Hi all,
I have bought Kubota Bx 2360 with 54" mid mower as a replacement for Arians Gt17. It was a great mower and so advanced for 25 years old machine.Mowing deck adjustment were perfect and I mainly used the float settings. Now with Kubota I am disappointed how primitive setup this machine has. The dial up contraption is a disaster and operating 3PH and mower is so primitive for relatively expensive machine. Tractor it self is good and proven quality. Owners manual lack clear explanation how to adjust mower heights outside of the 4 steps as my is still too high even in lowest No1. The belt is not completely covered and easily damaged from debris.
The deflector flop has no lifting mechanism and it is necessary after market modification. ROPE is not foldable and no option to change on new machine.
No toolbox installed, I just put one behind the seat today. So my opinion is this. It is good machine except the mower deck and lack of competition has taken pressure from Kubota to improve and justify the high cost of product and spare parts. I have started to rectify the short comings and I am going to do what should be done by Kubota in first place. My Kubota dealer is a very good and reliable business and very helpful in all respects. That is a big +. Regards Frank
