kubota bx2200

I'm getting a pole barn built near a round pen / corral. I want to build it as close as possible to the round pen, but still leave room for the tractor (BX2200, with loader and/or rotary cutter attached). The pole barn runs north/south, and the round pen is on the west side. On the west wall of...

What would be a fair price for a new Kubota FEL for the BX2200?? How about if I bought the FEL at the time of purchase with the BX2200. I have a price of $9950 for the BX2200 W/60" mmm. I am in central Illinois. Any thoughts on a quality box scraper?? Thanks, Adam

OK--I finally got my BX2200 with FEL, 60" MMM, Box Blade. Dealer delivered it to the house. I get home and decided to try it out and mow about 3 acres of grass, 1st Problem -- You cant use any rear implaments with the MMM attached. Easy fix -- remove the box blade. 2nd Problem -- FEL makes...

Is the main difference between the B7500 and the BX2200 the hydraulic pump. It looks like the B7500 can pump more than the BX2200 so it can use larger implements. The B7500 also has a larger frame and tires I got a price on a new BX2200 with FEL, 60" MMM, & BB for $12,800 including tax and...

I got a price for $12,000 for a BX2200, FEL, 60"MMM, Generic Box Blade, and ag tires. Should I jump on this with the dealer or try to squeeze some more out of him. Does anyone know how much the dealer pays off list???? I think it might be somewhere between 25 to 30% off of list price. This...

I have a BX2200 and love it. I was wanting to know if anyone has tried puting a sickle mower on the BX. I have two creeks on my property and the bush hog can't get too alot of it. I need something so that the tractor can stay on good ground, and am tired of the weedeater. Does anyone have a...

I just purchased a bx2200 w/ the 60"mmm and front blade. I am wondering how the 2200 will perform plowing snow vs the 7100hst. My neighbor had a 71 that i have used and it worked mint, never got stuck and it would push a ton of snow. I know the 2200 has more hp but is lighter (correct?) Any...

I just purchased 10 acres in central Illinois. To give you some perspective, it is 330 ft of frontage and about the first two acres is cleared and then it goes about 8 acres back in nice hard woods. Approximately 6 acres back into the property, the ground slopes down gradually to a nice 6-8 ft...

Say - does anyone have a suggestion (it may already be in the manual, so be kind if this sounds dense) on how to use the MMM on my BX if I also have a ballast box on the 3PH. When the mower deck is lowered, so is the ballast box on the 3PH. You can see how this would somewhat degrade the...

BX2200 60\" MMM Noise Have any of you guys with the BX2200 MMM 's heard any grinding noises on the left side of the deck? I have a grinding noise on the left side of my 60" deck that happens very frequently. I have check everything out and have not been able to locate the noise. Has anyone else...

Has anyone used a Brush Hog on their BX2200? I am looking for compact tractor to use a FEL and a brush hog. I don't need a finishing mower, I have a field that is very overgrown and needs brush hogged. Thanks

What is the correct model number for the oil filter for the BX2200 - the dealer gave me 70000-15241. Is this correct - the original filter is a tad longer and black and the new one is white. I want to make sure its right before I change it.

Hey ALL, wanted to thank the folks at TractorByNet for this great resource to prepare for purchasing a tractor and to all those who have posted up your experiences with your tractors. I just placed my order for a BX2200, LA211, and 60" MMM.. got it for 13K out the door tax, tag, and recap...

I have had this little bad boy for almost a month and already have 36 hours on it! We mow 5 acres and are building a new house. The things you can find to do with the FEL are endless.....The Woods box blade is proving to be very handy as a counterbalance and is moving lots of dirt for the...

I just got a quote on the BX2200 with a FEL, grill guard, loaded turf tires and 60" MMM. The price includes a worklight and 50 Hr. maintenance kit. The total is $12,310 out the door delivered. Does this seem like a good price? Based on what I have seen on this great forum it seems to be...

I have been racking my brain trying to decide what to buy. I have 3 acres that is pretty much all lawn (actually weeds acting as a lawn for now). I am going in Monday to get a tractor and have decided on a Kubota. My first inclination was to get a 7500 and then liked the 2710 so much better...

Does the BX2200 have enough power to run a 72" rear discharge mower? I have about 8 slightly slooping acres to mow. Could anyone hazard a guess at what speed (MPH) the BX2200 could run the mower over weekly cut turf? Thanks, (This is a very cool site)

My deck is pretty noisy, and it doesn't all sound like belt/blade noise. I'd swear there is a bad spindle bearing. It is especially noticeable when you disengage the PTO and it coasts down. Anybody else with same symptoms? I'm greasing it before every mowing, does not appear to be getting...

Ok, I'm new here. I have a new BX2200 with 72 hours. This weekend as I was tilling tree rows my speed control pedal started becoming sticky. Having read the posts on this common problem with the BX, I have religiously kept the pedal pivot greased. Well, thinking that the dusty conditions...

I have fluid leak problem with my BX2200. The leak is somewhere in the steering assembly (where the four hydraulic lines connect to the steering wheel). I have already had it in the shop to have this problem corrected, but it is back after putting only five hours on the machine. The dealer...

Well all the parts for the rear hydraulics finally came in(took over a month) and I just finished installing them on my BX2200. The parts came to a total of about $160.00. These are the parts that are on the BX22. I installed the rear hydraulics because I made a 3-point backhoe and log...

Trying to order a tiller for BX2200... how do I measure to tell them how long to cut the PTO shaft? Is this something I can do myself? (that is, how hard is it to do)? Thanks, Patrick W.

Well Boys, I could not stand to wait for delivery until Saturday afternoon, so I went and picked up my Kubota B7500 with a 60" MMM, and the LA272 FEL myself. After logging only 5 hours in the saddle, I do have to say I do not regret passing up the BX2200. I only wish my pocketbook wanted the...

I probably got what I paid for; however, i'm hoping for some insight. I bought a lower end PH digger for about $420 and i'm having trouble getting it stuck. My bx2200 will suck that auger into the ground like there' no tomorrow but it goes straight down and then is stuck fast. I assume the more...

I have a BX2200 with about 60 hours on it. I have run into a problem with floor board rattle. It seems to rattle the most when I am off of the tractor without my foot weight bearing on the floor while the tractor is in an idle. When I am on the tractor with weight on the floor the rattle stops...

My dealer has a bx2200 with a landpride backhoe attached on his lot. He said that the bh has its own sub frame and it is not a problem for the 2200. Everything that I have read says not to use a bh with this machine. Does anyone know if it is a problem. Thanks

Per my previous post "Got it Today" (posted yesterday) I developed a hose leak on the FEL which the dealer gladly came today and fixed. Well.........after about two hours of operating the BB today, I developed a leak from the implement feed line on the hydraulic outlet! What a bummer! I always...

hi guys, my new bx should be here next week. does anyone have dimensions for a home made ballast box, for rear weight? i have some 3/16" diamond plate steel, about 2'x4'. i think it would work, if reinforced, but curious how to attach it to the 3 pt hitch. drill holes and then reinforce around...

OK I am close to taking the plunge. I have gained great insight from everyone here. Thanks. My use will be helping me get our new house that is just starting to be built, get done. Site clean, landscaping and all the finish grading. Then all the normal care, upkeep and improvments over...

Does the bar tires on the BX22 mess up a yard during mowing? Any comments, I worry about the traction of the turf tires in the winter. KCook

While waiting for my dealer to receive and install the new steering cylinder, I tried to mow my front yard last evening. Well, the problem has gotten alot worse, I need approx. 3 turns on the steering wheel to regain control and still it is a hit and miss proposition. This is really a DANGEROUS...

I have been having a main fuel tank leaking problem on my less than 50 hour bx2200 ! The dealer has replaced it once , and now is going to pick it up again to check it out . It looks as if it is coming from a seam , but its hard to tell . I just wondered if any one has had this same problem...

Can anyone giveme some input? I have narrowed my search down to the B7500 and the BX2200, but am a little unsure which way to go. I have about two flat acres to mow currently, but have intentions of moving to at least four within the next couple of years. Is the B7500 that much harder to...

Has anyone experienced the height adjustment knob for the MMM to get stuck or frozen and not turn. Something seems to be in a bind.

I may be wearing you guys out with questions but I like others peoples opinions, especially when I am covering new ground. We are currently building a house here in SW ARK (GO HOGS GO), that is located on five acres. Do not have any rocks to deal with and will not be removing any trees. This...

OK guys here goes........I have been checking-out this site for weeks. I have purchased 5 acres, am building a home (send money!) and realize I need something to help me maintain this property. I was raised in a farming region and have spent many hours on tractors/combines working cotton and...

Well guys, we finally have a fix for the previously posted BX2200 steering response mystery that redneck and I complained about. After no luck with my dealer trying to solve the steering problem with the BX, I decided to take matters into my own hand and called Kubota Technical Service in...

I'm in France and just got a new BX after reading this forum and dreaming on the brochures from months ! The FEL manual mention things about a seat belt, and I can't find it on mine... Is that an option ? Another thing about the seat, the four position adjust knob seems working only with 3...

How much can you lift? I sometimes can't get the loader off the ground or even curl the bucket after I drive into a low pile of dirt mixed with weeds. These are left over from piles of spring tooth cleanings. I dragged a field last year and made some piles. Any ideas why it wouldn't lift it...

Can the BX2200 be fitted with a cab. Any one out there who has a cab for their BX2200.

I am a newbie BX2200 owner and would appreciate advice from more seasoned owners about tillers for the BX. I have about 4 acres of alfalfa to mow and till under this summer in preparation for prairie seeding this fall. I am in central Iowa and have loamy soil, so no clay or particularly hard...

I have a question, when I have a load in my 211 FEL on my BX2200 and I am on uneven ground I always feel like the tractor is tipping to the right. So the other day I filled the FEL with dirt and rocks and lifted it about 3 feet into the air (not too high) and went to the rear of the tractor and...

Hello and what a great site this is! I'm a newbie to this site and also to my new BX2200! I've been test driving and talking tractors for a long time, but I finally got a chance to see a BX2200 up close at a local outdoor products show this weekend. I've got a 5 acre alfalfa patch that is...

How effective is the BX2200 with turf tires pulling a box blade? I've got mostly lawn/pasture, so turf tires would be best overall. But there are some areas that need some serious grading. Will a BX pull good without Ag tires?

I am looking to buy a BX2200 for my place in south-central Montana. Can anyone recommend a good dealer? The 2 I've talked to are in Bozeman and Billings. How about price. Anyone bought a BX2200, MMM and FEL in this part of the country lately? What did you pay?

I had a small leak on the steering cylinder, dealer fixed it. Now i cant control the steering, if i make a turn the wheels straigten out. Called dealer back and he said it was probably air in the lines. Has anyone else had any prob. with this sort of thing,??????

Changed the Hydro fluid and filter on my BX2200...manual says 2.7 gallons Super UDT to fill. I'm 1/2 quart shy of 3 gallons but no Super UDT on the dip stick. Whats the concenus out there from those who have changed the Hyro fliud in their BX2200. Is the manual wrong? Does the 2.7 number...

\"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...

Yesterday, I took the rotary cutter off and reinstalled the MMM. When I went to move the PTO selector back to the mid only position, I couldn't get the handle to move. I tried engaging and disengaging the PTO, putting the tractor in nuetral, moving the tractor back and forth, stomping on the...

I have a new BX2200 (30 hours) and it looks like I have leak on the top of the transmission just under the seat. I checked the fluid level and it actually has too much. I noticed a small red cap where it looks like the fluid is coming from on top of the transmission. Is this a pressure relief...

Well, I finally took some time last weekend and installed the Kubota mulching kit on my BX2200 mower. It took about one and a half hours to install. The mulch kit consists of 3 steel sheilds that are bolted onto the mower. The shields block the chute and have ribs for airflow to force the...

Is there anyway to keep the TPH, from lowering when using the mowing deck. This is probably a stupid question, but im clueless on this,,,,

When I'm hauling my trailer on the road or mowing, I usually run pretty high RPM, for good MPH cruising or good blade RPM, or so it sounded and I thought. However, yesterday I decided to see how close to full power I've been running, so I pulled it all the way down. Whoa!, She was really...

whats the differance between the bx2200 and the bx 22? just a new model year? i have yet to see a bx 22 at the dealers. just the 2200. help im gettin close to buying

Anyone priced a BX2000 lately? I have a sneaking suspicion there was a small price increase in May. Anyway, I just priced a BX2200, 60” MMM, FEL, and filled rear tires for $12,000, before taxes, from my local dealer. This is after much negotiating. Carver has a great deal right now on his...

hi guys, with the bx sitting close to the ground, can i use a phd from tractor supply or other after market supplier. or should i buy one from a kubota dealer? if from a dealer does anyone have a ballpark price on the kubota phd for the bx? thanks. kevin m.

What are the blue book values of the following? 1998 L2500DT with turf tires, box blade and with 150 hours. 2000 BX2200 with turf tires, 60" mid mount mower and with 310 hours Any help in negotiating the price for either of these tractors would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to put larger rims and tires on the BX2200? I'm not talking about anything extreme, just the ones that come with the B7400.

I just bought my first tractor and decided to go with the BX2200 with 60" MMM, FEL and 48" FarmKing tiller. I have used all three components and love it!! I have a question about the MMM tho....Can I use this mower as I would use a bush hog type or is it not "Industrial" enough? I took...

This is a 4" dia. sycamore tree that I have been wanting to get rid of for some time. I cut the tree down and left about 2' of stump. I pushed the stump at the 2' level w/ the fel from 3 sides and the stump gave up. Took maybe 3 minutes. I have sandy soil. I was impressed. BX2200 1, Stump...

Anybody have the Kubota tiller for the BX2200? What did it cost? How does it work, and how easy is RR? Tired of fighting with the Troy Bilt... Thanks, - Patrick

The dealer's "road man" came out with the parts, and we did the 50HR on my '91 BX2200. Other than accidentally tearing the wire off the oil pressure switch duing removal of the filter with a huge pair of lock-jaws, nothing was tricky. Of interest to the group were: 1) Be sure to grease the...

Well - I have had the BX2200 for almost a month now and I just getting around to pulling the photos from the digital camera. (What can I say - I'd rather be driving the thing than sitting in front of the computer with the photos). Lets see if I can get the photo attached. (Notice the Kubota hat!)

Last weekend i finally had to mow. After spreading 18yrds of topsoil I had to pull the FEL and ballast box off. It took 15 mins to remove both and get ready for mowing. That includes the time to push one of my house deck verticle supports back on it's mooring! Yep I was so foucused on backing...

For you guys with B7500's, how do you like the quality of the cut of the mid mount mower? I have both a BX2200 and a new B7500, but let me tell you the quality of the cut with the BX2200 does not compare to the B7500. The B7500 deck is too heavy and it leaves too many wheel marks and does not...

I've got a BX2200 with FEL. I've removed & replaced it numerous times without difficulty. However, the manual says to use the loader to lift the front tires as part of the removal process. I can take enough load off the pins to pull them, but it won't lift the front tires no matter what I do...

Could someone help find the post on BX2200 tires. What to order. I am buying one this week off the lot and it has turfs. I am getting the FEL and 60". Need to put in a lawn on 3 acres flat, after the new house is done. Move some landscape stone etc. Then it will be just mowing (nice lawn i...

I am trying to decide between a BX2200 and a B2410 both 4wd both with 60 in MMM (appears B7500 no big advantage over BX2200). I have 17.5 acres, 4 acres groomed lawn, 6 acres fields that I want to cut approx. every 3rd time I cut the lawn, the rest of the property is woods. I also want to get a...

like any info on the bx 2200 with a tiller attached, i was told by a dealer that nothin work with the bx except the kubota brand tiller because of lift height ,i figure this is horse crap but maybe sum goodold boy will post ,thanks

The nonfoldable ROPS on my BX2200 is becoming a pain because of all the low lying branches on trees around my property. Would there be any warranty issues if I cut the ROPS in half, placed heavy duty hinges and fabricated/welded some sort of a pinnable latch system on it, thus making it...

Does anyone know the output of the stock alternator on a BX2200 ? I have searched but can not find anything on TBN. I want to add some lights, but do not know how many I can add before causing electric problems. I was thinking of adding 3- 50 watt lights on ROPS, one in the rear for the snow...

I am/was trying to get a big root dug out, and the associated dirt and leaves, which had grown up under a man size gate, on a fence in the rear of my property. I was using the right corner of the FEL bucket to ram/push in to the root and twist it up and out. It seemed to be putting some torqu...

Wow! What a time saver. I moved some pretty big boulders today and the BX performed great. I was really impressed at the ease at which I could pick up and move uphill a large boulder, and then gently place it right where I wanted it. At one point I got a little quick on the foot pedal and felt...

I live right next to a golf course. Part of the 3+ hours I do mowing, there is a chance that me or even worse, Bota, could get hit by a golfball. Does anyone know how much a repalcement hood on a BX2200 costs?

BXers: I hear that a standard 4' rotary cutter is a bit much for the BX 2200 to handle weight wise. I am down to the final moments of purchasing a tractor and leaning towards the BX over the B7500 for it's superior lawn mowing capabilty and ease of changing the MMM. Is the BX marginal when it...

Tonite I took the FEL off just to see how long it would take me and how difficult (It took about 10 min.). I found that the dealer put 2 quick disconnects on the side of the tractor and one on the fel which leaves about a foot of hose dangling on the side of the tractor when the fel is off. I...

After spending way too many hours reading all the posts here, I have finally ordered my very own BX2200 with the 60" mower and FEL (it came in today and will be delivered on Monday!). Now I have one questions which I was not able to find an answer to in the archives. What size box blade are...

I realize maybe this subject has been beat to death but I am on the verge of buying a BX and definitely want to make the right decision. Looking at the unit plus 60"MMM and FEL. Priced at 12,800 seemed to be in line with the going rate in my area. Be using it for mowing about 90% and...

Hello All - I am new to this forum so please forgive me if this has been asked before. I am getting ready to purchase a new BX2200 with a 60" deck and FEL. It will be used for work on my 27 acres for mowing and general manteniance and some gardening. The horses cut most of the grass so mowing...

Can\'t wait to get home: BX2200 waiting... Hi everyone, I wanted to thank the forum for all the excellent information that has been compiled here. I got an extremely excited call from my kids (11, 7, 3) that the tractor was delivered, and it was "orange"! They all love it, and my wife is happy...

Saw another post on tractor RPMs and didn't want to butt into that post. Since the BX2200 doesn't have a tach, where to you fellow owners set the RPM's when running the MMM or the rear PTO. I've been using the MMM doing the following - turn the handle to full RPM's and then back down just a...

Hello All, I just took delivery of a BX2200 last Wednesday with loader grill guard and 60"MMM. I didn't think much about ballast until I started to read the owners manual. I went back to the dealer Saturday with the intention of getting a rear blade. My dealers impliment guy walked all over the...

I've just ordered the LA-211 FEL from my local dealer (FYI - Countryside Equip. in Green Isle, MN - I've been really pleased with the service) -- YAY! Now I have a few questions -- How useful is it to have the grill guard, too? How much can be lifted w/o any extra rear weight? The BX is...

I now have approx 15 hours seat time and have a question on the FEL control handle. The handle has a tendancy to stick when the FEL is being lowered - so much that I can let the handle go and it will stay stuck in the lowering position. It doesn't happen all the time and I've tried...

I bought a BX2200 this weekend. For those comparing prices, this is what I found on a BX2200, turf tires, FEL, 60" mmm: tractorsmart $12,250 FOB, Carver $12,315 delivered, local $12,200 delivered plus tax. I went local and got the grill guard (which is sometimes included w/ the FEL quote...

Well I made the jaunt out to the Kubota Dealer yesterday to take a look at the BX2200. I got to drive it around the parking lot and did some playing. The dealer had a used one on the lot that they had just recieved. Here are the prices I was quoted. New BX2200 w/FEL, 60" MMM & rear blade for...

I have read many post saying it is impossible to put a full size post hole digger on a BX series tractor. I did not make any modifications to this unit. It mounted right up and I have drilled over 75 holes with it. In the transport mode I have 14" clearance on flat ground with a standard 42"...

Hi folks, This is my first post at tractorbynet, and I'm very impressed with the amount of information here, as well as the community atmosphere. I'm considering the purchase of a BX2200. I have 8 acres in WI; about 3 acres are in grass, 2 in prairie, and the rest is what you would call oak...

I was considering a BX2200 when I discovered the Power Trac 422. Here is a comparison of the PT422 vs the BX2200: Advantages of the PT422 vs the BX2200: - On the PT422, all the attachments are up front where you can easily see them. - The turning radius is very small due to the articulation...

The wife and I finally made the decision to move out of the city. We are in the process of purchasing a house on 10 acres. The 10 acres used to be a corn field. It is very flat with no trees (yet). I am looking at purchasing a new tractor that will not run over 15k for the tractor and all of...

Mowed by 2.5acres yesterday evening for the first time with the BX2200, 60"MMM -WOW, it sure cuts down the mowing time from my prior 42" riding lawnmover - 1hr20min for the whole thing compared to 3+hrs. Makes me wonder how I'll ever get any significant hours on it other than mowing, using the...

Hello. I love everything about my new BX2200 except the cheesy cheapo plastic steering wheel it came with. The B2910 has a nicely built wheel with the same diameter and dish. does anyone know if they are interchangable? My Kubota dealership does not... Thanks

Hello. Can anyone tell me if a B2910 steering wheel will fit on the BX2200 to replace the cheap plastic one it comes with? Also, can one of the moderators please explain why my earlier post on this subject was deleted? Is it Verboten to say anything negative about the BX2200 here?

I’m considering buying a new BX2200. I’ve got about 10 acres of property some lawn, mostly wooded, with a 400’ gravel driveway. Looking to do general landscaping, moving stones/logs, some contouring, swales, driveway maintenance, trenches, and mowing. Dealer thinks I’d be happier with the B7500...

Thanks to all that posted help about the tractor descission. I've decided on the BX2200 with FEL, 60"MMM and 4ft landpride box scrapper. Test drove this setup this Saturday. Question is that the setup did not include a front grill guard - Is this an additional add-on or should it be included...

I’m trying to decide on which tractor will work for me. Here are a few details on my needs: - I only have 3.5 acres of mostly level field and lawn to mow. I have mowed the field a couple of times previously with my Home Depot "Made by John Deere" 42" riding mower, but it was slow going as...

Does anyone know if you can mount a Curtis loader mount plow on a BX2200?

Has anyone bought a BX2200 shop or service manual? I'm looking for a manual that really does into detail on the tractor from a service aspect not a user's guide like the one supplied with the tractor (not sure if it's called a shop or service manual). I see Carver sells several manuals. What is...

Does anybody have experience with a BX2200 using a front mounted snowblower and a rear 3pt blade for light snow cleanup? I am thinking of buyin the rear 3pt blade to handle light snows that are too small for the blower. I had also hoped to use it as counter weight for the loader in the summer...

Well after reading all the great information here and looking at a ton of tractors I put down my hard earned $$ on a BX 2200, and its coming on Thursday…YAHOOOOO. OK now my question, does anyone have a check list for things to review, check to make sure the tractor has everything and is...

I currently have a MF35 gas engine tractor with the following attachments: 6' Box Blade, 6' grader blade, 6' Disk, and a 5' finish mower. I need something to do some plowing, finish mowing and garden work. I Have 10 acres, 3 acres to finish mow, 4 acres in pasture, 1 acre garden, 2 acres soon...

I am in the process of buying a bx220 with 60" mmm and loader. The price I have 12K even for the complete package. I think I did ok. Any thoughts? Thanks

I just purchased a new BX2200 with FEL. I am planning on picking it up tomorrow but it just occured to me that since I have added the FEL I may not be able to haul it on my 10' trailer. My purchase was made after many hours of research on this site and links that it led me to. Thank's to all for...

Does anyone have any opinions or experience driving a BX2200 through shallow water? I will be replacing my old Ford NAA Jubilee shortly with a BX. However to get to one corner of my x-mas tree farm I need to ford a small creek. It has a hard bottom so no problems with getting stuck. I am however...

Next to the spools on the valve body there is a plug which I removed to see if that was where the relief valve adjuster was located. It was not so I screwed it back in but now the loader doesn't work. Since this is an opencenter system any air introduced should bleed out by itself. Any ideas?

Question regarding Kubota BX2200 pricing. Just got a quote from Service Motors here in NE Wisconsin for a new BX2200 with a 54" belly mower, grill guard, block heater and FEL. The total cost is $12,995. Does this seem like a good price?

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 have read about low clearance of the posthole digger when attached to a BX2200 (jokes about putting a BX2200 on a jackstand to use a posthole digger, etc). How real a problem is this? One excuse I am using to buy a compact/sub-compact is that I can use it to put in a fence. I am tentatively...

Sorry about my previous post re: BX2200 and posthole digger on the NH board (I think). But since some of you might have looked at it out of curiosity and own TC18/21. Was my concern a consideration in your going blue rather than orange? I have looked at NH TC18/21 and like them very much but the...

I have read about problems w/ low clearance of the posthole digger attachment to a BX2200 (jokes about putting the BX on jackstands in order to use a posthole digger, etc). How real a problem is this? One excuse I am using to justify a compact/sub-compact tractor purchase is that I could use it...

I currently own a JD 445 which is a great tractor, but recently checked out a bx 2200. I was really impressed with the bx and the durable way in which it was constructed. I primarily mow with the 445 and also own a blower and plow. The reason for considering a 2200 if for the fel since i...

I will be buying a BX2200 shortly to use for mowing my lawn and doing some rough mowing (approx.20hrs/yr) with a brush hog around the trees on my xmas tree farm. I am debating between buying turf tires or the bar tires. My concern with the turf tires is that they may not hold up when cutting...

I'm ordering a BX2200 for spring delivery. I'm considering the PTO-run bagger, which is an adaptation of the excellent bagger I had on my TG1860. Some questions: 1. Kubota recommends the front weight bracket with 2-3 weights if you operate on hills, which I plan to do. Has anyone tried using it...

I'm seriously looking at a BX2200 with FEL, MMM, and front snow blower. I have heard of some people having problems with their hood rattling. Also, it sounds like Kubota has a fix for the hydro pedal sticking. I would like some honest feedback from users-- please let me know how many hours...

Hi I am relatively new to this forum, I am considering purchasing a New bx2200 with front loader, 60" Mid mount mower, 60" woods rear scraper blade(3pt), 50" howard roto-tiller & an extra set of turf tires for a total price of $14910.00. How does this deal sound to you...any advice would be...

This is the light Kubota sells for the 2200 and the leads plug into the terminals under the seat. The cost is $68.00

BX2200 60\" blade pistons Here is a picture of the 60 inch Hydraulic pistons for raising and lowering the blade

This is a picture of both the raising and angling pistons for the 60 inch blade

Just thought I'd share some pictures of my recent additions for the winter here in southern NH. Note that the pictures were taken outside so I wouldn't be harrased by the mess in my garage! hahahahaha Mike

BX2200 60\" blade BX2200 With new 60 inch dual piston blade pushing snow.

BX2200 60\" blade I just had a chance for the first time to use the 60 inch blade and with bar tires all around. This tractor and blade will move any amount of snow. I live near Buffalo and we just received over 6 feet in 4 days. There was no sign of any kind of strain from this tractor, its a...

Does anybody know exactly how much the LA211 can lift? I know the specs from the factory, but I was wondering if anyone has added a known weight until it can't lift anymore. The reason I'm asking is that last night I lifted a little over 700 lbs with my BX...6 ft high! I had a lot of weight...

Hello. I just bought some land adjacent to my lot, and at 16 acres, I need to step up from my trusty TG1860. My local Kubota dealer is less than 3 miles away, and they are a swell bunch of joes. I bought my TG from them, as well as several small power tools. The problem is, they are a smaller...

Hi fellow BX 2200 owners. Where is the drain plug to fill or check the hydraulic fluid on this tractor. My neighbor and I own the same machine, and we can't figure this out. Please help. Thanks, Duner

I have a BX2200 with about 50 hours on it that I bought a few months ago. I went to do the 50-hour service and the manual mentioned a grease fitting on the hydro peddle. I looked and did not find the fitting. I called the dealer and he said something to the effect that the fitting was...

I need to know from all the bx'ers here what the turning radius is for this tractor. The lit. says 90". How do they get that spec? What about at the 60" or 54" deck? how does it do around trees etc. I will have about 100 trees to mow around. They should be mulched, especially if I get a...

I have a BX2200 and will have either the FEL or MMM mounted at anyone time. I need to mow over the top of 3 year septic tank or field. Does anyone see a problem with driving over the top of the tank or field for mowing or with a FEL. Do not want to find the BX2200 in the tank

Just purchased a BX2200 with a FEL and 60 inch deck for $11650.00. Not sure if this a good price or not. Any options.

Got the following quote from a local, SW Idaho dealer today. This was my first quote and I'm wondering if it's competitive...or should I keep on lookin' ? Thanks for any input! The quote: BX2200 with 50"MMM (RCK60B22BX), 50" Snowblower (BX2750, no left/right nor up/down power adjustment), Hyd...

Looking for some input - Back in May I purchased a BX2200 w/ FEL, MMM 60" and the Front Mounted Hydraulic Blade w/ quick hitch. I am about to put on the blade for the anticipated nor'easters (yeah right) however I now have had second thoughts on permanently removing the FEL for the entire...

Am thinking of purchasing a BX2200 for my 4 acres of fairly steep cliff side garden. Have been doing it by hand for the last 4 years but think a compact would help with all the lugging, mowing (about 1.5 acres of albeit very slow growing grass which only needs cutting once a month) etc.. I...

I've recently sold my Ariens GT20 Garden Tractor with the intent of moving up the ladder to a "sub-compact", such as the BX1800 or BX2200. I would like to get a BX2200, FEL and 60" MMM. I have found a new BX1800 with a 54" MMM for $13,000CDN (about $8400USD). We have just under 2 acres on a...

Just had the BX2200 returned with a new FEL on it. Aside from a hydraulic fluid leak at the valve (which it will have to go back for), I'm wondering how to use the 'level' indicator on the bucket. Nothing is mentioned in the manual, or I missed it. It's an 'L' shaped bracket on the top right...

I'm in the process of buying a Kubota BX2200 with FEL, Front Mount Snow Blower and 5' scrapper blade. I'll probably purchase a mower deck for it in the spring next year. I'm getting the turf tires with it but my brother in law (who has a hst B7200) says that I should also buy a set of Ag tires...

I bought a B1700 TLB with the intention of landscaping my yard and then selling it. Well I like having a tractor much too much to be without one ever again. I only have one acre and after a little more work with the BH, I will mainly need it for mowing and snow removal. I have a couple of...

I just wanted to thank everyone in reaffirming my decision that a BX2200 would be enough tractor for my 3.6 acre lot in Central Illinois. My BX2200 got delivered to my current house last week. I got the BX2200, FEL, MMM, and Grill Guard all setup & delivered for $12,200. I feel that this was...

I'm having the FEL installed this weekend. I recall reading that I need to make sure I get the 4 way valve, instead of the 3 way. That way I'll be able to use the valve with the front blade or snowblower. Is this correct? Anything else I need to keep an eye on? Thanks! - Patrick W.

I'm clearing sections of my woods and thinning trees. I wanted to move the trees without cutting them up into sections to save time. I cut down several 30' to 35' cedar trees one with a trunk 10" in diameter. It was so heavy, I could not even lift the trunk an inch to get the chain under it-- I...

Gheesh I wanted to add a front blade for snow plowing and mild dozing with the BX2200 and found out the blade is some $1200 or so and get this... You have to add $1000 worth of additional hydraulics. If you have a FEL which I do, do you also need all these extra hydraulics? Kubota may be...

Is anyone using their BX2200 with a PTO generator yet? I am thinking of selling my Kubota ARX 6500 generator and buying a PTO generator for my BX. I purchased a new ARX 6500 and have not used it once. Most PTO generators run at a PTO speed of 540 RPM's. After reviewing the BX2200...

Just got back from the local dealer. Me and a buddy test drove the BX2200 and the B7500. I was hoping that it would help me make my choice an easier one but guess what...It didn't I can really see the benifits of each. The BX was plenty powerful for all chores that I could come up with around...

For those of you who have experience with liquid ballast, I need to know how much fluid it takes to fill a 26x12.00-12 turf tire 75% full. Thanks in advance for your help. TomPh

Hello I have the option between buying a 4100 manual shift or or a BX2200 or a GT 455 . My tasks are as follows: Grass Mowing 1/4 acre, slight hills, few turns - I want to mow it fast Snow Plowing/removal - 120 foot driveway, RI area 20 yards of Mulch to move and distribute...

Just curious, what is the hour meter measuring? Is an hour an hour the engine is running, or an hour at a given RPM (like aircraft engines), like the old tachometer/cable driven hour meters. For example, on an airplane, an hour on the engine is an hour at, say, 2600 RPM. Run faster than that...

I'm in the research phase of my first 'Real' tractor purchase. I've been reading many of the posts on TBN and they have been of great value. But I'd like to throw out a question to any and all who may have been or are currently in my shoes. I have 2ac of mostly level lawn, two 110ft...

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...

I have recently purchased 3.6 acres in central Illinois. The majority of the lot is mowable, but it has a decent incline. To get a better idea of the lot, please see: http://maybe.unloyal.com/lot/plot.html and click on the red arrows. I originally thought that the BX2200 would be more than...

FYI - For those putting fences or trees in. I bought a 'Work saver' post hole digger. Category 0 for 'light duty' but it sure looks well built. The dealer put a Rhino (different company) 9" bit on it because it's much heavier duty than WorkSavers bit. It has double thinkness flutes (or...

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...

I am buying a tractor. I have 3 uneven acres that I wish to clear/maintain. The dealer was saying I could use a BX2200. I personally think it is too small. I could go for the B7500 w/ FEL, and R4 tires. I was also wondering what about a 30 HP tractor weighing 3200 pounds and costing roughly...

I purchased a BX2200 oil filter on line. They put the BX1800 oil filter (15853-32439) p/n on the invoice and mailed me something else (15853-32430) I went to two other WEb pages and found the following part numbers Equiptment Service and Sales (15241-32099) Carver Equiptment (15241-320901) I...

Well I finally "bit the bullet" yesterday and purchased a BX2200 with FEL, 60" MMM and rear blade. Took me six months of soul searching and looking. Thanks to all who posted herein about the BX series. I looked at nearly every one of them and the info therein was most helpful in my decision...

I almost signed the papers for a NH TC40D with loader, backhoe, and other options. It was my dream tractor, and the price was over $28,000. I started to fell uncomfortable about spending that kind of money. I was not going to use it as a finish mower. In a typical possible overreaction, I...

Anybody have the BX2763 'heavy duty' front blade for the bx2200? See it here: http://www.kubota.com/bx1800impl.cfm It says hydraulic lift and hydraulic angle standard, but then says "Manual blade angle adjustment, 0 ~ 30 degrees left and right". So my question is, which angle do the...

Once again the versatility of the BX and it's loader proved itself. I had a half dozen 8 foot pine trees to plant. I shoveled most of the topsoil from the holes into a yardcart, but the clay from deep in the hole I shoveled into the loader and dumped in the woods. Hence, I did no damage to the...

I'm thinking of buying the front blade (two way hydraulic) for the BX2200. My brother in law says I should get the FEL, and use it to 'plow', and it would be more useful for other things. Any thoughts on that? FEL doesn't seem very appropriate for plowing snow. My driveway is 250 feet...

Two weeks ago I purchased a BX2200 with 60" MMM for $10,300.. this was the cheapest of two local quotes, the other for $10,700... but both seemed high. Maybe it's the area (SE PA). Did I get a fair deal relative to the rest of you folks? I got a separate quote for the FEL at $2600 and $350...

I've clearly struck the BX2200 info gold mine here... I have a 250 foot paved driveway which I was planning on snow blowing with my Honda snowblower. Alternatively, I might sell my Honda snow blower (awesome piece of equipment) and put a blade on the front of the BX2200, but I'm concerned about...

Has anyone bought or priced the kubota PTO driven, 3 bag grass catcher for a bx2200 or bx1800? The kubota model number for the catcher is GCK60-24G.

I think I have narrowed may needs down and the BX seems to be the right fit. Anyone out there (hopefully in the southeast) planning on selling a well kept 2001 BX2200? I have and offer from a dealer of $12,000 BX2200,60mmm,loader. I can probably get them down a little more and there will be...

Hi, I just purchased a BX2200 with the LA211 Loader and 60" mower. I live on the east coast and I also purchased a BX2750 Snowblower. I shopped around and one dealer told me that I need a "special" valve for the snow blower. He said I need a 4 valve instead of a 3 valve. I purchased the...

I must sell my Bx2200, for both financial and storage reasons.I wanted to know if any one could give me a good idea what I should ask for it.My tractor is a 99 BX2200 with 167 hours,FEL,60 inch mmm,and a 40 inch box blade.It is in excellent shape and has been well maintained.I know in the future...

i'm sure this has been talked about; however, i just received my tiltmeter and want to put it on my bx2200. what have others done? There's no apparent first choice of a place to put it. thanks,

Hi How much of a slope will the BX2200 handle before it becomes unstable? I have several slopes which are about 30 degrees as well as some ditches which I would want to mow. The ditches are fairly steep. Thanks Spud

Hi I've read about the two types of tires which can be obtained with the BX2200. Most people seem to feel there is no real difference between them. Is there a difference for plowing snow with a FEL? How about when you use you FEL to scoop up hard soil or digging into hard soil? Regards Spud

Hi The specs on the BX2200 say the tractor has about 6 inches of clearance. I would like to use it on my woodlot. Are there larger tires which I could put on the BX2200 to get more ground clearance? Would these larger/higher tires create a more unstable machine?

Hi Could someone point me in the right direction to find a dealer in Canada who will quote prices for this model? I would like to find a good price on a new BX2200 in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, or Ontario. I would be looking for a package price on a Loader...

I have a new BX2200 that suddenly has a problem shifting into neutral. If I turn the tractor off in either fast (rabbit) or slow (turtle) when I try to put it in neutral again to start the engine, it won't go in unless I lift the seat and manually push on the linkage. I'll have my dealer look...

I am looking to get a BX model and there is a BX1800 at the local dealer that I might get at $7900.00 (tractor only)Is that a good price ? And also I dont see many discussions on the BX1800 . Is the BX1800 underpowered ..?I will be using the FEL and boxblade I am going to get the FEL and...

BX2200 4\' ROTARY CUTTER?? Hi All, I am looking at buying a 4' rotary cutter (King Kutter)for my BX2200. I know the manual shows a limit of 42" for a rotary cutter. Unfortunately, these smaller cutters are proving to be both spendy (1/3-1/2 more$ than 4'), and dificult to obtain (most...

Does anyone have any experience with a BX2200 using a 3point 1 or two bottom plow. I need to turn up some ground and am reluctant (too poor) to spend the money on a rototiller. it seems to me i could accomplish the same thing with a plow and disc which, around here, are fairly inexpensive and...

i intend to buy a landscape blade for use on my bx2200. can anyone tell me there experience and what size box will work best?

Does anyone have any experience with a BX2200 using a 3point 1 or two bottom plow. I need to turn up some ground and am reluctant (too poor) to spend the money on a rototiller. it seems to me i could accomplish the same thing with a plow and disc which, around here, are fairly inexpensive and...

My new 2200 was delivered the other day. I can’t believe the quality of the cut (mower) as well as the quality of the BX in general. I can see why people are buying these things. The FEL is a joy to operate, very easy to install or remove (I remove it when cutting grass), My dealer said he had...

Just purchased my first Kubota today, a sweet BX2200 with 60"mmm and FEL, will be delivered on Tuesday, 9_11. Would like your opinion on the tires I need since I wish to use the loader or a blade for some light snow removal on a 100' driveway. Most of the BX's use will be mowing 3.5 acres. Your...

My hydrolic lines on my bx2200 running from the transmission to the loader vibrate making more noise than the engine does. The dealer must of noticed it also. They installed a hose clamp around the three lines between the transmission and the first bracket. That worked for the first 10 hours but...

I have 7.68 acres. It is pretty much flat other than the road ditch and ditch that runs through the property. I hope to eventually get to the point where I'm finish mowing everything. Right now I'm waiting on the excavators to come and finish cleaning and leveling the "other" side and...

Everytime I go to use my BX2200 for mowing with belly mower I have this ach in the gut as I have to partially engage the PTO clutch to get things spinning a little and then grind the PTO selector into mid PTO position. Try to grind as little as possible but without spinning the gears it's like...

my dealer let me demo the bx2200 over the labor day weekend and i put about 17 hours on it. afterwards, i feel like it's the machine i need. i have 27 steep acres that i'm taming a little bit and intend to grow grapes on one of the south facing slopes. the bx worked fine bush hogging with a 48"...

The best route from my back yard to my side yard is right over my 1000 gallon septic tank, buried just 10 inches below the surface. I know they're not designed or built as heavy-duty structures, but I'm wondering if the lid will support the 2200 with loaded tires and the MMM. I figure it's...

Got it yesterday - only got a few minutes on it last night, long enough to try the FEL and mower. Took the mower off today (nothing to mow this year ) and put three hours on re-working my gravel drive with the FEL. Scraped off and re-distributed the center hump that's been forming the last six...

Looking for my first tractor. I have 10 acres here in MN. 3/4 AC is lawn the rest is solid woods. 220' paved driveway. Seriously considering the BX2200 with FEL, 60" or 54" MMM and a rear blade. But after spending sometime on this site (great info) I starting to wonder if a B7500HST might be...

Does anyone have experience with the mulching kit for the 60"deck? How well does it work, shat does it consist of?

can anyone tell me what the red cap is for on the air cleaner

I have looked all over for a post hole digger to fit on my BX2200. Here's photographic proof that they do exist. This is a Worksaver model 300 w/ 30" auger. A 12" extension is sitting on the bucket but I haven't tried that yet. I think the 30" auger will have to be in the ground before the...

ck it out this guy drove through all 48 states in his bx 2200

How well does the mulching deck work for the BX2200? Getting ready to place my order and I sure like the idea of a mulching deck. All my dealer says is "it's expemnsive... about $300 and I haven't sold any..." Personally, $300 bucks is a bargain if it 1) works well, 2) saves me from bagging...

BX2200 60\" MMM GREASING I just finished greasing my mower deck...how do you know when enough grease has been pumped into the grease nipples on the spindle shaft and belt tension pulleys. I did not see grease coming out of the pulleys. I did see grease coming out of the belt tension pivot and...

Hello, First I'm french and sorry for my bad English :( Okay... I would like to know the best rules for choose a tiller for a BX2200. My soil is a little heavy but without lot of stones. So what is the right size ? What do you think about the off-setting option ? What do you think about 6 blades...

I've decided to buy a BX2200, but I don't know what snowblower to buy. I have a Bed and Breakfast in upstate New York, and I need to be a able to do a good job of moving snow, but it also has to be easy enough for my wife to use--and she's no to mechanically inclined. We often get heavy snow...

I want to say thank you to this group. The information I gathered from reading these posts helped me immensely. I just received my new Kubota BX220D this morning. I paid $9800 for the tractor with the 60" mower deck, and $1620 for the hydraullic blade BX2763 with the quick attach hitch, etc...

Does anyone out there have the 60" deck with the mulching kit. I'm thinking about one for my BX2200. I like the way it cuts but the clippings that it lays out need to be mulched. I'm cutting every third day...I would need to cut every other day to keep the clippings small enough so that they...

Hi Guys, 1st time posing on this great site. I've gained alot of insight regarding the purchase of my new garden tractor. I've ordered a new BX2200 with the FEL, 60" MMM grill guard and the 4-way valve. BTW the price I got was 12,350.00 with an out of state delivery. I called my dealer( Hueys...

BX has so much power that you dont notice the parking brake is on sure would be nice if they had put a dash brake light on it. Just wonder if i am the only one who keeps forgetten the brakes are on .

Wondering how many have encountered this problem. The top link on my tractor has always been very difficult to adjust, with or without the box blade on. Now, after I adjusted the link out (in a place that I have used before several times), moved and leveled 15 tons of rock, I can not adjust one...

Just wondering, with all the past problems i've heard regarding 3 pt hitch spread, tight fits, ect... Whats the best brush hog to get for compatibility with the BX? Any other implements that work with no problems.

when i turn on my lights one of my gauge lights is a blueish color and the other one is a regular light. wondering is all of them like this or is it just mine. Still enjoying my Kubota.

I've just started - with my schedule and the local dealer's hours, I can only get to one or two this week. But - I just hit my first choice, a long-established family enterprise, and got this as a quote. BX2200 with 54" MMM LA211 loader with Grille guard Woods (I think) RB60 60" rear blade...
