What I did was loosen everything and set the 3pt to the lowest position, take a reference mark, then move it to the highest position, and note that distance. Divided the distance of travel, and set the 3pt at the midpoint. Then slide both springs into the center and lock everything down. It...

I purchased a used BX2200 and I believe the lever that lifts the 3pt has never worked correctly. When I got the tractor, it would raise and lower the 3pt, but it would snap back into the full up position, I used it by keeping my hand on it to prevent that, but now decided I have to do something...

I got some of the bead sealer, it worked great. The instructions say you can put it on the outside the tire also. I broke the bead open and coated all the mating services with it, no more leaks. I am going to do the other 3 tires next chance. This stuff is messy, and it disolves rubber and...

I’m also having problems with slow leaks, which I tracked down to the rim beads. I purchased the BX2200 used, and I suspect it was run with low pressure in the tires which allowed dirt to work its way into the bead, from there it was all downhill. I had times where the pressure was too low...

I have a few hours on it now and I think it's great, of course my last one was a shovel. It's is a little slow, but has good reach and amazing power. The biggest short fall is it's lack of mobility, retractable stabilizers would be a big plus. I learned how to dig without needing anything on the...

can you post some pictures?

I think it's an amazing machine for the price, but needs improvements, which I enjoy doing anyway. I would be interested in seeing any others modifications. I was able to tear down a wall of an old house on the property. It punched through the wall easily and the lateral force just snapped the...

Finally got it in the dirt. It is a very strong machine for it's size. The biggest drawback is it's mobility. It does crawl around pretty good, but it has to be coupled to something with mass to dig. The rearranging of the wheels, stabilizers and coupling is very time consuming when preparing to...

Probably will just use the hitch, it's light in the back end, so I need something secure. I was thinking about mounting a hitch ball on the bucket so it would be more maneuverable. One nice thing about it is, when the wheels are on the front like in the picture and the boom is at the correct...

It's almost ready for the dirt. I add some protection where the lines run through the retaining ring, I noticed on my friends it was chaffing there. I added the blue cap over the hydraulic fill/vent plug to previent water from getting in, poor design. The joints all have grease fittings, but one...

IT'S HERE !!! :) Picked it up yesterday. The shipping bill said 1200#, I'm glad I didn't read that before I moved it. It was wrapped in bubble wrap, with loose parts and boxes inside a wooden pallet frame, amazing it didn't have any damage, the only thing is the grease caps on the wheel hubs...

An update ... it is supposed to be in tomorrow, 15 weeks, well see.;)

I ordered the kit from Kubota at $60+, it was the wrong set. The part #'s on the bag were right, just not the correct seals. I don't know if this was a single problem or they had a run of incorrect parts, Beware if you order a kit for LA211 bucket cylinder. I found the two seals that were...

The machine is over 10 years old, I believe it was left out in the weather a good portion of the time. The cylinder and shaft are both in good shape. The outer seal on the shaft looks like dryrot and the metal has some rust, I cleaned the rust off. I was wondering about the blue seal on the...

The bucket cylinder seal started leaking on my La211, I figured I would change all the seals since I had it apart. I purchased it used, and wondered how rough a previous life it had. Would anyone know if this is normal wear on a piston seal for a tractor with 300 hours?

Just an update, I seem to have lost my last post. I was told at first it would be in a couple of days, then two weeks, then it was coming from another store, then it was sold at the other store before it could be shipped, then there was none in the country It is going on 11 weeks now, they told...

Tomorrow will be 7 weeks .... still no trencher, Plenty excuses. It is supposed to be on the truck this Wednesday, if not I call corporate..... :(:confused::eek:

I stopped by a friends place last week, he's had one for a couple of years, just loves it. Here's some pix I took of it. Mine should be in next week :):):)

That is sooo cute, and it comes in flavors too.....;)

The local store said they sold 6 last year and no one returned any. Also they said the 20% off coupon could be used which would bring the price down to $2000. I'm thinking, if I make a 3 point hitch (with a piviot point) the tractor would give the hoe a firm backend support without putting any...
