    La211 FEL for B6100/7100

    For sale is my LA 211 Kubota loader. Included is the loader, the frame and supports to fit onto the B6100/7100 and the counterweight. Too, I'll include the bucket forks. This FEL has been on my 6100 and has been used for snow and dirt. It works perfectly using the on-board hydraulics on the...

    Hydraulics.... HELP

    Hopefully someone will be able to explain to me a strange occurrence that happened today. I'll include all the details that I can. I was moving some stumps and with the FEL on my B6100. All went just fine. I started moving some dirt and had some difficulty getting the bucket to curl, it...

    Proof of Global Warming

    God Bless GLOBAL Warming...... I'm going to leave my Kubota running just a bit longer to support the effort! Looking forward to the 2013 results! Cheers boys!

    B6100 with LA211 FEL Forks

    Spent the weekend fabricating these clamp on forks. They work great. The paint became scratched yesterday.... They can't look pristine forever.... For all those with a B6100, this loader has been on my b6100 for 6 months and has worked beautifully. With a bit of construction of the sub...

    3PTH Ballast Box

    Kubota makes a metal box. I started down the same path as you, but by the time I priced the metal, considered the time to weld a three point hitch, etc I decided that the $200 was an acceptable price to pay. I filled it with concrete from Home Depot. I tilted the box by placing the rear on a...

    Wanted KB180 Backhoe

    If anyone knows of, or has a backhoe for the B7100, I am looking for one. I believe that I'm looking for the KB180, but am open to other suggestions. dhale@waterlooaviation.com

    what diesel additives do you use?

    Just my 2 cents, but I run Jet A1 exclusively in my B6100. I fly a jet, and we sump the tanks regularly for sediment. Given that there is never any water or sediment, rather than throwing it away, I put it into a gerry can and whenever there is enough I bring it home. As I understand it, I...

    Post hole digger spins but wont dig

    Take off the auger. Lower the boom as low as it will go. If it stops part way down, something hydraulically is restricting. Too, check the 3 pt speed adjustment, if your friend played with that at all your problem might be there. Once you do get it sorted out, DONT LOAN YOUR TRACTOR!!! Lol.

    FEL pump

    I have the B6100D and I installed an LA211 FEL onto it. I used the onboard pump and it does everything that I ask of it and more. In fact it is almost too fast under no load. As for being under load, it is awesome. At 3/4 throttle I can do anything I want or need to do, but most times run...

    Another Log Splitter Question

    I have a B6100 and the hydraulics run my front end loader..... So what's my point? There is a reason why we buy Kubota. That is simply because it WILL. Whatever you ask of it, no matter how "small" you think your tractor, it's hydraulics, it's engine is, again, it WILL. Enjoy the...

    B6100 / B7100 Mid mount mowers

    When I went looking for my B6100 I was cautioned that the older HST drives were great, until something went wrong. It seems unusual to me that anyone would remove the engine from a tractor that is functioning well. You might just end up with two unservicable tractors, and some spare tires...

    Building B6100 loader

    I installed a Kubota LA211 loader onto my B6100. It works great. If you want I can give you all the details you need. I've been moving dirt and snow with it... It's awesome. I just put some pics on my thread in the impliments section of the forum. Cheers, Derek

    Removing 4 post ROPS for transportation

    My B6100 didn't have a Rops when I purchased it last year. I researched and installed the Rops.... It was easy. Torques we available and the directions were straight forward. I have an enclosed trailer and have floor and wall tiedowns that were installed by me. I would defy any engineer to...
