    Can not get mower deck to level front to back

    If you read the original post, they are following the correct process but can't adjust enough because there are no more threads. I am running into the same issue and have stared at the manual for a very long time.

    Can't get 48" MMM Level

    Oh, I have it. That's where I got the 47mm spec for the front linkage from. It does talk about the front to back level and using the front linkage to adjust it. Problem is, there's no way I can get it in spec - I'll run out of threads. I do see one potential issue. I was using the center...

    Can't get 48" MMM Level

    Thanks for the reply! I can get better photos of the rear linkage when I get home. I haven't messed with the linkage itself yet, only reattached to the deck for the spring. It's about a year old. I never leveled it front to back when I got it, but when I put it back on for this season I...

    Can't get 48" MMM Level

    Could this be related to the rear link? I am having a hard time finding the stopper shown in the manual to check adjustment. If I raise the three point, set the dual to TOP, then lower it, it does drop a decent amount. That makes me think there is room for the settings to be higher than they are.

    Can not get mower deck to level front to back

    I am running into exactly the same thing and didn't see your thread before posting my own. I am measuring at the center blade and am still 1/4 inch high in the front and am just about out of adjustment on the front arm. Mine is the 48". I am wondering if adjusting the rear link would help...

    Can't get 48" MMM Level

    I've got a BX1880 with the 48" MMM. I figured I'd level it going into this season and I just can't get it right. Here's what I did: Ensured equal tire pressure before starting (14 F/ 17 R). Set front link nut/thread distance to 47mm (measured with a digital caliper). Checked fender to ground...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Ordered a Bro-Tek rear skid plate. Figured that's a good idea to protect the fan when I'm clearing snow in the winter. In the summer the MMM makes it less likely for something to get up there and damage it. Also ordered R2 Edge Tamers and poly pads. I found the loader worked pretty well for...

    Anyone have a BXPanded FEL Dolly?

    I'll be honest - I'm not sure what I think of this yet. It's well built for sure. I was able to get the loader off of the machine and onto the dolly pretty quickly. It fits it well and does make it easy to maneuver. However - I had an absolutely awful time getting the loader back on...

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    Dealer called me - tractor's fixed. They said the fuel pump was indeed the issue. They're bringing it back to me tomorrow. They said no charge, it's a brand new machine and it shouldn't have happened. Very happy with them so far between sales and how they dealt with this issue.

    BX23S Loader Valve Leaking

    My serial number ends in Hxxxx, not a 5-digit number. I'm guessing that's because they passed the 99999 number and had to start using letters and my machine has the revised part? I only bought it a few months ago and it looks like the manufacture year was 2022.

    Truck / trailer questions

    MA does that. The value they use is typically way under book value, though - particularly after the first couple years. They take MSRP and depreciate it by a set percentage. Year 2 is 60%, 3 is 40, then 25, then 10. So, after 5 years you could have a vehicle that was originally 75k but in...

    Truck / trailer questions

    I had a 2011 Tacoma 4.0 - TRD Sport Double Cab 6 ft bed - for quite a while. I towed at its limits a few times (~6000-6500 lbs) and it did better than expected for its size and power. It might still be my favorite all around vehicle. The only thing I recall really disliking was the seating...

    Truck / trailer questions

    MA is super easy to register as homemade, basically no questions asked up to 3k. Past that and there is a one time inspection. No trailer inspection here on mass produced trailers unless the GVWR is over 10k.

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    That's what I have. Been using it since I got the tractor.

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    I don't get any reduced flow from the tank side of the filter. I get really strong flow from the line going into the pump from the tank (past the first filter), and if I reconnect the line and disconnect from the outlet side of the pump it's also as strong as I would expect it to be from the...

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    Dealer says mine is the next machine to go in, so I'm hoping I have it back toward the end of next week. Figures it'd have a failure during a really busy time of year for them. Meanwhile, I used my little electric Makita pushmower to do the lawn because it was getting high again. I only have...

    Truck / trailer questions

    I pay more to register my trailer than my truck. $120/year for a small car hauler - 6000 lb GVW. Truck is $100 for two years and that's only because I have special plates and $40 of that is a charity contribution. Normal plates are $60 for two years in MA.

    Anyone have a BXPanded FEL Dolly?

    I ordered one of these today. Website says 4-6 week lead time, but I'm excited to get it. I'll update with my thoughts when it arrives.

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    Bleeding it worked. It starts and runs again - idles fine, got the deck and loader up. If you increase the throttle, you can tell it isn't quite right - it's kind of lazy to increase RPMs and such. At least it's good enough for the dealer to more easily load it. The guy who helped me with it...

    BX1880 Fuel Issue

    If I were actually replacing the pump, I would. Dropping it was good enough to get at the lines and electrical connection at least to make sure it wasn't a blockage. I am at about 11. Fortunately, it only started acting up at the very end of my project today, so it didn't really cause any...
