WSM: Color Photos?

Sodark · Oct 18, 2018

So I need a Workshop Manual for my B2650 (ROPS). My dealer wants $111 + $18 S&H (I assume that's rush delivery via helicopter). I've been looking at the Manualslib version which includes COLOR photos. I asked the service tech if this $129 + tax version featured color pictures and genuine leather with gold plated 3-ring binder (OK I only asked about the color pictures but I was tempted). He informed me it is only black and white. Now I can get a B&W copy of this from ebay for a fraction of that cost, but I'm wondering, is there a full color hard-copy of this thing available somewhere? And if so, do they offer financing? I assume I'll need it...

Thanks in advance!

Hah! $322+ for color printing at FedEx/Kinkos. Screw it, I'll just take my laptop or tablet out with me. If they sold a color copy for the price of the B&W, I'd buy it. I'll just print the B&W copy myself I guess. Crazy.

Dave - he has the new B2650, not the L.....
I had to look twice myself when I saw the GST on your WSM.

Dave- trust me, I can relate.

You’re always a meticulous resource. I figured it was just senior moment. We all have them.

Very nice come-back! The OP should be grateful.

Does anyone know why Kubota uses the same numeric model number for two different series of tractors like in this instance: a L2650 and a B2650?

You have to stop playing with those mental blocks!

It's just that there is only so many numbers and both the B2650 and the L2650 and about 26 HP and they are both a 50 series, they are just a different class.

The L 50 series was actually broken in two runs:
First run
L2050
L2250
L2550
L2850

Second run
L2350
L2650
L2950
L3450
L3650

There is probably more of the B's and L's that match numbers.

I think the L3250 was in the first run too.

The factory WSM's usually don't have color photos. They use color on hydraulic diagrams showing flow paths and pressure regimes etc.

I have a Kubota's training manual on major systems & components that has a few color photos.
