    Best Investment I Ever Made!

    I know - braggin' on your Kubota can bring on all sorts of mayhem. Bad storms, unplanned maintenance, swarms of locusts and the like. But about ten years ago I was all set to buy another ridin' lawn mower and a fella I worked with pestered on me for about a month talking me into buying a...

    B2620 Starter Solenoid Circuit

    Thanks, Bordercollie. Boy, you ain't kiddin'!! I went to Messick's and filled out the little form with my email. I had all 18 pages of the electrical system in three minutes! I can't believe they got an email out so quickly. And it was just what I was looking for.

    B2620 Starter Solenoid Circuit

    Does anybody have a wiring diagram for a 2010 B2620? Sometimes the starter solenoid won't engage. I checked the seat switch and its ok. I can't find the PTO switch, but I suspect that's the culprit. If I jump directly across the starter solenoid (battery side to top post), it engages fine...

    Ignition key question

    I just checked my 2004 BX2230. The key doesn't come out when it's ON. Could be that the key is worn, not the switch. Do you have the spare key to try? Carp

    The Day is Nearly Here!

    Nice ! I sure do like Kubota orange in any size! You look good on it - like a hand in a glove.

    Kubota Finally Broke

    Sorry to hear it too, Frank. It just won't be the same on the ZTR. Hope it isn't too serious.

    Engine valve adjustment specs.

    Nuts! I expected to see a picture of the "oh, crap" look on your face at the moment you found it. Carp

    Fwd / Rev Rocker Pedal - BX2230

    Thanks, Larry & Fred. I'll give it a look before I put the mower on in the Spring. I may have to enlist the help of my son to see it, it's getting harder to lie on my back and focus on anything close with these dadgumm bifocals! He ought to help me after I invested a month or two convincing...

    Who should suffer the loss?

    I agree with all of you. Trucking company without question. When I was a young feller, I ran my Ford Mustang through thirty yards of a neighbor's fence. Before I even had a chance to lick my own wounds, my old man had me out there fixin that fence, and no shortcuts either. He came out and...

    Fwd / Rev Rocker Pedal - BX2230

    Yeah, I've gotten used to it too, but it's an aggravation for wife when she wants to mow the lawn. And my own personal view is that if I keep the little things caught up and repaired, the tractor will stay really nice. If I tolerate little 'bads', the tractor will deteriorate over time. We...

    Fwd / Rev Rocker Pedal - BX2230

    My BX2230 stops abruptly whether going forward or reverse. I asked my dealer about it and he said there is a small gas shock underneath the floorboard that acts sort of like a cushion valve to smooth the stop after you take the pressure off with your foot. If the shock is bad it lets the...

    Pictures, I hope . . .

    Well, I don't see the pics yet, but this may be the Firefox thing. I'm following the destructions to the letter, so maybe it'll work. The first pic is the BX2230 as I bought it in 2004. Came with a 54" mower deck too, but it's not on it. I waited most of my life to get in a position to have...
