    Cracked glass on instrument cluster - BX2670

    My 2370 went in for service last week before the 2 year warrantee expired. They repacked and resealed the steering rack(not sure I'm using the correct terminology). While it was in, they noticed the glass seal in the instrument cluster failed and condensation/water was getting in so they...

    Game changer

    Just be aware that the gearbox's vent is situated right above that u-joint. Now the vent is no longer on the top and the fluid can seep out and travel down the driveshaft and onto your nice floor. been there guess it doesn't happen to all vertically stored MMMs but it did to mine last wimter...

    WTB BX Snow Blower Front

    you'll find the blower works great for the times we get some real snow. I got the front blower when I bought the BX new two winters ago. What I found during the first "no snow" winter was that I like the rear blade for when we got just an inch of two of snow or for heavy, wet, sloppy snow that...

    BX2350 Hydraulic Problem

    One of the 4 hydraulic lines was sitting in place but not secured on my fathers cub cadet. His was doing the same thing you explained. Simple fix. If you haven't done this before, be sure to first lower the bucket, shut off the machine and relieve the hydraulic pressure by moving the fel lever...

    What mower deck for BX2370

    I've got the fine cut RCK54P23BX on my BX2370 (P=fine cut) If you were to look under the deck, you'd see some baffles that keep the cut grass near the spinning blades. I believe these baffles create a greater lift of the grass for a "finer" cut.

    mmm gearbox leaking

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to try a balloon and I'll pick up a can of K2R to clean up the mess. As for the ell, I'll see if the balloon works

    mmm gearbox leaking

    yeah, I'm going to say lesson learned. I don't think I can store the deck with the breather bolt up because of the 'v' shaped front of the deck. Instead, I'll see about pulling the breather bolt out and replacing it with a bolt for storage only. Thanks for chiming in. Bob

    mmm gearbox leaking

    Bought a new BX2370 with a 54" fine cut MMM in the fall. I used the mower for about 5 hours picking up leaves in the fall. When I removed the deck for storage, I noticed, and cleaned off, a thick layer of fine leave debris sticking to the gearbox around the breather bolt. I suspected it was...

    BX2370, whinning noise at 2000+ rpm

    Thanks for the link to the read and the clarification. I should have known, talking about fluids, nothing is cut and dry. I assumed there was just UDT and then there was the synthetic S-UDT. I see now Super S-UDT2 is the good stuff I come here to learn and I'm never dissappointed

    BX2370, whinning noise at 2000+ rpm

    Went into the dealer today and asked lots of questions as I'm a newbie and they have been quite helpful and knowledgeable. One question I brought up today was 'when would it be ok to switch to S-UDT?' An older gentleman from the parts dept. chimed in and said 'the tractors of the past 6-7...
