    Toolbox Hot Items

    Welcome to the forum. This is a good site and I would roger that in going over the unit to make sure all the bolts etc on any implements for attaching are tight and just make sure there are no leaks and familiarize yourself with your unit. I know when I had my tractor delivered with the loader...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I repaired my electric chute actuator system. I thought the unit was dead as getting power and would not work. I purchased a new actuator and installed and it did not work. I did some more checking with my meter and there was power. Found that when dealer installed the system they also had a...

    Post a picture of your Kubota Front Mount Snowblower, please.

    Hi All, just reading through and noticed that the blowers need to be in sync when replacing shear bolts. How do you know how to Sync A B2781B blower augers. Should they be set up same or offset ? I may have just put new sheart bolt in and not thought of the sync of blades as seems to not throw...

    Refueling Simplification

    I use one of those battery powered pumps but find it does not work greatest in cold weather as fuel is cold. I am thinking of getting the new upgraded one with longer hose and auto stop when full. The batteries seem to last a long time. I thought about getting a tank with electric pump but I do...

    Air Conditioning tests on L5030

    I have a B2650HSDC. It was low on refrigerant and added using the sight glass and gauges. The AC works for a short time but then shuts down the compressor just kicks out. What could be the issue. could there be blockage in the lines ? is there a filter in the line that may be plugged.

    Pros and cons of snow removal options

    I use a plow on a Bronco and also a snowblower on my B2650HSDC. I used a plow for the first four years I moved to the acreage as was using the tractor bucket and forks for moving skids in shop. I then attached the blower but then the tractor is a dedicated snow removal machine. I still have the...

    MX Series hydraulic quick coupler

    Very nice job. that would have cost a lot from dealer for sure. Mine came with all factory quick attach and I really like it as can pick up my bucket and switch to forks easily. would like to ad a hydraulic on the rear for down pressure.

    Siping R4 tires and a very generous OTT member.

    I purchased a groover a couple years back and did two horizontal sipes per block on rear tires on B2650HSDC, This worked very wel and I noticed better traction in snow as that is where I needed it . I live in Canada. There was a post then of the tractor and sipes in tires.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I went out and cleared some snow for bit. There was not much but she was sitting for too long so went for a ride. I also removed the blower chute actuator and found it was dead . Something wrong in the circuit board as the motor is still good. I bought a new one and have to install and wire in .

    Which linear actuator for snowblower chute mod?

    I believe if you turn this actuator the other way up then wont have water leaking into cylinder. If this works though it works. My factory one is turned with cylinder facing down. Just my 2 cents. Hard to find same actuator as one on my Kubota as the mounting is a little different. I did...

    Kubota B2650 and Snow Blower B2781B Tensioner for PTO Gear box keeps breaking

    I adjusted my chain on mine. There are two bolts on top to loosen up also the side shield need to come off to allow access to tighten the adjusting bolt. Tighten chain and check tension then tighten the top two bolts and should be good. reinstall the side cover of chain. Hope this works out.
