    B 7100 dry bushing sound

    Sounds like a dry bushing that needs grease. Used to only hear it at medium throttle in third gear. Last year started hearing it in second, now its happening in first at anything over an idle. Can be heard in forward or reverse, in gear or clutch depressed and rolling, always only when rolling...

    B7100 dozer blade dismount???

    No, the loader has it's own pump that runs off the front PTO, and it's own reservoir in the right hand upright. The right hand upright of the loader frame has it's own control valve and mounts very close to the same place as the dozer mast and control valve. When I remove the dozer mast and...

    B7100 dozer blade dismount???

    Looking for advice on dismounting my dozer blade. I've had no problem removing the frame and blade. The hoses from the cylinders to the control valve were quick disconnect fittings, no problems there. My question involves the two hoses coming out of the aluminum block from the tractors...

    Front blade hydraulic control issue

    Great diagnostic directions, I'll write them down for future reference, appreciate your time to reply. After leaving the dealer I cleaned everything on the valves and body, the O-rings, the grooves they lay in and every surface, even blew out the cavities with low pressure air. Put it all back...

    Front blade hydraulic control issue

    Down pressure only in both positions of control lever. It's a front blade on a 1980 B7100D. The blade was on the tractor when sold new to a local funeral home and matches the tractor in color. You can faintly see a Kubota logo on the back side of the blade. It has one cylinder for up and down...

    Woods belly mower question B6100/B5100

    I'm in the process of selling my B6100E and I've had numerous offers to buy the mower deck separately. It is a Woods 348KB 48" belly mower that runs via a front electric PTO. Are the 5100 and 6100 built on the same frame? Will that deck attach equally as well under a B5100E? Thank you, I...

    Oil Leak

    Thanks for all the advice and information. Finally had enough time and warm enough temperature to wash all the grease off the bottom half of the engine, just can’t bring myself to shoot a pressure washer onto the top and sides of the engine. I’ve not had good results doing that with gas engines...

    Oil Leak

    Just bought a B6100E. A lot of old oil on the Woods 438 belly mower just under where what I would call the bell housing mates up with the back of the engine. Somewhere just above where the orange sheet metal starts, on the left side, sitting on the tractor, there is black oil leaking. Doesn't...
