    TaskStar pump

    I have had that same pump for over a year now and it works good. The flow rate is around 6-8 gpm. Which is way faster than pouring from a 5 gallon can. I installed a filter on the outlet as these pumps use plastic vanes. Mine came with replacement vanes, so I assumed it means they will fail at...

    WAllenstein FX40 0n B2650 appropriate match?

    It will work just fine. I have a fx40 that I use with a lx2610 and lx4020. The lx2610 is the same as your b2650. As the previous person commented the weight of the tractor will be the limit. Just make sure you don't get carried way with what you're pulling. Going with the larger fx model is...

    Lx4020 with cab + backhoe- 3pt hitch installation

    I ran that same chipper on a lx2610. Which has less hp at the PTO than the lx4020 in eco mode. The stall happened one time in 25 hours of use and when I absolutely overloaded the chipper. Eco or normal mode the tractor would have stalled. So I don't think it's problem and it save a bunch of...

    Lx4020 with cab + backhoe- 3pt hitch installation

    I have the same model tractor and chipper and have not had this problem or any other problems. In fact I stalled the tractor without breaking the shear bolt when I over fed the chipper with dull blades and I've also started the chipper at 1/2 throttle without any issues. Was the chipper resting...

    tow behind seeder/spreader vs 3pt mount spreader

    I was a little sick to my stomach when I purchased it. I had a couple of the lesser expensive cone units in the past and was never happy. I did almost buy one from Gandy. They were more cost friendly. Below is a link to their website. They have a bunch of different options (check all of their...

    tow behind seeder/spreader vs 3pt mount spreader

    I have a Kubota VS220 spreader. This one will allow total control of any material. There is an option for a small material kit that blocks off 2 of the openings. The metering gates also have fine adjustments. Then finally different spouts change the spreading distance and area (meaning center to...

    Why are 3-point PTO driven sprayers so expensive?

    It's crazy what they want for these things. I went through this last year and found that the pricing is around the same for any manufacturer. This tells me they are selling and the price is what the market will bear. I was not willing to pay thousands of dollars for one. So, I ended up with a 45...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Added a Fasse Multiplier and tilt cylinder to my LX4020. Also replaced the original rear remote couplers that used a snap ring to mount them to bracket with a bulkhead fittings. I typically don't have anything bad to say about Kubota, but the use of snap rings to hold the rear remote couplers to...

    What type and size of rock/other for this wet hillside?

    I had the same grade and spring problem as you. This was my fix. 1. Dig out some of the slop top on top. 2. Lay down a geo-tex fabric. To stop the material from being driven into the soil. 3. Fill the area above the normal water line with the large 4-6" or larger non regular shaped rock. You...

    Future tractor

    Just take the cab off in the late spring. I had an LX2610 with aftermarket cab. It took about 20 minutes to remove. You don't have to take the whole thing apart. A second person makes it much easier to lift off. The cab I had was as from the Original Tractor Cab company. I also bought the glass...

    Leveling Boxblade with QuickHitch?

    Take a look at the adjustment options on the lift arms that attach to the lower arms. The lower arms should have different holes to attach the lift arms and doing so will chance the lift height. Another option is just don't lift the to the max position. I had a problem with the lift height on my...

    Has anybody used one of these stump grinders?

    The following is from the Woodland Mills website. None of their products are made in Canada. "Where are Woodland Mills products manufactured?" "Our products are designed and engineered in Ontario, Canada by our dedicated team and manufactured overseas by a network of trusted partners. With...

    Help! - Kubota LX2610 HSDC Snowblower Setup

    The link below is a starting point for the drive line parts needed. I would recommend that you find a local dealer and ask for the whole goods part number as buying individual parts will cost 3-4 times more that the whole goods complete kit. You will also need the coupler that mates the quick...

    Help needed on a decision about rear hydraulics

    I realize that the system uses the same pump. The point of being isolated is that you don't have to take apart existing working hydraulic components and add fittings, hoses, or piping. You also don't have to make mounting brackets or other mods. If you add all of the extra work did you save money?

    Help needed on a decision about rear hydraulics

    The Kubota rear remotes will be the cleanest install. You don't need Kubota to install the hardware. You do however need to talk with your Kubota sales person and have them order the remote hardware as a whole goods kit. Doing it this way saves a lot of money vs going to the parts counter and...
