    Used Kubota Motor - what to look for?

    Planning on taking delivery of a 1999 ex-Ingersoll Rand light tower today that had the lights stripped off at some point, and has just been used for backup power by the present owner. Hour meter reads ~400 hours. Seems REALLY low for a 99, especially if it ever really did duty as a light...

    BX5450 Snowthrower (w/pics)

    Finally got around to getting those part #'s from the book for you: If anyone is looking for the better bracket setup for a "B", (parts 21-26) let me know. I'd be willing to sell mine.

    Snow clearing video - BX25D w/BX5450

    This is the new 50" front snowthrower for the B and BX. Had some super wet heavy stuff to clear, and it did a pretty good job. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00wENDP7RBM

    Bx25d wsm

    I'm with Wolfman, looks scammy (and I work in the internet security field), but either way I don't think it's the correct manual. It's for the older BX25. I do still appreciate the reply though.

    Bx25d wsm

    Anyone have a line on the availability of a WSM for the BX25D in PDF format? I know the part # for the physical manual is "9Y111-08570", but I prefer to have in PDF so I can just print out the pages as I need them, not worry about getting them all greasy or dirty, and tossing when I'm done. My...

    BX5450 Snowthrower (w/pics)

    Thank you all for your replies. I heard back from RAD, and they suggested "having the dealer order (12) x 77700-01777" to replace the (3) stock shims. Apparently those shims are 1/16th of an inch each, and you stack them until you have a good fit. I let the dealer know, but I think I'm going...

    BX5450 Snowthrower (w/pics)

    Took almost a month, but I finally got the BX5450 and front quick-hitch I ordered when I bought my new BX25D. Picked it up from the dealer, and unloaded it from my trailer with the FEL: Stripped off the FEL and BH to get the tractor ready for the front quick-hitch: The box the quick-hitch...

    Fuel

    Thank you all for the replies. I don't have any other use for the fuel, and the majority opinion seems to be that it's probably fine. They are metal cans, they're filled to the brim (very little airspace), and stored inside a detached garage. It's not heated, but is insulated. I picked up a...

    Fuel

    New BX25D owner, and I've yet to even use up the fuel in the tank. I love how efficient this unit is. My old Husqvarna DRANK gas with the Kawasaki V-Twin. About a year ago I picked up a cheap diesel generator, which promptly self destructed at the 20-hr mark. Before it self-destructed, I had...

    BX25D - new owner Q's

    Thank you all for your replies. I just ordered some 1.5" spacers from motorsport-tech.com. HOPEFULLY, they clear the 54" MMM ok. I definitely plan on removing the FEL and BH for mowing. I plan on having the tractor in the following (3) configurations: Mowing: tractor, MMM Winter: tractor...

    BX25D - new owner Q's

    Just bought a brand new 2014 BX25D. This is my first "real" machine. We moved out of a property with a small backyard into 2.6 acres November of 2013 with a loooooooooong driveway, and I had purchased a Husqvarna GT52XLS with a front-mount snowblower hastily to avoid shoveling, but I...
