    Reinstalling blades after sharpening 60MMM

    Probably depends on where he lives, here in Minnesota we only cut grass two months per year... :)

    Reinstalling blades after sharpening 60MMM

    Question, just sharpened the blades for the first time on new BX2380, and after reinstalling the blades on 60MMM is there an optimal/preferred/best VooDoo way to align the blades directionally relative to each other? In other words, all blades at 12/6 o'clock? Outers at 12/6 o'clock, inner at...

    New BX Oil leaking from front hydraulic connections.

    So we might be speaking two different languages, and it's probably my fault. I have the 4 separate connecting lines. Each of the 4 snaps on/off independently. I don't have the FEL. Does that change any recommendations? Thank you.

    New BX Oil leaking from front hydraulic connections.

    Hello team Kubota, have a new BX2380 and oil seems to be leaking from my front hydraulic quick connect lines. Finding a pool of oil under the quick connect fittings on the garage floor. Not dramatic, but there. Is this rather normal or should leak nothing at all? Is there something I can do...

    Buying a new BX23s and need advice on snowblower options

    Do they sell larger skids or do they have to weld them on to the existing?

    Factory website pricing Vs. dealer pricing

    How much of that discount was factory rebates? You definitely did not get 24% off MSRP from the dealership. That includes some factory rebates.

    Factory website pricing Vs. dealer pricing

    I bought a new BX2380+60"MMM+55" Commercial snowblower about 4 months ago. I was not super aggressive about clawing discounts, but the best offer I had from a large dealer who moves a lot of BX machines was about 7% off MSRP, not including tax or rebates. That's MSRP - ~7%, then subtract for...

    Snowblower/PTO load on BX2380

    Jay, in my hypothetical question, I said exactly 1.00 mph in both high and low range, so: 1. The speed would be exactly the same. Although harder to accurately maintain that exact 1.00 mph in high range. 2. I've blown 4 times with it now, enough to know that I have no shortage of torque at the...

    Snowblower/PTO load on BX2380

    So high/low range just comes down to speed control?

    Snowblower/PTO load on BX2380

    Wow, didn't realize the high vs low range would be such a hot topic. I have a good basic understanding of machinery, but not really tractor specific. If I blow snow at full throttle, and travel at exactly 1.00 mph (this is a hypothetical question) blowing snow, what difference does it make if...

    Snowblower/PTO load on BX2380

    Thanks Gary, I don't mean to suggest running the engine at less than full throttle. I guess my question is if I'm at full throttle, and then when I start to blow snow if I modulate my speed to keep the RPMs from dropping more than 2-300, would that be about perfect or optimal? If full throttle...

    Snowblower/PTO load on BX2380

    So, if I modulate my speed to keep RPMs within about 2-300 from unloaded, I'm good? Does it matter if I use high or low range on the HST? Christopher Johnson

    Looking at BX1880, 60"mmm?

    Add me to the list of people who love their 60"mmm on a BX2380. Just got to use my new 55" commercial BX2822A snowblower, which worked great.
