Kubota B1502

The simplest answer might be that you have incorrect data from your customer. Can you yourself see the machine or get a photo of the data plate? Might be instructive, especially if there are Japanese characters present = possible gray market machine.

Call Kubota TechRep service line and see if the data you have means anything to them. Sometimes they'll talk with you, other times they send you to the nearest dealer.

If you plug the numbers into the Kubota online parts catalog search feature (perhaps different numbers or IDs in different boxes trying to find some combination that works---and watching what goes by in the drop-down selection boxes) and still can't get a response, I'd start thinking it's a gray market model.

Look to the sidebar on this website for a discussion of gray-market (not intended for North American or US import and not supported) Kubotas.

A friendly Kubota dealer can probably help you chase down SOME interchangeable parts, but it might be a crap-shoot to find what you need and some--perhaps most--dealers won't touch the things.

There are some online sources for known gray-market models--you just have to search in detail.

Please post back your experiences so we may all learn.

If I under stand your question right the model is a B1-15, as you are in Europe it's not considered a gray or grey there.

It has some very distinctly different setups than any North American Kubota tractor and as far as a North American equivalent, I don't believe there is one.
