In hindsight, I should have forgone the backhoe attachment and purchased a used mini ex to dig with. I am spoiled in that I work for a const equip rental company and can usually bring one home when needed. I learned on Cat controls, so I switched the hoses around on my kubota to make it...

I am 38 years old and feel like I have experienced this giant shift in my life time. From a black and white TV at my grandparents house, to being able to watch TV on your phone now whenever you want and everything that goes in between. I was lucky enough to grow up in a family where I helped...

We are still waiting for equipment to be delivered that we ordered last spring. The region I work in for the national rental company I work for landed just shy of $300 million dollars in fleet lastyear, just in the North east (new england, upstate NY and eastern CA), we still have about 30...

I've moved my boat and loaded car trailer with my B2601 before, the boat is around 6k and the car trailer with car probably about the same. I honestly wouldn't want to move much more than that with it. I have just under 2 acres and mow about 1 acre with it. It is overkill for my property, but...

I work for a large national equipment rental company and the equipment shortages in general are getting beyond crazy. My district alone, southern new england, is waiting on over 5 million dollars worth of fleet from various manufacturers that was supposed to have been in as long ago as April...

Did they have decent stock at H&E and cost comarable to Everything Attachmennts I'd assume? I am down in Mass and considering buying one. I was going to go buy a big Billy Goat walk behind blower, but if the AgriMetal is around $3500, they arent much more than the walk behind!

I've had my 2601 w/ FEl,MMM,BH for 4 years now. It is a great all around machine and has done everything I have asked of it and then some. It is also great to have access to it whenever I need it, as even workin gin the construction equipment rental industry it is hard for me to get equipment...

If it helps your decision at all I have a 54" MMM on my 2601 that I'd like to sell and just replace with a middle of the road zero turn with a bagger. I utilize the loader and BH on mine quite a bit and am already tired of taking it on and off. If you are local to Mass and want to buy it used...

Try St Pierre Chain down in Worcester, Ma for tire chains, pretty sure they will make a set for you. I love my 2601, have had it since 2016 and love it! What dealer did you purchase from? I purchased at Chappell Tractor in Milford.

My 2601 has probably been over loaded a few times with weight in the bucket, or on the forks picking stuff out of the truck. The steering will become "tougher" when loaded up, but it has never failed to steer. I've had the bucket loaded to where I thought the bead might pop on the tire...

Is your return hose hooked back up when you disconnected the backhoe? Mine did the same thing when I first unhooked the backhoe, I failed to put the hose back to the hard line that returns to tank on the back of the tractor.

It is possible to fab some brackets to mount the bagger off the backhoe sub frame. I did it w my 2601.It wont be plug and play at all as the backhoe subframe takes up a lot of real estate on the back of the machine

I fabricated mounts to mount the kubota bagger on the backhoe bracket of my B2601. I figure if those brackets hold the backhoe on they should handle the bagger no problem lol!

It took me 3 years and purchasing a beat up B1550 first before I could finally decide on what I wanted! I over analyze all big purchases and did this as well. I agree with getting to the dealer and sitting on the units and operating. I started with a BX25 and soon decided that wasn't going to...

This has been a huge issue with Tier 4 engines not unique to Kubota. I run a branch for a national equipment rental company and the problem is rampant across all of our new equipment. We have 63 new generators down right now around the Northeast due to PCV and EGR freeze ups. The same thing...
