    Changing oil in tiller?

    Has anyone changed the gear oil in the gearbox and side gearbox on a King Kutter tiller? I've had a used tiller for a few years now and have always stored it inside. I till probably 20 acres or so a season in my area as a side job and have never changed the gear oil. I called King Kutter and...

    B3200 Leaking Rear Remote

    I noticed the factory installed rear remotes, specifically the detent one, has a minor leak. How do I go about repairing? Is there an o-ring behind the bottom cap shown in the pictures?

    B3200 HST Pedal Sticking

    My B3200 HST pedal sticks occasionally/randomly. When I press down to go forward, there is resistance, and the pedal won't move forward. I can push down to go to reverse, and that will work, and then the pedal will allow me to move forward again. The pedal grease fittings are kept greased...

    PTO Extension for Pat's Easy Hitch Setup?

    I recently put a Pat's Easy Hitch setup and hydraulic top link on my B3200. This works great for my non-PTO implements, but with spring around the corner, I need to get my tiller ready. Being a first time tractor owner, I'm unsure if using a PTO extension is okay to use with this Pat's system...

    Seatbelt Retracting?

    I have a B3200 with around 550 hours. The retractable seatbelt is stubborn and won't always retract without pulling on it multiple times. It looks like the retraction mechanism is sealed and not meant to be taken apart. Has anyone been able to clean theirs well enough to fix the issue or is...

    B3200 with Backhoe, Rear Remotes, and a grapple?

    I have a B3200 with a BH76 backhoe and factory rear remotes. Can I add hoses to one of the rear remotes and run a grapple while the backhoe is attached? The previous owner used the rear remotes for a stump grinder.

    B3200 Top & Tilt Cylinders?

    Has anyone added top & tilt cylinders to their B3200? The previous owner installed rear remotes and I thought it might be handy to have top & tilt cylinders when box blading. Does anyone have a link to the correct size cylinders I'd need to do this?

    Need Retaining Clips for B3200 3PT Stabilizers

    I was out bush hogging over the weekend and managed to loose both retaining clips that hold my B3200 3PT stabilizers. I found a similar style on Messicks (Item 70 snap pin), but the ones on my tractor were a locking style (for what good they did). Does anyone have a part # for the locking...

    2011 B3200 hydrostatic pedal issues

    My 2011 B3200 with 220 hours hydrostatic pedal has been acting up. It won't return to neutral when lifting off the pedal, causing the tractor to shut down anytime I get off it with the parking brake set. I had to bypass the neutral safety switch last weekend just to get it back to the shop...

    Acceptable wear limits on BH76 Pivots?

    I have a BH76 that has less than 150 hours on it. While using it today, I noticed the dipper was moving back and forth nearly 1/8 - 1/4". There are what appears to be large shims between the boom and dipper pivot point. When I got home, I checked the boom and there is a little play there too...

    Best way to re-grade roadside?

    I'm clearing my 5 acre property to build on and I'm trying to re-grade approximately 450' of roadside. I cleared it all by hand using a chainsaw and brush saw. I'm back grading with my B3200 to pull up a lot of shallow rooted bush honeysuckle which is working pretty good. However, I'm wanting...

    Landscape rake tines bent

    I've managed to slightly bend the tines on my landscape rake. Is this a common problem? I've been using it to rake debris left behind by a skid steer with a mulching head.

    BH76 Backhoe Rubber Stabilizer Pad Part #?

    Does anyone have a part # for a BH76 backhoe rubber stabilizer pad? I checked Messicks, but couldn't find it on their website.

    Charging for tractor services and manual labor?

    I'm getting into doing some side jobs with the tractor and was wondering how others charge for a mix of manual labor and tractor work? I was thinking charging for the tractor using the hour meter. I'd keep up with my total hours for the day, say 8 hours total work time. If the tractor had 3...

    Best way to remove roots from ground?

    I've been working to clear 5 acres we plan to build on in a few years. I've dug up the stumps, and now I'm trying to remove roots and debris and level the soil. I graded a section with the box blade (teeth all the way down) and this did get some of the roots up. I'm thinking using the...

    Need a couple pins for BH1976 Thumb

    I just bought a BH1976 mechanical thumb off Ebay. It doesn't include the pin where the adjustable bar pins to backhoe boom or the pin that mounts thumb to backhoe pivot. Can anyone find a link or parts diagram to the BH1976? I looked on Messicks, but I didn't find anything. Maybe I'm not...

    Suggestions on excavating on the side

    I'm interested in farming myself out for basic tractor services such as light excavating, grading, and brush clearing. Other than liability insurance, what should I be considering before taking on any jobs. I'm thinking about smaller jobs that I could knock out in a weekend or two, not digging...

    Tightening Loader Bucket Bolts?

    I picked up this 2011 B3200 a few months back and many of the loader bolts retaining the cylinders are half way backed off. After 40 hours or so that I've put on the tractor, they don't appear to have backed off any more. Should I tighten the nuts back down or are they this way from the factory?

    Source for OEM LA504 loader sticker

    Are there any online places to buy a replacement bucket level sticker for my LA504 loader? I'm going to have a guy reinforce the bucket lip and weld a couple hooks to it. I think the level sticker is right in the way of where he'll need to weld.
