    B6000 3PH blade with 360° hydraulic powered rotation

    Looks like I never updated this thread with the finished product, better late than never I guess: I did end up installing the pressure relief valve and it works perfectly. I set it to relieve when I hit a curb and it seems to hold fine during normal use. Overall it's been working well, and...

    B6000 3PH blade with 360° hydraulic powered rotation

    So far the hydraulic motor locks the rotation sufficiently; I pulled as hard as I could on the end of the blade and it didn't rotate at all. I also dragged it down the street on dry payment at various angles and it didn't budge from the selected position. My confidence is improving that it...

    B6000 3PH blade with 360° hydraulic powered rotation

    My goal for this project, aside from normal angle adjustments, was a blade that I could rotate to push snow up on to the bank without having to get off. This project has been in the design stage for several years, and under part-time construction since about June. When I'm elbows deep into a...

    Thanks Rob, The subframe you posted looks great. I like double beam attaching to the tower. I'll definitely look through your posts. Thanks again Charlie

    Pictures of a B6000 loader subframe

    Hi Rob, My plan is to design and build a loader, I was really just looking for ideas on how to safely tie into the tractor. I'd hate to snap my tractor in half because I under built the subframe, or neglected to tie into some critical area(s). Any photographs of subframes for tractors similar...

    Thanks Lil Foot, I googled B219 and found this picture: Which was part of this thread: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=938 I guess I just needed the right keywords. Thanks everyone. -Charlie

    Pictures of a B6000 loader subframe

    Well thanks for the ideas. I still haven't found any manuals like MagKarl suggested, but I did find this picture that answered my primary question of how they tied into the rear axle: Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk Pic archived at...

    Thanks for tip MagKarl, but I seem to still be striking out. It doesn't look like they even make one for a B6000 anymore. I don't suppose you still have the manuals that you downloaded?

    Pictures of a B6000 loader subframe

    I'm trying to build a loader for my B6000, and could really use some pictures of the subframes and how they install I'm also considering just buying the subframe (if I can find one). Does anyone know part/model numbers to look for? Thanks, Charlie Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk

    Hi Vic, I see you frequently post that you have parts in stock, but I can't seem to find where your shop is. I'm in Alberta as well, and am always looking for additional sources of parts. -Charlie

    Thanks for the reply Dean, I just realized today that I hadn't set the forum to auto subscribe, so I just noticed your post today. I've since got mine back together, but thanks for the offer. Charlie

    ZL600, water in oil

    The ZL600 engine in Kubota 6000 definitely has wet cylinder liners, I just removed the head on mine for the same reason. I shined a light into the block: This is a pretty bad photograph, but you can see the liner in the water jacket area:

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but it looks like I may be having the same problem. Does anyone have any pictures of what to look for? Thanks, Charlie
