    Post hole auger questions for a BX2380.

    I want to plant some small trees. Would a post hole auger be good for this? I'm thinking about a 6" but maybe an 8" would be a better size. Will a BX2380 power an 8" auger? Thanks!

    That steel plate on the front of my BX2380 frame is just begging for a tool box.

    Any ideas on a tool box and how to attach it without interfering with raising the hood?

    Looking for wrench set recommendations.

    I'm looking for a set of metric wrenches that are sort of a cross between the regular box end and open end wrenches. They're like a box end with a chunk cut out so you can slip the end over the threaded portion of a bolt or rod and move the wrench end over a nut to turn it. No idea if they...

    BX2380 needs to hook up 12 volt, 7.0 amp to pull behind sprayer.

    Please be patient with me. I'm new at this. I need some ideas on how to electrically hook up a 14 gallon sprayer built on its own trailer and provide 12 volts to the pump. Should I set up a connection from the BX2380 battery? I could use a deep cycle battery and mount it elsewhere with a...

    BX2380 50 hour maintenance - changing transmission fluid?

    I think I saw where some people are changing the transmission fluid at 50 hours, not just replacing the transmission oil filter as the Operator's Manual states. Is there a good reason for this?

    Which engine oil for BX2380?

    I'm still learning about diesel engines. The book calls for API CF or greater but CF is obsolete according to API. Which oil do you use in your BX2380? UPDATE: I got hold of the service manager at the dealership and he was very helpful with this so I have my answer. Thanks!

    What kind of filter wrenches for BX2380 50 hour maintenance?

    Looks like for the engine oil filter I need one that slips on the end of the filter and uses a ratchet and extension. Is that small size pretty common? Same for transmission filter wrench? Thanks.

    Vegetable garden: tiller or plow or disc or ???

    I have a vegetable garden that's around 1800 square feet. My back isn't what it used to be so I thought about getting an attachment for my BX2380. Tillers are expensive especially for a garden that small. Plus tillers create a hard pan at the bottom of the tine rotation and destroy the soil...

    I was told yesterday that they received it and it is ready. I go in tomorrow (Saturday) morning to sign on the dotted line. I hope it gets delivered Monday or Tuesday.

    Carry all.

    The specifications for the BX2380 say that the lift capacity of the 3 point hitch is 680 pounds at 24" behind the pin. Is that the lift arm pins or the top link pin? If it were the lift arm pins I would think they would have said 24" behind the pins. From what I'm seeing on carry alls it...

    BX2380 with R4 tires?

    Is a BX2380 with R4 tires an odd/rare combination? It's taking the dealership a while to get one. I thought this combination would be almost as popular as the BX2380 with turf tires. Is there any problem having R4 tires on this tractor?

    Documents that come with new BX2380?

    Am I going to get everything I need with the machine to tell me what/when I need to do service/maintenance? Any extra documentation I should get right off the bat or shortly after receiving the machine? Before arrival I'd like to have the correct grease for the gun if something special is...

    Post hole auger size?

    What would you consider to be the maximum size auger, practically speaking, for a BX2380? I will probably need a 6" hole to put in posts and to plant small trees in a field. I hope it will handle at least that size. What's your experience?

    Rototiller for BX2380?

    Can the BX2380 handle a rototiller? Do they make tiller's small enough for it? I know a tiller can be fairly demanding on a tractor.

    3-point hitch categories: 1 vs. 1N?

    What category of 3-point hitch does the BX2380 use? I thought it was a category 1. I'm seeing references to a 1N. Is that a Narrow version of a 1? If not, what does the N mean?
