    How big a generator do I need to run a Lincoln 220 stick welder.

    Yep, agree with all of the above. I have the same welder and have tried to run it off a 12kw generator with a 50amp 220v outlet on it. Yes, it would start and run the the welder....but with 1/8" rods anything over 60-70 amps would strain the generator and welder. I can run the welder at 200...

    Kubota L3200 horsepower deficiency?

    Agree with all of the above. I made a single pass in some dry, virgin soil that had a pretty good amount of sod/pasture grass on it today. My tractor has only 20 PTO hp and my tiller is 4' wide. There were no concerns with having enough power but dry, virgin soil does cause my tiller to...

    Kubota L2250

    Probably the same as my L2350. Remove the right side engine panel (same side as brake pedals). Look on the upper part of the firewall . There will be a small fuse box there (may or may not still have a cover).

    Mice

    I thought the dealer said I'd get a free 'Cap'. ;) Instead I got a 'Cat'.

    Stuck in the mud

    Other than using the rear diff lock (if you didn't) then you probably did all you could do. Once the Tractor is down on the frame or FEL cross member, its pretty much game over.

    Operation in sand

    Good solution (generally). I have a sloped drive leading to my shop... and from time to time gravel/dirt wash downhill. That requires I use a box blade or grader blade to drag some of it back uphill. Probably be the same scenario for the OP from time to time. Tire selection might be the...

    Operation in sand

    ^^^^^ Yep. Makes a big difference. I would ask also what kind of sand? 'Coarse' sand might be OK. Where I live (Deep East Texas) we have areas of what the locals call 'Sugar Sand' (very fine, white, sand). Unless it is wet.....you aren't going to go across it (let alone work it) without...

    Small engine trouble

    Its a pretty simple carburetor on those units. IF the main jet and needle are clean, pop the top off of the fuel shut off lever and you'll probably find the rubber seal there is torn. Ethanol eats them up. It can partially block the flow of fuel to the carb. Easiest fix for that is to just...

    Small engine trouble

    Does the engine have a Low Oil Shut Down switch? Had to replace that on mine when it I could not find a 'fuel' related reason for it shutting down intermittently. Just something to look at. My impression from what you've described (and tried) is that your issue is indeed fuel related. As...

    L2350 DT — strange transmission issue

    Sounds like the pressure plate height to me. IF you have the old one, measure it and compare to the new one. Lay it on a flat surface (fingers down), place a flat object across the pressure plate surface and measure. See if there is a disparity in the two heights (old unit vs. new). Your PTO...

    Good Works Tractor Co. and their latest Quick Hitch

    ^^^^^ No, you are not missing anything. That much slop in the fitment is No Bueno Por Caca...!

    L2350

    Need a LOT more info. What type of implement? Could be very dangerous depending on what you are 'testing'.

    Finish Mower

    Agreed. Good point. I have areas of property that have fairly steep hills. Some I can not safely mow across going on the side-hill. So by necessity, up and down. Going UP hill definitely taxes the available power my tractor produces. It will do it....but the governor kicks in pretty hard...

    Finish Mower

    Depends on the type of grass you plan to mow, how high you let it get and your intended ground speed. But with approximately 46 PTO horsepower, your tractor should handle 10'-12' finish mower easily enough.

    PTO question

    Before looking at wheel spacers (my last choice) for you rear wheels, look to see if your tractor has off-set 'tabs' on the rims. IF it does then simply swapping the wheels side to side can gain you 8"-10" of width which adds tremendously to stability on hills and off camber situations. For...

    PTO question

    No, IF the PTO shaft was/is the proper length...or was 'cut' to fit properly...there should be plenty of overlap in the PTO shaft to increase (or decrease) in length enough to accommodate the difference. If in doubt, remove the PTO shaft and separate the two halves. You will quickly see the...

    question about crankcase dipstick oil level BX23D

    We believed you from the start. And yes, you read it correctly. Smart of you to check though.

    6 foot Rear Finish Mower for B2650?

    I'd say it depends largely on the amount of area you want to cut, what type of grass and how tall you plan to let it get, as to choosing between a finish mower and a Zero Turn. I use a 6' finish mower behind my L2350 (similar PTO hp) to maintain some areas of pasture land that I like to keep...
