    New Holland Workmaster 40

    So the BX is currently out of commission and I have a project I needed to finish up. The local rental place had a New Holland Workmaster 40 I could rent, so I went for it. I have been researching and am thinking I will upgrade from my BX to an L in the semi-near future. The Workmaster 40...

    L vs LX

    So after my last project with my BX2200 I decided I need a bigger machine. Mostly just because when I am working against a clock I know the BX won’t cut it. I have narrowed it down to an L or an LX. Biggest positive for an LX is that it is smaller and would be better on my soft ground in the...

    Did I kill my BX2200 Transmission

    RMM for BX2200

    So I purchased a BX2200 a few years ago and it came with a MMM. I mow about 3 acres of my 5 acre property. There are a few trees around the house, but overall it is wide open and flat. Overall I am happy with the performance of the MMM, but I use the BX for a lot of other things besides...

    Small project this morning

    Always fun when I can help a friend out. Loaded up the BX2200 and headed over. Plan was to remove the sod in the area off the patio and around the pool deck. Then make a gravel walk way from the patio to the hose area, pool deck and shed. This was the first time really putting the new piranha...

    Are these the Gator Blades to get?

    I need to replace the blades on my bx2200 60" deck (RCK60). I have read people saying that Gator blades cut great, mulch things up more and even help keep the underside of the mower deck cleaner. I wanted to make sure I was looking at the right ones...

    Any Pond folk out there?

    I have a 1/2 acre pond on my property. The prior owner completely neglected the property and it was so grown up around it that you couldn't even see the pond. It was also completely covered in algae. Since I moved in I have cleared all around it, treated the pond with blue dye and enzymes...

    The rain finally let up enough for me to have a load of top soil delivered. 22 tons moved and spread in the garden with my BX2200. Next will be a load of compost and tilling.

    Friends don't let friends shovel dirt

    A good friend of mine had 4 yards of dirt dumped in his driveway to add to his garden. That's a lot of dirt to move with a shovel and wheel barrow, so I loaded up the BX and headed over. Made short work of it and didn't even break a sweat...... Best thing is it gave me a chance to figure out...

    BX2200 HST peddle vibration

    Hi all, So it is starting to warm up here, so mowing season has started. Machine is a BX2200 with about 1100 hours on it. Full fluid service was done with all kubota products about 100-200 hours ago. I have noticed what feels like some excessive vibration in the HST peddle. I only feel it when...

    Tips for well line?

    Got the BX and my towable backhoe out for the first bigger spring project. Running a new line from the well in to the house to get rid of the outside well house. I also think the old line is leaking since my well pump started running constantly and the system won’t build more than about 25psi...

    Stump removal

    So I purchased a towable backhoe to complement my BX2200. It was a little muddy out, but with more rain coming I wasn’t going to miss the chance to try out the new toy. Dug around all 4 sides and got it loose enough where I could almost pull it out with the backhoe Then I was able to use the...

    Towable Backhoe

    Might not technically be an attachment, but I use the BX to move it around the property. Got delivered on Friday. Put it together and tested it out today. It’s going to take some practice to get efficient with it, but still a whole lot better than a shovel.
