I've come across this Kubota-brand trencher for a B7100. The 3ph and PTO cover has to be removed, and this gets bolted on in place. The lift cylinder gets piped to the outlet under the seat. A drive sprocket goes directly on the PTO shaft. Does anyone have any idea what the model number would...

This is the sort of thing that happens when I combine woodworking with metalworking: https://picturehosting.verhey.org/Delta_band_saw/Delta_16_inch_bandsaw.htm

During my recent Kubota clutch adventure, I discovered that the muffler is rusting out. New one from the dealer is -- Wait For It: $550.00 Ain't gonna happen. Welding up the old one goes on the to-do list. Then I happened to stumble on a Kijiji ad listing one (together with the gasket and...

I fired up the tractor this afternoon to clear the snow. Started fine, let it warm up for 10 minutes or so. Unplugged the block heater, started driving forward. Suddenly there was a loud rattle, like something rotating was hitting sheet metal. Engine was running at near full-throttle with no...

I just got back in from blowing off the ice rink. The 3ph spool valve has suddenly started binding occasionally at random times, usually in the neutral position. Sometimes when trying to lift the blower, other times when trying to lower it. It might be normal 10 or 20 times in a row, then...

I had everything mounted, fueled, greased, tested and ready to go; but of course, I was out of town when the first snowstorm of the season hit. My son, bless his soul, took it upon himself to come over and blow out the driveway for SWMBO in my absence. Afterwards, he phoned me up and said...

I know things powered via the hydraulic block must be open centre, but what about via the take-off valve under the seat? The relief valve is before the spool valve so does it matter if the accessory is open or closed centre? Background: I took down a couple of trees and am looking around for a...

I'm considering a Titan pine straw rake. Has anyone tried one? Any issues? Is it quick-hitch compatible?

Every spring and every fall we have a substantial amount of flotsam along the shoreline and on the bottom near the shore of our sand beach that needs to be raked up and disposed of. Much of it is pine needles. What would be the best implement to use to rake this up into a pile on shore? A pine...

For years I have used a product called the "Water Worm" to protect my home heating oil tank from water contamination and keep it from rusting on the inside. Basically its a 4' long skinny sock on a string with some desiccant beads inside. Any moisture in the tank (eg: from condensation) drops to...

I stumbled over this interesting piece about farmers trying to gain the right and ability to repair their equipment in Nebraska. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8JCh0owT4w (I did try a search and see if this has come up here before, but apparently the words "right" and "to" are too short for...

I've still got some clean-up and painting to do, but here's my version of a light-duty SSQA fork attachment. Forks are 42" long, made of 2"x4" x 1/4" rectangular tube. Frame is 3/8" thick horizontal members and 1/4" vertical. Hangar is 1" round bar. I estimate the total weight at 100 lbs...

I'm trying to find the best (lowest temperature) cold flow additive. Some (eg: Howes) claim to lower the CFPP up to 20°F, some as much as 30°F (Peak), some even as much as 40° (Stanadyne, Amsoil) -- "depending on base fuel" as Stanadyne states in the fine print. Power Service doesn't provide any...

It's that time of year again -- time to pack away all the boats and bikes. :( My tractor came with a hitch ball mounted to the front bumper. It was really nice for tucking away trailers in tight spots, both because of visibility and the geometry, but unfortunately I had to lose it as part of...

Kubota, in their infinite wisdom, configured the later B7100 such that the rear PTO can be engaged by itself, but the engaging the forward PTO also engages the rear PTO. In fact, the rear then spins at a higher speed! I'm assuming that re-configuring their design would involve splitting the...

I came across this info on another forum. The add-on works well in Firefox, embedded images hosted by PB are visible again. FireFox...

My tractor came with 2 snowblowers: a 3ph B2789 and a front mount B2550. The first was in great shape, only 2 years old. The latter, well, let's be kind and say it was a bit rough around the edges: But geez, it's a front mount -- the Holy Grail of snowblowers. And it's not like you can...

I started with 2x6 .188 wall rectangular tube for the side rails, and rounded up the bottom corners. I took some time to make sure these welds are tight, as I plan to fill the rails with WWF for additional weight if needed: Some 3-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 1/4" angle iron looks like a nice cutting...

The cost of clear diesel at the pump around here is 96.6¢ per liter. No additional taxes. My home heating fuel supplier told me they sell dyed diesel for 89.4¢ per litre. About 7 cents per litre cheaper, right? So I went there and filled 2 jerry cans with dyed diesel at their pump, which...

I scanned an owner's manual (B7100HST/B6100HST) and tried to submit it to Kubotabooks. My e-mail was bounced. If the proprietor of that service is on this forum, can you contact me by PM and I'll provide a link to it?
