Delivery day!

[MoBota]

Got him home last night after dark. I was hoping for earlier but the dealer spent 4 hours going over the unit bucket to bucket. I was already impressed especially when the shop guys went over the mechanical details and offered some pearls of wisdom for long, happy and safe tractoring career. Here I am testing out the B4672 hoe attached to the B7610. Pretty cool little unit...... /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Very nice setup. Congratulations. So can you relate some of the pearls?

Will probably be 4 hours very well spent. Very nice looking tractor. Good luck and Do not be overzealous till you become proficient in its use. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Congrats.
1st implement I worked was the BH too. You know, they say you can't cost justify those handy tools /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Awesome setup! I think you'll be very happy with the Kubota. Looking at that picture makes me wish I had a backhoe! I don't need one... but it looks like you're having fun digging!

Happy tractoring!

 

[WhiteRock]

Contratulations! You will love it. I have a B7500 and really like mine.

Be safe.

Congratulations! You're going to have a lot of fun so get ready for warm weather. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Congrats! All of us can still remember the excitement of delivery day! And a backhoe to boot! Hoeing is the most fun you can have with your clothes on! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Hey dmanspadge. I'm from Orange too! I was shocked to see it. Jeff.

 

[MoBota]

Thanks for the good words, also for the invaluable input that in no small part help me figure my way through the purchase process. The one thing the assembler/mechanic told me that sort of surprised me was that he recomended that I take the hoe off when I am not using it. I suppose that is a lot of weight for a CUT on a continuous basis. The rest were items covered in the owners guides. I'll post more photos as time permits.

First of all, nice package.... you're gonna love it. (Course I might be a little biased here....)

The only time I take my BH off is when I need to use another implement. I don't understand that one at all /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif. Your tractor is made to carry a lot of weight and your BH, which is designed for your tractor, should not create any problems. Besides, you'll find that you won't want to take it off because you'll be using it so much.... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Have fun and be safe,
Greg

Nice tractor.
I was going to buy a B 2410 until The BX 23 won me over.

1*The one thing the assembler/mechanic told me that sort of surprised me was that he recomended that I take the hoe off when I am not using it.
2*I suppose that is a lot of weight for a CUT on a continuous basis.
====================
1*Did he also tell you that if you take off the Hoe you will have to replace the weight with something else to use The FEL.
Why play musical chairs with weight when you already have it with the BH?

2*The BX 23 is designed for the BH so I don't see this as an issue.

I'm not sure about the taking the BH off when not in use either. I think since this guy has seen several tractors broken in two he is overly cautious. The subframe addition takes care of this in theory but it still doesn't seem as stought as a purpose built TLB such as the BX23 or B21. I plan to leave mine on for the most part, especially while I'm still "in training"
Speaking of which, check out my first semi-costly mistake. I got in a hurry and put my pallet fork right through the garage door. Now that I have THAT out of the way, time to get to work. This was a classic "more tractor than brains" scenario........ /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

 

[GregJ]

One little hole in your garage door..... No big deal /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif. In my first week I took out the trim on one side of the shop door /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif.... then later on that week, I thought it looked so good I made a matching mark on the other side /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif. One with the BH and the other with the FEL.

One more. Notice my trusty companion and the look on her face. Think she knows I have a new buddy? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[frank_f15]

That looks just like my garage door, only mine is brown and does not have a hole in it (yet) /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Frank,

That was THE nicest "I told you so" I have ever had! I honestly heard your voice when it happened (after the sound of tearing metal stopped of course)
