    Finally used my post hole digger to expand my shed

    Yesterday I finally got to use my post hole digger for the first time on my B2620. Probably a year and a half ago I picked up an old Shaver post hole digger with a 12" auger for $175, cleaned it up and painted it and built a stand for it. The stand makes it easy to move around and also easy...

    Bucket Skids for B2620

    We have 2 large gravel drives that I have to clear snow on so I decided to make some clamp on bucket skids to help keep from digging into the gravel. I've been keeping the bucket tilted back just a touch and then putting it in float to leave behind the gravel and get most of the snow. If I...

    How Much Rear Weight on B2620 with Loader???

    Good Morning Everyone, I just got the Loader for my B2620 and am wondering how much weight I want/need for a rear 3 point counter weight? I don't want to fill the tires as I mow with the tractor more often than not and I don't really want the extra weight when I mowing, etc. I have plenty...

    Buildling a shed for my B2620

    We'll I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures of the shed I designed and built for my B2620. The shed is only 10'x14', but I already had a concrete pad that was there so it saved a lot of money. I can get the tractor and rear blade in there, but when I get the FEL, I'll either have...

    Rear Blade Gauge Wheels on B2620

    I finally got around to getting some more pictures of the gauge wheels I made for the rear blade on my B2620. I added the gauge wheels to try to help keep from scraping all of the gravel out of our driveway when I move snow this winter. I had everything on hand already except for the 3/4"...

    Mulch Door for a RCK60-29B Deck on a B2620

    We are starting to have the leaves fall pretty good in our 1 acre yard and the MMM RCK60-29B deck on my B2620 wasn't doing a good job at all with chopping up the leaves, even with the gator blades on the deck (http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15377). I decided I'd make...

    Installing a block heater on a B2620

    When I bought my B2620 a couple months ago I talked the dealer into throwing in a block heater, but they were out of them at the time. They got them back in stock so I picked it up over the weekend and installed it last night. Its a pretty simple process, but I figured I'd share and thought it...

    Working on Setting up My Garage....

    I just thought I'd share a few pictures of my "new" garage that I'm setting up. About a year and a half ago we bought a repo'd house and completely gutted it and re-did EVERYTHING. About a month and a half ago we finally moved in and are getting settled in so now I'm working up getting my...

    B2620 LED Headlights

    I did a simple customization to my B2620, I put in some LED bulbs in the head lights, just a simple bulb change, but it made a difference. The stock bulbs are 23watt 1073 incandescent bulbs and really aren't that bright. I don't really have a huge need to headlights right now, but will need...

    G3 Gator Blades on RCK60-29b Deck on B2620

    Just thought I'd share a little info: I ordered a set of G3 Gator blades for my RCK60-29b mid mount mower deck on my B2620, part # 96-393, hoping they might cut the grass up a little finer. I didn't really notice any difference when cutting 1-1.5" or about 3" of grass compared to the stock...

    Pulled down an old shed and waxed my new B2620 - PICS

    I just got my B2620 last Thursday so of course I had to play with it and get it all cleaned up over the weekend! (See my intro post if you haven't already: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14987 ) Saturday morning I finished trimming our big walnut tree in the back...

    New B2620 Owner

    Hello this is Zach and I just bought a new B2620 with a 60" mmm and just joined the forum so I figured I'd introduce myself real quick. My wife and I live in central IL on an acre with quite a bit of plowing to do in the winter and pretty much the entire acre needs to be landscaped. I bought...
