    3 point forks

    Hi all, I'm looking at getting a set of pallet forks for the rear of my B4200, The ones I have found have a max load of 300kg, they say ideal for "small tractors". However they also say minimum of 30 HP. Your thoughts please?

    Water drum on 3-point

    I am considering ways of getting water to my garden and thought about making a saddle attachment for the 3-point to take a 220ltr plastic drum. My concern is whether or not it would take 220kg, assuming counter weights on the front. What is the weight / stress limit the mountings would...

    Mid Mount Mower B4200

    Please forgive my ignorance as I have yet to buy a MMM. All this talk in previous posts of operating the deck using the 3 point hydraulics is confusing me. I have a B4200, once I get the MMM is this going to by raised hydraulically or, as I assumed, manually with a lever of some sort? If someone...

    Mower deck

    Hi, I just mower my meadow with the B4200 and rear cutter and as usual am left with the cuttings all over the lawn. What is involved in adapting it to take a mid mount deck and collector?

    Mulching

    A bit of a daft question maybe, but what's the difference between topping, cutting and mulching? Which does my 36" rotary mower do? Thanks.

    Clutch drag.

    My first day of mowing through up some issues, the main one being the clutch operation. With the PTO engaged, each time I felt the urge to slow or stop, I applied brakes, dipped the clutch and it just kept going. Similarly whilst shifting between forward and reverse, clutch would not disengage...

    Rotary mower RPM

    Hi, today I fitted a new 3pt lift kit to my B4200, got the mower attached and set up and got to mowing for a couple of hours. I thought the mowar sounded a bit like the first car I ever owned ('64 Triumph Herald) resersing up the road. I was operating in the Low Rpm position. After a while I...

    Incline safety

    Hi, me being new to tractors and rear mower etc, I would like a little guidence on cutting a bank with a slight incline. i have a section at the end of my plot about 2 yards wide which is sloped. I ran my b4200 along the bottom of it and felt a little uneasy. I just don't know how stable they...

    Lift arms

    I bought a used 1mtr rotary mower for the back of my B4200, it's a French made Morgnieux TA1000. Even with it set at mid height I think that the lift arms are not going low enough to allow the mower to sit properly on its 3 wheels. The arms are 60cm (24"). Is there an adjustment on the arms to...

    B4200 attachments

    Hi, having just acquired my first Kubota tractor, I've begun looking for a 3 point finishing mower which are listed for micro tractors, but a good majority of them are for 15hp and upwards. Mine is I believe 12hp at the engine and 10hp? at the pto. What attachments are going to be suitable? At...

    Clutch operation

    Hi, I'm finding the clutch on my B4200 to be so sharp, it's almost like a switch, either in or out. It makes pulling away in the high range pretty tricky. My thoughts are that the cushion springs in the centre plate are shot??

    B4200 Hydraulic take off

    Hi, I'm a newcomer to the forum and to the world of mini tractors. I bought a B4200 yesterday and, whilst looking it over in the garden, I managed to figure out most of the controls, however I am baffled by one. There's a turn knob on top front of the transmission assy with an arrow on it which...
