    Flat Face hydraulic fittings on new F2690

    I tried to connect a sweeper to my tractor and realized it comes with these new fittings. Then I find out the male end that I need to change is $125 each. They are made by Alfagomma. Tried the ones at Princess Auto but don’t fit. They were $30. Ended up changing the tractor back to the...

    Brand new F2690 with no answers in manuals

    I got delivery of my new F2690 and found no answers so next best thing is this forum. I have a mower deck that is suppose to tip up for cleaning. Videos on line have a bar included to get this done. I see no such accessory or other hardware to enable it easily. There is a fixture as pictured...

    So I just had my new mower delivered. StartEd reading the manual and the first topic is the DPF. Sounds scary and quite confusing right now. Please tell me it’s no big deal. From the initial read it sounds like I‘Ll be doing nothing but keeping an eye on it and worry when it goes into...

    What’s the difference in left/right auger on F5220 snowblower.

    I’m restoring F5220 snowblower and noticed just now that one is badly bent. As I started to assemble it I had no idea there is a difference between right and left auger. I guess I’m replacing the bent one as the price is reasonable. So how do I figure out what side is what. I haven’t a...

    Front quick hitch on F Series

    Anybody have an idea why the F5212 has a spot for two bolts on each side while I have one that has one big hole on each side. This hitch will be obsolete as per my previous post.

    F2690 quick hitch

    I’m in the process of buying a F2690. As I was looking for a used Quick Hitch (F5212) I noticed some have one hole in the mounting bracket while others have 2 smaller holes. These holes are used to bolt the hitch to the arms. Pictured here is a 2 hole variety. Do both fit the FSeries. Does the...

    Kubota L2173A snowblower

    Anybody know what this blower fits on. I tried online but no mention of this model. I have a L2026A sweeper which fits on a F series tractor. Would this blower work on the F Series. Even my dealer wouldn’t commit to what it fit but rather tried to sell me a new one for $7000. Appreciate any...

    GF5226 on F series mower

    The GF5226 is a 48” front mount sweeper for the GF1800 mower. The GF mower PTO along with F series mowers turn in the opposite direction as the BX mowers. Has anyone have a GF5226 sweeper mounted on a F series tractor. The F series mower does have the L2062 sweeper but it is a 60” . Just...

    GF 1800 front hydraulic option

    I bought a new GF 1800 in 2002 and added an option to put on a hydraulic operated blade. Back then it mounted beside the 2 controls on the right and you needed to cut a hole in the sheet metal. Metal tubing was provided with the kit and it made it a nice install. It was called a GF5222 kit. I...

    Gearbox parts for GF3250

    Its been a rough road for my quest to get a sweeper for my GF1800. It started with half the PTO shaft missing and now I find out due to my own stupidity that the gearbox is seized. I started taking it apart but don't see any parts available other then a new box ($1100) I'm thinking I should...

    Aftermarket PTO shaft for sweeper

    I found a GF 3250 sweeper for only $350 US. Half the PTO shaft was missing . A complete new shaft from Kubota is $600. Any place out there where these can be purchased at a more reasonable price. My snowblower PTO shaft will work but a hassle moving shaft around everytime I want to change...

    GF3250 interface to GF1800

    BX2537 turning wrong way of GF1800

    I just bought a used BX2537 sweeper to use on my new concrete driveway when the snowfall is not too much. Don't want to scratch that concrete with my blower skid shoes. I hooked it up on my quick hitch and used the PTO shaft from my snowblower. When I got it spinning the broom is going the...

    GF 1800 leaf catcher good or no good

    I have a line on a GF 3055 grass catcher for $500. Are they any good. Fall is here and I usually blow the leaves to a big pile. Does this catcher work well. Does it mulch the leaves so the bags fill slowly. Anybody have one and provide any advice.

    GF1800 lifting capacity

    I have a front mount GF1800e. It lifts my mower with no problem. When I installed a quick hitch and mounted on the snowblower it barely lifts it. I need to increase engine speed to get it all the way up. Then I bought a front blade. It's a B2160 which might weigh 300-400 lbs. No luck at all...

    GF 1800 Snowblower quick hitch or not

    Many years ago I bought a new GF1800 and it came with a TG2760 snowblower that had a subframe that attached to the tractor much like the mower. Years later after I sold this unit I am again searching for a blower. I now have a 2008 model GF and want to purchase a blower for it. The Gf5225 comes...
