    B7200D Leaking Hydraulic Oil

    Thanks but the rings look ok. Now the screen nut does not want to go all the way down like it did the first time. Cleaned the threads but no help.

    B7200D Leaking Hydraulic Oil

    I cleaned the hydraulic screen per the owners manual and replaced the O-rings with Kubota parts. It had been slow dripping oil past the old oil inlet pipe o-ring on the inside. Now it leaks worse and both are leaking. They look to be properly seated and I cranked down the screen nut all the way...

    Seat Belt

    I think Bmyers' video helps. I'm thinking/hoping the reel has an arresting mechanism that senses when it is not level or is moving. Thanks

    Seat Belt

    I know this topic is not very exciting but how is the retractable seat belt supposed to work? It does not have an inertial reel like a car would have--I think I can see the reason. If you happen to roll the tractor (!), how would it assist the operator in staying put since it just reels out lots...

    Loader bucket recommendations

    I have the L4701 tractor and LA765 FEL. Not sure which bucket to get: 1. The standard light duty one, L2236 2. L2235A square back 3. L2296 round back I expect the L2236 is a bit flimsy but cannot find any specs for bucket weights. Any advice is welcome. Thanks

    L4802 or MX5400 to purchase?

    Trying to decide. 10 acres, half wooded. Leaning toward the L4802 b/c it is a bit smaller and easier to maneuver. Also the dealer says the big K basically isn't making many MX's b/c the profits and sales are in the L series. A customer ordered an MX in July 22, estimated delivery December 23...

    B7200 rototiller

    Yes, moving the wheels inward is a good idea!

    B7200 rototiller

    Thanks for your reply. It is an established garden and the B7200 is gear drive. I talked to the Landpride rep and he suggests going with the RTR 0550. My garden is 30x50 ft and I am in no hurry. I can also move in one or both rear wheels and the RTR 0550 would cover the tracks.

    B7200 rototiller

    I'm considering the Landpride RTA 1250 rototiller for my B7200. The tractor is rated for 14 PTO HP. The Landpride specs say 15-40HP. I could go with the Landpride RTA 1242 (also spec'd for 15-40HP) but it would not cover my tractor's wheel track. Anyone with advice and experience with this...
