    B2650HSDC replacing a B3350HSDC

    tempforce, are you able to use the tractor without hearing protection with the cruise control engaged? I can barely use mine even with noise canceling headphones.

    B2601 is just a detuned B2910

    The B3350 is the evil twin of the B2650. The B3350 is 33hp vs 26hp for the B2650. The B2650 does not have the DPF (26hp and under being exempt). The B3350 seems to have gained a bad reputation for the way Kubota implemented the emission controls.

    Rodents under the hood

    Not all reviews are positive, but I have had good luck with this: http://www.amazon.com/Victor-Electronic-Rat-Trap-M240/dp/B000LNX06C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1461954370&sr=8-2&keywords=victor+electronic+mouse+trap

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    wngnut, I have a B2650 HSTC with FEL and a 5' rear finish mower. I use it to mow and maintain 5 acres. Except for the loud hydro noise I really like this tractor. I got rid of my zero turn, I hated the dust and grass it thru all over me, and the exposure to the sun, and I really did not like...

    Hydro Noise....is it normal?

    I have a B2650 with cab. The hydro noise is almost unbearable, especially when using the cruise control. I changed the hydro fluid to Super UDT2, it did not help the noise. Noise cancelling headphones help a lot.

    L5030 will not start

    When you are having this issue does the engine crank? If not, then look at the heavy cables coming from the battery. On one of the cables there is a connector that can be unplugged. Unplug it and look inside for dirt or corrosion. Also there is a fuse box in the same area with some large...

    B2650, B3350 Fuel level

    I refill my B2650 when the fuel gauge gets down to two bars. It's been my experience that tractor fuel gauges are highly unreliable, so I don't take any chances on running out of fuel.

    What attachment to buy

    I agree with coachgeo - a land plane is my tool of choice for maintaining my dirt roads (I guess it would also work on gravel). I never got the hang of a box blade, always had the peaks and valleys.

    Fueling my L3800 sucks !

    I just woke up one morning and no longer felt like holding a 5 gallon fuel can while it emptied. So I purchased one of these, couldn't be happier. Its just a tad slow but all you have to do is look at it while it does the work...

    L2500 Over Heating

    What implement(s) are you using? I recently replaced the medium lift blades on my rear finish mower with high lift blades and my B2650 started running hotter than usual - changed back to medium lift blades and all is Ok. Maybe you don't have enough PTO HP for the implement you are using?

    Hello Everyone,iam a new to this information Rich site.

    There are several good videos on youtube showing how to install and remove the FEL, they make it look easy, I also have never been brave enough to take mine off. I will try it when I have a nice level concrete pad built!
