    LX2610 Tilt Steering Wheel Adjustment; Problem.

    Hoping to get some advice on my new Kubota: Three positions for the steering wheel. Problem is when I have the wheel adjusted to sit closer to my lap or in the center position, when mowing it will jump suddenly to the default upper position, furthest from my lap. This is happening quite often...

    Which Kubota to get this time?

    Thanks SDT, Good information. I would think/hope the front mounted radiatior will cool better. With the wheels size; I was thinking getting a bit more clearance might help with overall cooling? Thanks all for the input and education.

    60" Drive Over Mid Mount Mower or 60 Traditional Side Discharge Mower

    Kubota Subcompact BX24 Still wants to overheat!

    It is always a challenge with the BX24 and the engineering of the radiator; where it is and the susceptibility of the radiator to clog up with fine grass to keep the sub compact tractor running cool. What I have found is besides keeping the fan belt tight and the removable particle screen...

    BX 24 Rear PTO Output Size

    Thanks, I have ascertained some additional information: Some one had used a shaft too long an did some minor (hopefully) damage to the PTO output and transmission. I think either the shaft or the actual PTO output is a bit tweaked by that process and that is what the problem is. I may look into...

    BX 24 Rear PTO Output Size

    Friends, Still having a bit of a learning curve with the mini tractor! Bought a used BX24 with some used implements. One of the implements is a Gearmore Brushhog type mower (4 feet). I am thinking it never went with this tractor but was thrown in with the lot for the sale. One problem is the...

    Kubota Subcompact BX24 Still wants to overheat!

    Spoke with Les at Messick's and he came up with the radiator being a problem too. Apparently there is a plastic reservoir (2) in the radiator that can break down particularly when heated a bit. Gunks up the radiator with a bit of black residue. The little sub compact machines don't have much...

    Kubota Subcompact BX24 Still wants to overheat!

    Changed the thermostat and checked on all the usual troubleshooting problems with the cooling system and airflow to radiator and air filter. Fuel also it good and clean. Belt is good. Coolant is good too. My nest move is the water pump. Has anyone had any problems with the water pump on this...

    Kubota BX 24 (400 hours) Overheating!!

    Wants to overheat very quickly, maybe 10 minutes. I have not had the machine long but this has just cropped up. Happening under a very light load of using the mower to cut grass about 2 inches high. I was trying to cut higher thicker grass with the mower rather than a trailing brush hog and that...
