    Grass rows, are very annoying how to avoid? Using the MMM.

    Are you running the RPM’s up in 540 PTO range? I mow with a BX2380 with MMM and the only time stuff tends to get stuck is if the grass is tall and I don’t run the RPM’s high enough. One field I mow tends to get a little tall before I get to it so I use a bungee to hold up the plastic deflector...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I understand not wanting to use PayPal. You may want to look at it again, if you add the item to the cart then on the next screen you have option to pay with CC. I have ordered from them and always just use my CC never PayPal.

    BX for only mowing

    When I bought my BX2380 in 2019 I was dead set on a BX1880 just to mow with. I needed a strong 4WD mower. I had another tractor with bucket and everything I needed, so I thought……. I didn’t need all that with the 1880. I ended up with the 2380 with front bucket w/quick connect and front remotes...

    Removing snow after use ?????

    I store my tractors in a pole barn with a concrete floor that I sometimes heat. I blow my equipment off with a leaf blower before I put them inside. I still have some water in the floor when things melt. I then use a commercial 24” foor squeegee and push it out the door.

    Frozen Hydraulic Couplers

    Using heat….Good idea! I have a china heat gun that uses DEWALT batteries. I think I found another use for it!

    Any ideas on how to break-up ice on a gravel driveway?

    We had ice hang on for 2 weeks in January. I could not get through the 4”+ stuff. But I was able to scar it enough so when it froze back the ridges gave you traction.

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    Guys thanks for all of your suggestions. All good stuff. I found a 6 foot hydraulic snow blade, skid steer quick connect on marketplace. Brand new never used. I got that for my Ford 1720. That solved a few problems. Especially correcting the sore neck and back from bending around all the time...

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    Where I would be blowing I am not worried about striking something with a flying rock. More concerned about if it will damage the blower….

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    I spent 6 hrs today pushing snow with my open station tractor and a 7’ rear blade. I have about 700’ feet of road to maintain. 200’ of that is blacktop. Today was quite different with 6” of snow and an inch of ice on top. That was a difference problem. And I can’t remember the last time I seen...

    Coon Problem

    Is a known fact that coons and ground hogs are born with a lead deficiency…… I trap them inject some lead and relocate them! 😜 They are so destructive. I spent several thousand dollars fixing my farm pound from what the ground hogs did to it…….

    Why oh why

    Nice! Did you buy a kit or did you piece it together yourself? I looked at one kit for my BX 2380 and because I have the land pride third valve kit it would not work. Very interested in this….. Ron

    BX2380 choking down under load

    Thanks for all the help! You guys were on the money as to how to track this down. No fuel at the injectors, fuel pump And filter. I turned my air compressor down to 15 psi and blew air in the line leading back to the tank. The dealer was right the tank was plugged at the outlet. It may happen...
