kubota tg1860

Took the mower off the tractor last fall to mount the quick-hitch and snowblower. Noticed then that the idler pulley arm seemed really loose, so snugged it up since it wouldn't be needed for the snowblower (different belt). The instructions also called for removing the tractor's "original belt...

Have the quick-hitch and blower, along with the manual for the blower. Have found some diagrams (thank you Messick's and Coleman Equipment) that show the arrangement of the TG2739A quick hitch and can guess as to how it has to go under the tractor. There do not seem to be any manuals or diagrams...

I have a Kubota TG1860 Diesel with the 3cyl 722D engine. I've replaced the radiator because when I first got the tractor the top of the radiator was blown off. Then, I replaced the head gasket and all the top end gaskets along with it because my assumption (which I believe was correct because...

Yesterday I posted a question in regards to any possible videos for this lawn tractor here. I received a lot of feedback from that post on another site. The previous post tells the story of how I came by this tractor. So in the process of doing things like attaching the mower deck, etc., I came...

Posted this on another site, but thought I'd try here as well: I'll try and make this long story short: My father-in-law doesn't really like getting his hands dirty with small engines. If some piece of equipment starts to falter, he'll bail and buy something new. He's always giving me stuff...

Good afternoon and thank you for the add to the page. I just picked up a TG1860 today and will be doing alot more reading about service, etc. I am looking for a good used replacement seat or is there somewhere to get one recovered? The base is in great shape from being garage kept but there...

I have a riding mower (Kubota TG1860g) and I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to put the drive belt on. I have the deck removed and the tension pulleys loosened but it just wont fit. I知 sure that it is the correct belt. It broke while mowing the lawn so I didn稚 get to see the belt in...

Hello, I have a TG1860 with a tiny fluid leak in the rear right side. It drips on to the inside of the rear tire. I cannot find instructions anywhere for changing a seal, nor could I find a part number for the seal on the Kubota website. Would a Kubota Dealer be able to do this? Thanks in advance.

Second owner of TG1860 Diesel and the tractor continues to move forward or reverse when on fast throttle and foot off the pedal. If I quickly remove my foot off the pedal the units completely comes to a stop...but if traveling slowly (still in high throttle) the tractor continue to move forward...

I'm pretty sure I seized a bearing in my diesel engine. It overheats now, and the weather isn't even hot. I'm looking at the options of just buying some cheap Ebay engine while I rebuild this one, so if it runs for one season, I'll be reasonably okay with that. However, I switched to mulching...

I bought this mower about a year ago and love it. It's got 1,100 hours on it now, and is still doing well. What I'd like to do is buy some use major components, overhaul them and replace them on the mower. The HST looks simple enough. Is this a Kubota specific HST, or did a third party make...

Hi I'm new to the forum, and desperate for some advice on how to fix this problem. The PTO Spring snapped so I bought a new one (very expensive). However, since then, the PTO belt keeps coming off when I run the Mower at fast/full speed. So I can use it if I run it at half speed but...

runs great I love these diesels I got a problem though. The mower decks central mandrel is no longer usable. I need to locate deck parts but no luck. I was wondering if you guys had some links for parts.

i have a tg1860 (we bought new) with the hst. after roughly 15 years and 710 hours, i have the infamous transmission "chatter/shudder" when making sharp turns, going up an incline, etc.. the dealer, which we bought it from and which has serviced it since new, immediately jumps to "it needs a...

I bought some nice property, 2.5 acres, and moved from a house in an HOA. The difference in lawn care caught me off guard. So, I looked for garden tractors and came across a TG1860 with a 54" deck. It drove okay. The transmission is very sensitive. It looks like it's hardly been serviced at...

I bought a used Kubota TG1860G lawn tractor in April of this year to mow grass around the front of my house. I used if once and it will not start again. After spending $300 on a mechanic I was informed that the carburetor is bad, and has been discontinued and no parts to rebuild it or...

This tractor was purchased new in 2007, I purchased in 2009. It has went thru what i would call an excessive amount of belts. Main drive belt was replaced 18 months ago along with pulleys belt broke today. it is not rubbed nothing caught in it, just a break at 1 spot in belt no other signs. Just...

Looking at two Kubota Lawn tractors a TG 1860 with 1250 hrs or a G 1700 ,2500 hrs, both are diesels. The G1700 is $600 more but is shaft drive (HST and Deck) Any feed back is appreciated! Both seem to be in about the same condition, not sure about servicing although the TG 1860 does have a...

Hi all. Yesterday, I became the proud new owner of a worn out Kubota 1860 diesel lawn mower. I say worn out, mabe not that bad, but it does have a serious problem under the hood! After getting it home, it is complete minus a battery. Checking oil and such, wow...oil is gray! thick gray...

I have a Kubota lawn tractor that ran fine a month ago and now it won't fire. Engine turns over but there is no spark at the plugs. Took apart and did not find wiring problems. I do not have a schematic. I am looking for locations of safety switches, troubleshooting ideas, and voltage test...

I have a TG1860 diesel garden tractor mower. It has an electric switch to engage the mower deck. Yesterday I pulled the switch to engage the cutter and it took a while, maybe 10 secs. An hour later the mower blades just stopped turning. This morning I tried it and it engaged just fine. I guess...

I have a Kubota TG1860 (diesel) The engine started shutting down once in a while but now it won't start. I checked fuel lines and filters and noticed there was no air or fuel coming out of the injector lines. The pump does not appear to be moving anything anywhere. Does anybody have a parts...

Have no operators manual or service manual. What is the manufactures recommended type oil SAE viscosity and quantity to change oil with new filter. I have the filter from the dealer.

Hi I own a diesel TG1860 that had been put down for a while. I've just got it going again but it seems to be losing the drive. It's getting slower and slower. I changed the drive belt but it doesn't seem to help. Is there an adjustment that can be made? I see that I can adjust the rod from the...

Does anyone have a wiring schematic for a Kubota TG1869G? I really need the wiring to the stater and relay. Thanks

I have my radiator, fan, and shroud off at the moment changing a leaky water pump and notice it looks like the only way to change the fan belt is to disconnect the drive shaft from engine. Can any one tell me if there is a different better way. This seems like a pain but thought I might do it...

Would like carb diagram and removal procedure for twin cylinder liquid cooled Kawasaki 585cc engine SKA585U1G2RA. Surges at idle. Any help would be appreciated. 920 733 0283

Anyone know where I can get a front blade/scraper for my Kubota TG1860 Lawn Tractor ? I see some tractors for sale that have them but when questioned nobody knows where to get one.

Moved to town and letting go of my Kubota. Would consider separating the blower if someone was interested, as they are hard to come by. In the Madison WI area.

The power steering would turn all the way left when starting the engine. I unplugged the wire at the top of the steering box just under the dash, it goes to a square sensor maybe , on the steering unit then plugged it back up. Now no power steering at all. Could that sensor? be bad? Anyone had...

My 1998 TG1860G (Kawasaki 2 cyl. engine) with 850 hours had a carb problem where it alternately starved, and other times almost flooded itself. Last summer I pulled the float bowl, and found that the float is made of some sort of plastic material... it seemed to have expanded slightly, binding...

When I'm cutting across grade in the ditch the tractor starts to die out. The grade is only about 25 degrees and if I turn straight up hill it catches again and runs fine. Since it's a diesel I can't see this being a fuel issue. I am leaned quite a bit to the uphill side for balance so I might...

I'm looking at tg 1860 W/54" deck & 1300 hrs on the clock. what might this be worth? paint is faded but intact, no rust, & tires are good. anything to watch out for with this model? any attachments available?

Hi all, new to the forum. Just picked up a used tg1860. Good running little tractor, needs a little tlc. Someone stripped the threads for the grease fitting that's in the top of the big nut that's down in the deep center pulley on the deck. I'm thinking of pulling the nut off to retap the...

Could anyone please tell me the weight of a Kubota TG1860 with a 54" mower deck. I need to move one from Maine to Mississippi. Thank you in advance for your help Hervey

Hi, Looks like i may be picking up a 2000 Kubota TG1860G this Sat. Will be traveling just over 4hrs to get it and so far i've only seen a few pic's of it and talked with the owner a few times. It looks to be VERY clean(especially for its age) and has 366hrs on it. It has a 48" deck and a 18hp...

I see a Kubota TG 1860 diesel with 300 hours listed locally on Craigs List for 1650.00 Does any one know how these machines compare to say a JD X series? Are they built to last? Is this a good price? I will be using it to mow a couple acres and cant afford the price of new GREEN machines.

I recently picked up a TG1860 diesel with the RCK54TG mower deck and TG2746 snowblower. (BTW, the blower was a godsend this past winter!) Unfortunately, I am now experiencing problems with the mower. The tractor runs fine and we can usually get about an hour of so or mowing done. After using...

I mow an acre at a 35 plus degree slop. The trans went out at about 100 hrs. of operation. I was told that I should use a heavier trans oil to prolong the life. Is this a solution to early failure? What should I use?

I have TG1860 and it won't shut off unless I kill the fuel solinoid manually. I also cannot turn on the pto,lights or any thing.Could this be a short or blown fuse or does it have something to do with the electrical box on the left side? Thanks

Hi, I have a TG186 Kubota and need to replace the electric clutch; I already have the new one but dont know if it needs adjustment or how to install it properly, any advice?

Looking thru the Craig's List ads the other day and came across a TG1860G for sale. They say it has ~450 hours on it and has a mower deck with a 3 bagger collection system (has a fan attached). Anybody have any experience with these units? What would a used one sell for? Thanks, Bob

Hi, I am looking for the mower belt diagram and how to adjust the tension on it. Thanks in advance.

I had recently purchased a TG1860G garden tractor that has a problem (got it really cheap). Every so often it would stall. It has an 18 hp liquid cooled Kawasaki engine with the hour meter reading 187 hrs. I cleaned the gas tank out and installed new fuel line & filter. It is not the fuel...

I purchased a used TG1860 and it came with a TG2746 snowblower and what the dealer called a quick attach. The model number on the quick attach is a bit warn and hard to read, but looks like TG27300. I have the Owner's manual and Workshop manual for the tractor, and the Parts manual for the...

Has anyone had any experience with this problem? The transmission starts slipping when I go forward or backward up hill. I followed all the troubleshooting steps in the service manual. But all the easy stuff is good. Specifically, the belt is new and tight, the go lever adjustment is...

Who has a TG1860? Anything in particular that you've had trouble with? I'm leery of the belt drive with a diesel,any kind of issues with it under load? I'm a little hung up on price right now...$4900.I know the diesel will last a long time, but it's difficult for me to justify that kind of money...

I've been looking for a riding mower/lawn tractor for a few weeks now. It all started when my Dad purchased a JD 155C for his new place,and needed somewhere to store it until he got moved in and had a place to store it. I've been push mowing my place for abour 10 years now,and even though it's...

I need some advice from the experts, I was planning to buy a new GX335 from Deere until I visited a local Kubota dealer. I'm seriously considering the TG1860G since its close in price to the Deere and actually looks to be built even tougher. After looking at the Kubota and the Deere, the Cub...

I'm in the market for a new riding mower and came across a nice used TG1860G at the local dealer. 143 hours, but looks like the new diesel it was sitting next to. Couldn't even tell it was used until the guy pointed out the slightly dirty tires. 54" deck with mulching attachment installed and no...

anybody know the suggested msrp (appox) of either of these 2 garden tractors

Anyone have a TG1860? how much are they and any info good bad or other???

Hi, Does anybody on here know the price of this model TG1860? It's a diesel with a 54 inch deck. Thanks, Terry.

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...

I have a 2000 Kubota TG1860 for sale. It is a liquid cooled 18 hp diesel. The tractor has hydrostatic trans, cushion ride suspension, power steering, 54" mower and only 65 hours of use. The tractor is in excellent condition. I'm asking $4500 or B.O.

Anyone out there know an average price for the above - purchased new in 1998 - 54" deck, rear bagger and trailer. I can't seem to find anything out there that estimates used Kubotas. Thanks!

I'm looking at both of these models and I really like the shaft driven G2160 but I like the cheaper price of the TG1860. Would the shaft drive and hydraulic deck warrant the increase in cost, in your opinion. My dad has a '85 G4200 (Diesel) that looks and runs like brand new so I want...
