    LX3310HSDCC Ballast quandary

    So I was using the Ballast box (loaded with 5 sidewalk blocks) that I had from my B2601 on my new LX. Seemed to work okay. Took the loader off and put on the snowblower. Unfortunately, with the ballast box on it won’t fit in the garage. I was considering having beet juice added to the rears...

    Flail Brand question

    I’m looking for a flail to mow ditches and trail through the bush/pasture. Seems like choices in Western Canada are limited to Maschio GIRAFFA S SI 120 or a Beco 48” boom. The Maschio is almost twice the price, but local, while the Beco is shipped from Ontario. I’d be interested in opinions...

    R4 vs R14

    I’m trying to decide on which tire to get for a new LX3310 cab. I have had R4s on my B2601 for the last 5 years and they mostly have served well. I’m not particularly concerned about impact on my yard, as I mow with a Grasshopper. What is the relative “toughness“ and puncture resistance of the...

    LX2963 chute deflector

    I’m looking at upgrading to a new LX3310 cab tractor with a LX2963 snowblower. The dealer has listed the remote chute deflector control as BL7522. That part apparently is a “Hyd Chute Deflector w/Electric Selector”. As I will also be having having a 3rd function installed for my grapple, I don’t...

    Wheel Spacer-what to buy?

    So, it's become evident that I need to purchase some wheel spacers to install chains on the B2601. Searches bring up a variety of brands: Bora, Bro-Teck, Stahl, Tracks Company. Made out of either aluminum or steel. So, what are your recommendations and experiences? Thanks.

    "Jack" or lift placement point?

    Snowblower removal

    Very much a noob question. As part of the purchase, the dealer installed my B2782B (63 inch) snowblower. As it "appears" that spring is here, I want to put the loader back on and get to work with some fence and tree removal. So, do I need to remove the are bolted on to the tractor-at quick...

    Snowblower for B2601

    With winter around the corner, I'm looking for a snowblower for my B2601. The dealer is suggesting a B2782B (63 inch). The Kubota Canada website doesn't list that model, and lists the BX2750D as the only snowblower for the B2601. So, are all of the B and BX series snowblowers compatable with my...

    Kodiak Rough Cut Mower Questions

    So I have a 60inch Kodiak standard duty rough cut mower. I've been told to check the gearbox for lube-remove the plug and inspect for EP-0 grease level. There are two "plugs" on the gearbox; one is a small plug with a square end, found about 1/2 way up the gearbox, the other is the plug that is...

    Tow behind rough cut mower

    So, I was thinking about buying a rough cut mower, and got to thinking that some of the ditch that I need to mow might be too steep to safely mow. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with one of the tow behind rough cuts that is self powered-ie Swisher, Kunz, etc. How well do they...

    Implement Sizing

    So, I've had my B2601 for a couple of weeks now and am looking to add some implements and attachments. The question/concern I have is the difference between the recommendations in the manual and what the dealer is recommending. For a box blade, the manual says a 54" and the dealer says go 60"...

    Rough cut mower questions

    So, I know that this probably seems like a bizarre question, but how "finished" is the cut of a rough cut mower? I need one for some of the work around the place, but also have a lawn to contend with-the lawn is far from "golf green manicured".

    B2620-b2650

    So, I've been looking and reading for a while and 'think' I've narrowed down to these two. (I had originally been looking at the Bx2670, but have concluded that it might be too small for some of the loader work.) The main differences that I can see are size, and some lifting capability (and...

    SCUT or CUT

    So, some background information to start: currently have a John Deere 318 with mower, rototiller, and single stage snowblower (and an older sears lawn tractor that is used only for mowing). It's getting a little long in the tooth, and I'd like to get something with a bit more capability. The...

    Older models

    So, I'm wondering if there is a site that compares older, discontinued models to the newer ones or shows the replacement models and upgrades? Specifically, I'm curious about the B20, and what it's current replacement is. Thanks.
