Hey guys, I just recently purchased a 2005 B7610. First tractor, so all of this is new to me. Wondering if anyone can give me some comment, advise, issues or things to look out for regarding this tractor. Planning to use it on my hunt land and also side biz of bush hogging. Just purchased a Betstco flail mower and looking for a 5ft BH. It has a small Hydraulic leak that Im working on, looks simple enough but while working on it I notice the two cylinders on the bottom of the Hyd manifold (not sure of exact name) can someone tell me what these are for? Are they accumulators? Regarding the bucket, is there a way to upgrade the current bucket to a quick detachable one? Any kits out there worth buying? Anyone recommend getting the fluid in the tires? Is this a DIY thing? Im sure I will have other dumb questions later. :)

Thanks,
Kevin

Ed,

Welcome to the forum - there are fantastic people here that can answer ALL your questions. AND do not be afraid to ask the "so called dumb questions" - better to ask and be safe than find out the hard way as to what NOT to do!!!!



Fluid in tires is a great idea and can be DIY - only downside is for those cutting nice grass yards, but otherwise the benefits are huge!

Your loader is a LA352
You have a pin on bucket
There was never a SSQA or other Quick hitch made for that loader.
You could get a universal SSQA and have it adapted to the loader arms.
And have a SSQA plate added to the Bucket.

Note: Doing so will greatly reduce the lift ability of that loader!

DYI = windshield washer fluid.
NON DYI = Rim guard and other fluids.

Kevin - I have a B7500 with LA302 loader which is a predecessor to your B7610 and LA352. Jeri at www.mytractortools.com built a quick connect adapter for me that allows me to use BX-style buckets, forks and other attachments. We exchanged photos and measurements via email and he adapted and fabricated the quick connect for my B7500 (It may still be a one-of-a-kind). He also provided me with an adapter plate that my son welded onto my factory bucket, after cutting off the oem tabs. I now switch from bucket to forks to no attachment and back quickly and easily. Another benefit is that I now mow without removing the FEL frame.

Your Tach-N-Go link has an unusual response! Guess I'll have to remember to come back to it.

A tractor without quick arttach loader is like a home without air conditioning (and you live in the desert)!
