Thanks Dave!

Hi Dave, Thanks so much for your help. I didn't receive that marked up drawing, do you mind sending me a PM or whatever with that drawing? Best regards, Adam.

Hello All, I spent a lot of the weekend trying to resurrect my '87ish B4200D. I got the engine running, no problem there. I pulled the plug on the transmission (geared) and out comes the water, lots of it, like at least a gallon. This tractor has been sitting for 6 years, so I have no idea...

Hello All, What year did Kubota start making the "drive over" belly mowers? Can they be adapted to earlier tractors? Just to clarify, I'm talking about the belly mowers that you drive the tractor over them to mount them up, and vice versa. My brother-in-law has one, believe his is a 2012...

This forum is starting to sound like some of the forums that I participate in, just answer the mans question! I believe the recommended oil for a tractor of that vintage is 10w-30, it may even say so right on the oil fill cap, raised letters and numbers cast into the aluminum. I'm using Shell...

I have a B4200D tractor and it uses part number 15973-6401-0, that's still an active and valid part number. This dynamo uses NSK 6201Z bearings, sealed units, two of them. Thought you would like to know.

I have a B4200D tractor and the dynamo part number is 15973-6401-0, it's still and active and valid part number. Let the record reflect that this dynamo/alternator/water pump uses NSK 6201Z bearings, they are sealed bearings as you would expect in this application. And I still have to buy a...

Thanks for the reply, sometimes I forget to do searches when I'm in the heat of the moment. I'll give Lashley a call tomorrow to see what they get for a new one. The bearing replacement sounds cheap, if you can get the bearings out. It was charging just fine, just doesn't spin anymore. I'm...

I had a belt fail and the engine in my B4200 (1989, diesel, geared, 4wd) get hot and blow the whistle. Upon inspection it would seem that the dynamo has frozen, is this common? You see where the belt kept spinning on that pulley and eventually broke. The dynamo was initially frozen, but after...

Totally get what you're saying, but magnetic heaters that I have found have had a thermostat control.

Hello All, I have see references around this website/forum about magnetic 1500 watt heaters that you stick onto the oil pan of your tractor and use that cold weather block heater. The largest I can find is 300 watts, can someone send me a link to one of these 1500 watters? Thanks, Adam.

Hello All, What does this term mean? Who or What is WYKTP? I have searched this site and have googled and nothing has come back, guess I'm slow on the up take. Thanks, Adam.

Sorry to exercise you Vic, and thanks for getting back to me. I stumped the Kubota dealers here locally, the fusible link for a B4200 was not listed in the parts manual and it sounded as though the US distributor were scratching their heads a little.

You were right, it was the negitive battery terminal. Not the first time that I have been caught by something simple, always over complicating the problem when I should know better. I went through the trouble shooting guide and everything was pointing to the fusible link, except that I didn't...

Hello All, I'll just get this fact out of the way right now; I'm an idiot! Now that thats behind us, here's what happened. My wife and I were moving wood in for the winter, using our trusty B4200D to do it. On one of the many trips I jumped on, forgot where I was and just through the thing...

You're right to an extent, but you can use your tractor to tow your independantly driven 27 ton horizontal/vertical splitter to the wood, unhitch it and start splitting. Meanwhile you have the tractor avialable to move logs around or to do whatever you want with it. You don't have tractor if...

Thank you for the replies; I appreciate the help. I was thinking about buying a clevis adapter, but then you wind up with an articulating set-up with the two points on rotation. Those locking arms look interesting I may try to pick some of those up. Regards, Adam.

Hello All, Total newb here when it comes to farm type equipment. I'm starting to use my new to me B4200 as it was intended and am on a steep learning curve with the 3-point hitch. Is there a way to lock the hitch into position, either hydraulically or mechanically? I baught one of those draw...

Thanks for the advice, this is something that I have been thinking about. Its good to hear that bearings are something that is commonly available, wonder if some of the other parts can be taken off of different model of deck? I've had no luck looking for one of these decks, so I'm hoping that...

I just figured that I would close the loop on this thread. I took the deck down to one of the local Kubota dealers and found out that its pretty much scrap. Gear box and spindles are shot, big money, more money than what the deck is worth.:mad: Anybody got a spare RC44-42 deck kicking around...
