    BX23S - Can't rehook backhoe flat-faced hydo fittings?

    I've got a newish BX23S that has about 14 hours on it. I've already removed the backhoe 5 times and had no issues reattaching it the previous 4. This time I can't seem to get the hydro lines connected. I've released pressure on the tractor side and tractor is turned off. I've also moved all...

    New BX23S: lifting generator with FEL?

    I have a generator (~350lbs) I need to lift with the FEL of my new (delivered last Saturday) BX23S. The genset has an eyebolt, as an intentional lift point, at the top center of balance. I’ve seen on larger tractors, with thicker gauge steel FEL buckets, chains with hooks, hooked over the...

    BX23S: Backhoe removal - can't reconnect hose loop for 3pt circuit...

    QUICK NOTE - THIS IS RESOLVED. Explanation below original post. Main take away, if you can't get the bypass plugged in, it *could* be several things (listed in responses below)- but in MIGHT be that the steel tube got bent by improper routing of the backhoe hoses by either Kubota or the...

    New BX23S: Not sure I purchased best QA skid steer fork set...

    I purchased a new BX23S tractor package from a dealer last Friday and it arrived on Saturday. Thrilled with the purchase, but have some concerns about the QA pallet fork set I ended up with and am wondering if I should have gone a different direction. To start, I believe the dealer was...

    New BX: How exactly does the loader level work?

    My new BX23S was delivered yesterday. Had the dealer add the loader bucket level rod as they prepped tractor. This is my first tractor with a loader. (My first Kubota was a used B2410 that came w/o loader). So the tractor did not come with any instructions for understanding the rod. Is there...

    My brand new BX23S (backhoe model) was delivered at 08:30 this morning. Had a great time going over the implements and trying everything out - but have one major concern by the end of the day - the tractor seems to want to stall out when backing up (reverse) and the reverse paddle (for lack of...

    New BX23S arrives tomorrow - Break-In advice?

    The new BX23X arrives tomorrow. Does anyone have any break-in advice or maintenance that exceeds the service intervals in the owner guide? On my gas engines I usually run lightly for a couple of hours then change oil. I’ve not owned a new diesel or hydro before - so not sure what I can do to...

    Drive-over Deck compatabilty with BX23S? (subframe issue?)

    I was told today by a dealer that the 54" inch drive-over deck is not very popular with the BX23S (Backhoe model of the BX line) - due to clearance issues between the drive-over deck components and parts of the Backhoe model specific subframe. The specific tractor and deck models are: - 2019...

    New BX - what should come with factory mulch kit?

    I’m waiting on delivery of a BX23 (BX backhoe model) with 54” mid-mount deck. I went ahead and “splurged” on the mulching kit too - dealer installed. $450 is steep and reading though posts here I can’t get a good idea of what the kit should come with. I know there are baffles installed on deck...

    I'm in the final stages of purchasing a BX23 (tractor, loader, backhoe) from a local dealer. They are not the most communitive people - I feel like I can barely get answers to really important questions - so I'm posing this here. I have a LOT of rocks on my property. I purchased the...

    Need a WSM (or advice) for a RCK60-30B - or similar deck

    I'm pretty new to Kubota tractors and the forum. I need some help with my RCK60-30B deck. I bought a well used 2410 with the belly mower recently. The gear oil seal on the bottom of the gear box has gone bad. I was putting oil in it and it all ran out onto the floor. Unfortunately, I mowed for...

    Transmission Oil Strainer on B2410 - any advice on removal for service?

    I have a new to me B2410 I purchased a week ago. I've about done all of the fluid service - and am wrapping up the HST trans fluid change. The manual calls for the strainer to be removed and cleaned. I'm just having a really hard time getting the strainer loose! It doesn't help that it is...

    B2410 - front wheel drive = 4WD?

    I just bought a used 2410 4WD HST. I was also able to get a manual from the dealer. I noticed one of the levers engages "front wheel drive" mode according to the manual - but no mention of 4WD anywhere. Am I to assume the tractor is always in real wheel drive and "front wheel drive adds the...

    I just bought a used 2410 with a belly mower - model RCK60-30B - and have been seeing a lot of videos on Youtube where the various Kubota decks are "drive over" to get he mower back under the tractor vs sliding it in from the side. Is my RCK60-30B a drive on? With the pulley covers on I...

    Bought B2410 - don't understand the Hydro fluid change process from Op Manual

    I've just purchased my first tractor (aside from some old 1970's era cub cadets) a *very* used B2410 4WD HST. I stopped at the dealership on the way home and picked up all fluids and filters to do a complete service on it before I use it. I also was able to get a copy of the Operators Manual...
