Handyman, Actually I was taking his word on the 4ft part! It is 120cm which converts to 47inch but it would be real easy to remove a row of tines should the tractor not want to handle it! I was just hoping someone would have had a run in with one of these and could give me some insight as to...

Hello All, I've been looking for a 3pt tiller to use behind my B7100 and ran across a deal on a NorTrac 1G-120 4ft tiller for $150 from a guy who said it came with his NorTrac tractor and he used it for about 3yrs and had broken some tines off and when he went to order replacements from Northern...

At the risk of sounding Stupid! isn't what Kubota calls a dynamo actually an alternator since it's producing AC voltage? I thought the term dynamo is descriptive of a DC source. But I could be wrong!!!

Ron, did the battery issue solve your problem? I have a B7100 which had given me no problems until a month ago when she failed to start (Battery dead) so I got a new Battery and tried to check the charging system. volt meter would just barely show any charge at all at full throttle so I assumed...

OK new development! I was at my local kubota dealer to order decals and asked them for some technical advise troubleshooting the charging system. They told me to unplug the alternator start the tractor and measure AC volts from the alternator, so this I did. The results are at idle 13.0 volts...

Got Back from attending a relatives funeral at 2:00am this morning after a 650 mile drive. Got up at 7:00am went to the garage and tried to fire up the old tractor to find a dead battery!:confused: (first time she failed to start in the 3 years I've owned her:eek:) Used the booster to get her...

Greg, I've been pondering the glow plug voltage issue and I'm wondering if the indicator may be wired in series with the glow plugs? this would account for the reduced voltage reading at the glow plug terminals. The glow plugs themselves are wired in parallel. I have two wiring diagrams...

Greg, The glow plugs along with the indicator are basicly resistive heaters and as such load the electrical system a good bit. My glow plugs in my B7100 checked 9.5 Volts while heating and as I said earlier after preheating for about 30-45 seconds you can see the element in the indicator just...

Stuart, I'm glad your dealer didn't freak out when he found out it was a B7001. Should you ever need to disguise it's identity I believe that the North American version of your tractor is B7100. I don't know what if any difference there is between the two models. My B7100's serial # is...

Not sure if you were aware but the glow plug indicator is not actually a light! it is actually a heating element that will glow red when the glow plugs are hot enough on my B7100 this usually takes 30-45 seconds of preheating depending on ambient temp. it can also double as a cigarette lighter...

Stuart, Vic is correct as always, you will be able to tilt the blade with the adjustable side link. I built a road around the side of my house about 18 months ago using my B7100 with my 4ft box blade it was a fairly steep slope needing about a 26inch cut on the uphill side at the deepest point...

Speaking from the position of being a very small contractor (electrical) with 0 employees. I am in total agreement with Vic's posts. I'm curious though what happens if a contractor uses an older domestic model backhoe that was manufactured prior to rops & such will he get the same fines or is...

This may sound stupid but I'll risk it anyway! not sure about B6200 but my B7100 doesn't have a charge light just an oil pressure light! so my stupid question is are you sure it's a charge light? now that I've shown my stupidity I'll try to show my smarts cause if it's not illuminating when...

Here are links to pics of mine, Note the position of the arm in the engine kill position the small arm comes all the way to the stop. sorry for pic quality camera just didn't want to focus. also please forgive my dirty engine, I'm so ashamed...

I guess I'm an idiot! I tried to post a photo of the trigger that I mentioned in my previous post and can't seem to get it to work. anyway it is in the Gallery should you care to look. http://www.orangetractortalks.com/kubotagallery/?page=1&image=84 Vic is correct the decomp knob has no writing...

I'm thinking that hole in hte fuel pump is a vent for the diaphram and would only leak fuel if the diaphram has a hole in it! But I could be wrong as I have never owned a Kaw motor.

I am unfamiliar with your model but for the sake of this post I'm assuming that it's a gasoline engine! If thats the case and it's carburated what you discribe is commonly known as vapor lock. this happens when the gasoline in the fuel line becomes hot enough to boil to a vapor and due to the...

Update! I worked her a short while last evening and it appears that the coolant dripping from the overflow has stopped as I suspected it would! I really like jimtulloch's idea of adding a temp sender and guage to give you a heads up if the radiator grille should become blocked instead of...

Thanks Everyone! I PM'd Vic and he confirmed that the cap should be 13PSI and he also reviewed my temps and confirmed that they were OK! So I carried my old cap to my local Autozone and they sold me a new cap for $4.95 that matched my old one. My local Kubota dealer was going to have to order...

Be patient! there are lots of people on here eager to help you! I unfortunately am unfamiliar with your model and cannot offer any help beyond what I've already offered. If you PM Vic he is very good about getting back with you! That said remember that he is not Superman and probably has a life...
