gravel, remove blackberries and brush, cut wood(move cut wood) and other general estate stuff. I continue to...

I have read many posts on why NOT to put a backhoe on the BX2200 but I want one! I can't justify spending $7000.00+ to trade up to a BX22 for a backhoe. Especially when I am going to use it around the house for little things. So I am looking into purchasing the PUMA 6' backhoe. My question...

My BX2200, FEL, MMM was delivered about 4 weeks ago. Went out to mow yesterday and noticed the right side of the MMM was not lifting. Took a look and found that the head of the pin on the tractors right side (starboard) MMM lifting arm had sheared off leaving about a 3/4 inch stub. The pin is...

are there any time when specials are offered during the year? Winter?

Last weekend I found a fuel leak on the left side of the fuel tank. I traced it to a white disk about 2-3" in diameter on the top side of the tank under the ROPS. Does anyone know what the disk is for? And why it is not sealy properly. It only leaks when going up and down hills or on bumpy...

was cleaning my BX2200 and noticed that my Bracket that holds the Air Filter in place broke where it bolts to the engine. The bracket does not look like it was made that well as it is just a strap made of tin. Anyone else have this problem?

I have been pondering the purchase of a new BX2200.I am curious if present owners out there could advise me in a few areas. 1.Has anyone used the bucket to move snow ? How easy is the bucket attachment? 2.Which mid mower size would mow arond tree etc. easier? How easy is the mower to attach...

Note this is a BX2200 and a backhoe, maybe some day I can get a BX WITH a backhoe. I guess as long as I can pull two trailers at the same time, I can get the job done. The backhoe is a Northern Hydraulics trencherman, I bought it in 1990, of course they have a bigger, more powerful model now...

Anyone have any trouble with ground clearance on the BX2200? I have read many great things about this tractor, but one of negative factors is low ground clearance of 6.7". When does this become a factor?

As i posted earlier under wrong heading.. PROBLEM?? can't use the rear 3 point hydrolics, box blade, without the 60'' mower also going up and down, the same time the rear blade does? Help?? Michael

I have a bx2200, recently bought used. Problem? How do you opperate the three point, on the rear without the mower activating at the same time. While trying to use box blade on rear, the 60' mower also goes up and down at the same time???? Why??? Michael

Got used bx2200 yesterday, love it. But this morning, wont start. After a while all of a sudden it starts. Have moved the lever that puts in nuetral many times, anyway. Turned off, and tried to start again, same problem. After an hour it started. Whats going on?? Michael

Just got today . a usedbx2200. It has 60" belly mower and box blade. When you put down the mower , to mow, the box blade also lowers. Can you not opperate these independant, without taking one or the other off??????? Puzzled, Michael

I figured I would pass this on to others that may come across the same problem. I went to start my BX the other day and did the normal procedure of putting the tractor in neutral and turning the key but nothing happened. The tractor did not turn over but just made the normal clicking noise. I...

I will soon be purchasing my first tractor. I believe I have narrowed it down to a Kubota (but i did find a great deal on a used NH TC33D so that is still in the running), but I have received conflicting opinions from the dealers I have visited and from friends as to what size I need. The...

Well after countless hours driving past the local dealer and reading posts on this site I finaly got my new tractor. My birthday is coming up in the next few weeks and my wife asked me what I wanted so I gave he the ads that I had gotten out of the news paper. Well I came home from work last...

A word to the wise: when changing the oil in the BX2200 go by the dipstick reading, not what it says in the owners manual. I did the 100 hour oil change over the weekend (change just the oil not the filter). After I drained the engine oil I had to add well over 3 quarts of oil to bring it...

Attached is a picture of my first project with my BX2200. I cut in a 10' x 420' path for my new driveway. We are building a new house and I figured I would buy a tractor and do some of the work at my leisure. Yes, it took me about 15 hours to cut in the driveway with this machine but it was...

Having trouble leveling mower deck on BX2200. Ive followed the manuel but when deck is lowered the left side bottoms down before the right side. once all is bottomed out blades are level. The uneven lowering doesn't seem right. My left side ajuster is maxed out. Is this normal? our am I...

Anyone know if Woods has made a loader for the BX2200 yet. I talked with a dealer early summer and he said they (Woods) should have one soon. I have emailed Woods a couple of times with no response.

BX2200 WHEELS WON\'T SPIN HAVE A BX2200 FEL,60MMM, WITH 70HRS. WHEN DOING LOADER WORK AT 3/4 THROTTLE THE TIRES DON'T SPIN WHEN PLOWING INTO A PILE OF DIRT( 2WD). THE TRACTOR GRUNTS LIKE IT IS UNDER POWERED. IS THIS RIGHT? SEEMS TO ME WHEN I FIRST GOT IT I COULD SPIN TIRES IN 4WD. PLEASE...

I finally decided I needed a little more weight on the front end after using a brush hog I borrowed from a friend, and too many trees to have the FEL attached. I had added a front bumper earlier, see "bumper for a BX2200" posted in the Kubota owning & operating forum. I dug in my misc. steel...

Okay...I know you guys have made plenty of posts on this subject but I need some info. I'm helping a friend put up a pole barn and am going to rent a 3pt phd to get the holes dug. My question is what auger length will fit the tractor. I stopped by the rental shop and looked at the unit he had...

King Kutter 5\' Box Blade and BX2200 Anyone know if a BX2200 can handle the King Kutter 5' Box Blade? The Kubota site shows a 4' in the implements list.

Howdy! I finally did it and bought a used BX2200 with 186 hours on it. It came with a FEL and what a joy that is! No more back pain! I paid $8500.00 for the machine and loader. I am in the process of building a new house and used the loader to move a pile of rocks and started to cut in...

I have viewed alot of threads on B7500, etc rear work lights. I was wondering if anybody has done anything different in mounting rear lights on a BX2200? This is all new to me so I want to be smart in what light(s) I use and how I mount them. Does anybody know where to purchase lights that have...

Well, it finally got me. Since my BX2200 was a later model (picked it up last September), and had the grease fitting on the pedal, figured the tank was fixed as well (dealer said it was). Just noticed I have a steady drip of fuel onto the rear of the left rear tire (as viewed from behind)...

I would like to thank you all for so many postings to help a first time NEW tractor buyer make decisions. After doing extensive research on my own then finding this site to solidify my thoughts I went out today and bought a BX2200 with FEL & grill guard, 60"MMM, and a 5FT Woods rear blade. Also...

I have been using a TSC 3 pt carry all platform, and didn't think I needed any forks, even after reading all the good info on the TBN page. Well I had to move a bunch of pallets and some limbs I had cut off. The platform will move stuff like that, but it will only lift as tall as the 3 pt will...

I have come accross a B1700 with 259 hours on the clock. This machine comes with an Allied Loader model 80, with both a 60" and a 48" bucket. It also has a 3PH sprayer and a Farm King Box Scraper with Tines. There is no mower. The price converted to USD is approx. $10,650. I have looked...

Have you ever worried about the plastic grill on your bota when you were empting the FEL into a dumpster or pickup? I did, so I built a bumper out of 2 pieces of heavy wall 1 inch square tubing 19 inches long and mounted them on a 1/4 inch piece of flat stock (actually scrap metal from another...

The nuts on the check chains aren't the easiest things to adust if your hands are wet, cold, greasy of if you have a load on them. I made a hand size adjuster by cutting off the big end of a quick hitch bushing (it fits over the nut) knurled it, and welded it to the nut (see photo) If you are...

I know that Kubota does not recommend a backhoe for the BX2200, and that is why they made the BX22. However, I own the BX2200 and would like a limited use backhoe. Has anyone ever used a backhoe from here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1751755296 They weight only 450 lbs...

I have managed to tear two rubber boots on the tie rod ends. probable due to old barbed wire (acording to my dealer). I had to replace the entire assembly as the rubber boot is not carried as a replacement. Has anyone found a source of replacement boots for the tie rod ends
