I used a 20 gallon trash can filled with concrete-it weighs about 275# used a standard bar and top link connected with rebar inside.

We live on 5 acres that is mostly wooded. For many years, I used an electric "toy" leaf blower with multiple cords snaking everywhere all around the house and shop areas.. My wife bought me a Stihl backpack blower and what a difference!! What used to take almost a full day now takes about 1.5...

I have a B2601 and wrote an earlier post about Pat's Quick Hitch. I bought a unit and love it. I use it with older implements that do not fit the quick hitch measurements as well as a newer land Pride rotary cutter. After initial adjustments, Pat's system works great for me. Be sure and buy...

I installed a pats quick hitch on our B2601. My top link was OK for all of my implements. But I did have to get a 6 inch extension on my PTO. To use my land pride, rotary cutter. everything works fine and I love Pats quick hitch.

Thanks again to everyone that offered advice. I think my water in the oil adventure is over. My wife and I “fixed” it tonight. We took the top off of the gearbox-- 4 Bolts and a hammer tap and the interior of the box and gears were accessible. We got a cheapo pump (next day A, $6) and...

Thanks to everyone for their replies and advice. I did take out the side plug and indeed the oil reservoir was WAY OVERFILLED. Creamy, beige oil/water streamed out for more than a minute. I have ordered a pump and will remove all of the old oil/water mixture and add fresh gear oil. I will...

I have a new Land Pride RCR1248 rotary cutter that I have just used for the third time. It sits outside uncovered. When disconnecting and putting it away, I noticed that the top of the gear box was covered in a whitish , milky looking liquid. Every time I have seen that in the past, it has...

We also have 5 acres and a B2601. Our property has several cleared areas (house site, driveways, power line) and is mostly a hardwoods forest. Our property has a power line running through it and we maintain it with a Land Pride rotary cutter (“bush hog’). Our gravel driveways are a total of...

You got a great tractor at a reasonable price. The tractor will make you smile long after the cost that bothers you has been forgotten. I bought a B2601, FEL and pallet forks for $21,712 in April, 2022 and haven't looked back. It has done everything we needed on our 5 wooded acres. I went...

I have owned and used tractors since 1982. I have zero experience with the BX series. I purchased a new B2601HSD with FEL in April 2022.I also use pallet forks, rear blade, boom pole, bush hog and ballst box with multiple hand tools capacities. I use the tractor for lots of chores on our 5...

thanks for the replies. Glad to clear up the lifting point location. I ordered a Pat's unit today. I also ordered a PTO extension and a 20" top link. this forum has been a lot of help for me- my first Kubota, but had multiple old tractors since 1988. The b2601 is much nicer than my '63 MF35. I...

I have B2601 and am considering a Pat’s Quick Hitch. I have read many reviews, watched You tube videos, etc. I can’t use a standard quick hitch because most of my implements are not compatible.(they are OLD) Does anyone have any specific comments-pro or con, particularly if they have a b2601 or...

My manual does not list any maintenance until 50 hours. I have read and heard about a first maintenance at 20 hours. What is the consensus here? i want to take care of this equipment properly. so I feel like I need to do a t least a preliminary "pre-maintenance'" at 20 hours. I assume for the...

Thanks to all-I guess that I was over thinking the issue. I did get both sites to work. thanks Vann

this is the site I was trying to use https://apps.kubotausa.com/illustrated-parts/ Thank you for the new site-it works Vann

I have tried multiple times to use the Kubota illustrated parts site with no success. I tried to enter the required info and have always gotten "no response". Under "model" I have listed "B2601HSD-1" under "Description" i entered "B series compact tractor" under the "serial number" I entered...

Good question! There are definitely drain holes in the bottom of each pvc tube. I also kept the trash can lid and cut a slot out for the top link. the slot is covered with a piece of old tire inner tube so not much rain will get in regardless of the drains being there. Vann

I have a B2601 and went through the same questions. I ended up with a ballast unit that weighs approximately 450# and has multiple tubes for tools, a trailer hitch, scabbards for 2 chains saws, chain hooks and a box for miscellaneous tools. I used the base weights as shown in the owner's manual...

I have a new B2601. I don’t use a mower and I have no experience with the other models you are considering. I use a 48” rotary cutter on about 2 acres of powerline, the FEL and a boom pole for moving logs to be cut for firewood. The B2601 does everything that I ask it to do without hesitation...

I made the cover using 2 layers of reflectix and the special tape that is made for reflectix. I got both at Lowe's. I think I used 2 rolls of reflectix and still have some tape left from the original roll. I wrapped the reflectix around the base of the cooler I made a separate top that...
