I really like the BX2380, but both that I have driven have a high pitch whine. Two different dealers have said it is normal with this years model and that it's just the hydrostatic pump. Anyone else having an issue?

I have a M5040 that does the same thing at times. The problem will go away for 2 or 3 days, then it will happen again. I have just learned to live with it. Doesn't seem to hurt the tractor any. If I need it to stay still, I can put the Hi/Low speed selector in neutral and the rocking stops...

Thanks everyone for your input, I will check fluid and filters. If it doesn't get worse, I will just live with it.

Thanks for taking time to reply. What was the fix for the tractors you knew of, and does it hurt to do nothing. I went to the local dealer and they knew nothing about the problem. They mainly work with the smaller Kubotas, and at first didn't believe Kubota had ever made a M5040. They called...

I bought this tractor used with about 700 hours on it 2 years ago. I had a Kubota dealer change all fluids and do the 700 hour service this model calls for. It started doing this about a year ago, it has 860 hours on it now. Not worked hard at all. Bushhog about 30 acres with it twice a...

That is exactly what I am experiencing. Will it do harm to the tractor if not corrected?

M5040 lunges forward when shuttle shifter in neutral, not all the time and it only causes it to rock forward then settle back. If I put the speed control lever ( high/low ) in neutral, this stops. Pushing the clutch in has no effect. This is an intermittent problem and it is hard to...

I was able to find it in the parts manual.

Front windshield washer not working. Took the top of cab off and followed the hose to the top right corner where it goes down the cab support post. Have no idea where it sprays from. I think the cab was knocked off this tractor and repaired before I bought it. Thanks in advance.

I bought a used M5040 this year and took it to Kubota dealer for the 600 hour service. While there I noticed they had a good price on a new RCR1872 rotary cutter. I went back and bought it a few weeks later. It's a 6 foot model and it turns out that my rear wheel distance on my tractor is 6.5...

Re: **updated list of kubota manuals** I would be interested in a M5040 shop manual, what is the cost if you have one.

Thanks for all the help. I just noticed that blade tip speed changed between models and sizes. From the replies, it looks like the faster the better.

How important is blade tip speed for a rotary cutter.
