Kubota BX24 MMM Question

Woodsmoker · Aug 19, 2011

Is there a way to "lock" my MMM in the up position so I can use the 3pt hitch without raising/lowering the deck at the same time?

on my 1800 the height known had a TOP setting on it

As per chucko, there is a way. Raise your deck all the way to the up position and hold it here a bit and you should then be able to rotate the knob to TOP and it will stay in the raised position while you use the 3PH.

It is hit or miss on my bx24 with moving to locked...PITA at times.

well- its not a hit of miss.. since its a one way turn, I just slow down when I approach number 4 cutting height and click one at a time. never miss this way.

Sorry, your method does not work. It gets to the #4 and that is it, no click one time..

My old bx22 never had an issue, this one grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

There are some other threads on here dealing with this with suggestions on adjusting the lift linkage. I had to have it done on my 2200.

You need to adjust the MMM linkage. The lift rod for the MMM connects to the top left (from behind) 3PH lift arm - just inside the top of the left rear wheel. There's a threaded bolt with a lock nut on it. Loosen the locknut (the inside nut), then adjust the threaded bolt so the MMM lifts a little higher. Done!

Had this issue on my old BX1860.
