Clockwork Orange
New member
New member here but a long time lurker. I live in Central Mass and bought my very first tractor (Kubota BX 23S) about a month ago. Never had one before but with a little over 4 acres, I'm at an age that I could use some help.
Have learned a lot on here and of course cruising YouTube, but not enough to stop me going out too early and making a big muddy mess in my yard. I think it will be May before I can really go to town destroying the place :laughing:
So far have added a few farkles - Piranha bar, tool boxes, BXpanded hooks and pallet forks. Been out in my driveway practicing with the loader and backhoe trying to remember which control does what. Gonna take awhile before I can operate it with any speed. Tractor performs magnificently except for one thing - when taking the bucket off the FEL the left side does not release and the bucket becomes stuck - half on, half off. Very pleased with the dealer who will send a mechanic out to my house to diagnose the issue.
Anyway, thanks for letting me join and for all the sharing that goes on here - it's been great for a new tractor guy like myself!
