Here's a link to the plow I was trying to hook up. http://www.thesmartfarmer.com/supplies/Low-Profile-One-Bottom-Plow-for-Compact-tractors__19-12-LEINBACH-ONE-BOTTOM-PLOW.aspx I looked at the hitch dimensions an I'm convinced that it's the plow thats the problem. The pins on the towbar are the...

The Machine and Plow are undercover for the winter up in Central Maine. Can't get any pics till spring. I'm pretty mechanical and I looked at what I had to do to close up the lower link arms. I'm not sure what it was when I looked at doing just that. But I do remember that things would start to...

Got an L2250 used it to clear the driveway last year but never used the 3ph. I bought a 1 bottom plow to fool around with some garden stuff but when it showed up the pins were located in a fashion that was obviously too narrow for the lift arms that seem to be set about 26" apart. Looks like...

They had to do some fancy work to get that plow on the big kubota in the video. I guess they used the big tractor because thats all they had. But I was misled to thinking that it would go on a catagory 1 hitch because of the video. The 19-12 plow is for narrow hitches on sub-compact tractors. I...

I bought a Lienbach 19-12 bottom plow for our L-2250. When I brought it over to the tractor I noticed that the link pins on the plow are about 18" apart. The lower links on the three point hitch are about 27" apart. Somethings wrong. I saw a video with this plow and a much larger Kubota. Here's...

I wanted to buy a new bucket. When I got there the salesman said he could show me a used bucket for a hundred bucks cheaper. When I saw it it was obvious that the bucket was new. Although the mounting holes had grease in them. The cutting edge was actually was fabricated with better workmanship...

This thread struck a nerve, Over the years it's been my intention to pollute as many "husbands" minds to the fun of fishing. Here my buddy Jeff falls victim to an ear to ear smile after putting some meat in the fishbox. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v141/reelkarma/Augman0028Crop.jpg

Can't resist posting OT here. I like to fish too. I'm running two Jap motors on the back of this Scow. No wonder why Kubota seems like a good choice. Tohatsu's are bulletproof! Here's a pic of my buddy Wendell hoisting a few the better Atlantic Cod we came across on a drift over a bank on a...

Everything went well up until the point of re-inserting the cotter pins. The old bucket had a rectangular boss and the pins have a rectangular cap that rides over this boss. The new bucket has round bosses. The old pins with the rectangular bosses fit tight up against the steel but seem to be...

Headed up North again this weekend with a new bucket for the BF400G loader on the L2250. I don't see anywhere in the manuals where it says how to do this. Do I need any special tool?

Took a ride to see the tractor this weekend. Changed the air filter, fuel filter, oil and oil filter. Things went smooth thanks to the videos. Looked at the doorbell and it's connected between one of the bayonets in the fusible link socket and a bayonet on the starter. I had not a lot of time...

They dumped the old Kubota L-2250 off late afternoon on a cold day. I was curious why they started the tractor up with a doorbell taped to the loader. They told me the fusible link went and they had to do that to get it on the trailer. The gave me the failed link and somehow it all made some...

Have no idea what the concentration of glycol is, but at 32 below zero it's green and still liquid. Looks like we made it. I tipped my neighbor off to this site and the injector bleeding video. He just called me and informed me that after viewing it he went out and used the bleeder valve and it...

My neighbor ran my old L-2250 all winter long clearing his driveway. The other morning it would not start. It did sputter and try to start a few times. But now nothing. The only thing that was done before this happened was the fuel was topped off. It's cold in Central Maine. No conditioner was...
