    Stump bucket on a BX?

    I had heard that using a pressure washer to remove the dirt is the way to go before attempting to cut the roots. I'm planning on using a reciprocating saw with a pruning blade to cut roots along with an axe. The stump bucket seems like it would make the process a lot quicker.

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    When I compare the CRI with the artillian photo in one of the replies it seems that the artillean one has a triangular shaped piece welded inside the bucket for added strength. The CRI doesn't have this piece. The things I like about the CRI are (1) the teeth on the sloped sides, (2) that it is...

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    The one from CRI is a 3 - 4 week lead time. The company is working 7 days a week to try and catch up with their backlog.

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    Thank you all for the advice. Buying a stump grinder is not an option and using the type that you stand behind is not an option. Did this once, never again. I am going to have a grinder come in and handle the large stumps and it seems like it a stump bucket on a BX2380 might not handle the...

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    I'll look into stump grinding but in my area it has gotten pretty expensive following the storms. The reason I was considering the stump bucket was because my stump removal needs will be continuing for a couple of years. Initially I probably have 30 - 40 to remove with at least that many...

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    Thanks for sending the pictures. Initially I saw the artillian bucket and it looked like it would be perfect. The problem I have with it is it only fits on the artillian frame. I have Kubota pallet forks and frame as well as a LandPride grapple so I really don't want to buy another frame. The...

    Stump bucket on a BX?

    I have numerous stumps to remove and have come across this Stump Bucket attachment for a BX. https://coldrollindustrial.com/products/compact-tractor-stump-buckets I'm wondering if anyone has any experience removing stumps with this on a sub compact tractor? A lot of my stumps are in the...

    bx2380 airflow direction

    I'm sure this is probably a stupid question but I just purchased a "radiator genie" to clean my 2380 radiator. In the instructions it says to backwash the radiator. Based on where the radiator is and the pre screen I assume the airflow is moving from the seat to the engine so the opposite should...

    Location of third function coupling on BX2380

    When I purchased my BX2380 I had the dealer add the third function capability. My question for other 2380 owners is this, where is your third function coupling located? I'm probably using the wrong term for the coupling but I am referring to the junction where the hydraulic hoses are...

    BX2380 fuel filter relocation

    After experiencing the "joy" of replacing the rear fuel filter on my 2380 I am considering the kit produced by Botaproducts to relocate it. https://bxtractorparts.com/shop?olsPage=products%2Fbx-fuel-filter-relocation I'm curious if anyone has installed a kit like this and your opinions. My...

    FEL not level with BX2380

    I do not have the KTAC insurance. I looked through my paperwork and it appears an application sheet was in the documentation but I do not remember discussing it. The only other insurance I have would be homeowners but I am not sure that would apply. With that in mind, the KTAC sounds like a good...

    KTAC insurance - worth it?

    I am a new owner of a BX2380 and am wondering if the KTAC insurance is a good value? I realize it's hard to tell what calamities might happen in the future, this from someone who is dealing with major damage from a couple of tornadoes, but I would appreciate any insight others with more...

    FEL not level with BX2380

    Thank you everyone for writing. I have rechecked the tire pressure and they are spot on. I received the tractor in January and did not think anything of the discrepancy until I spoke with someone with a skid steer. Turns out that skid steers use a much closer tolerance and mounting bracket than...

    FEL not level with BX2380

    I am just curious if there is a level of tolerance regarding FEL not being level with the tractor. Ever since I have owned my tractor I noticed that when putting the bucket down the right side would touch the ground first. I also noticed the same thing when putting various attachments on the FEL...

    bx2380 chains?

    I am a new owner of a 2380 and today was the first time I got to try it plowing snow. The was only 2"-3" on the driveway but I had minimal traction. I am using the plow attached to the FEL with unweighted turf tires. I do have a ballast box with about 300 lbs. of weight on the back. I have been...

    BX or B, identify a 20 year old tractor

    Thanks, for link. I'm afraid it's a mute point as my wife has spoken and it's the BX2380 we are going with. She feels much more comfortable mowing with the lower center of gravity.

    BX or B, identify a 20 year old tractor

    Mystery solved. I was able to track down the owner and it's a B2400 that was purchased in '98. Now my question is, does anyone know how that compares with today's models? Did Kubota make a BX series in '98?

    BX or B, identify a 20 year old tractor

    I am new to this forum and am looking for some advice. I live on a little over 8 acres with 2.5-3 of them mowed. My property is relatively flat with some minor slope to it. This past Fall we were hit by a tornado that did substantial damage. A rough estimate is we lost around 100 trees. During...
