Using a 60 inch mower vs a 54 inch mower is only going to save you about 15 minutes. If your objective is to reduce your time spent mowing, I would suggest finding a zero turn mower. They mow faster and are more maneuverable than a tractor.

I agree with Shawn. BEFORE you start wrenching on it, get a shop manual. Start with the simple things first. Even a perfectly working cooling system will overheat the engine if the radiator screen is clogged and preventing air flow. I would start there.

Before I used it again, I would be inspecting the cooling system for issues.

I saw a YouTube video where a dealer talking specifically about the LX MMM said owners may need to use a floor jack to raise the deck high enough so that the holes will line up for the pin. But he did say that the LX decks were made to be pinned in the upper position so the 3 point could be...

Before I started cutting and drilling on my deck, I would go find another LX like that one and look at it and see if they are really all like that, or if yours is assembled wrong. It makes no sense to put on a plate on the deck to be able to pin it in the up position, but the holes won't line...

SDT is correct. The BX/B MMM's are floating. The LX sits on the gauge wheels while mowing.

Interesting design. At 388lbs I think it's a little big for a BX or the smaller B series. Maybe they will design one for the sub compact tractors. The subcompact market is a lot of equipment. The other question is can you leave the grapple on the loader and take the loader off the tractor...

Check and confirm the driveshaft is connected at both ends and not just the pto shaft. A similar problem was happening on another tractor forum, and it turned out to be a broken U joint on the driveshaft. The driveshaft was just laying on the deck and spinning when the pto was engaged.

I read a posting some time back about an owner who was having trouble mowing up a hill with his l2501. He was concerned because he was losing rpm going uphill while mowing. He had loaded tires and a front end loader on. He took off his loader and the tractor did fine. It was just more...

Make sure your PTO selection is set to rear only.

I put down plywood in my shop and keep it in there until needed. It doesn't mess up the concrete or loader paint while putting it on and off. The first couple of times was a pain putting it on, but now it goes right on and off without issues. If I had to be able to move it around, I...

For $200 that might be the best looking welds they have. o_Oo_O I would RUN away from that.

When I was trying to connect the single point hydraulic lines with the handle it would bind and not lock into place no matter how hard I tried. Then I pushed the hydraulic lines on the loader block the opposite way to equalize the force from the connection handle and it slipped right into...

I spent almost 2 hours mowing and mulching up leaves. I had to go over them several times to get them cut up into small pieces. I wish Kubota would offer a mulching kit for the B series MMM. It would save me a lot of time and dust.
