I bought a B2910 in August this year. It came with a Kubota 60"mmm and grass catcher, a Landpride brush hog and a Leinbach post hole digger. I have NO /w3tcompact/icons/mad.gif manuals for the brush hog or the post hole digger. And nothing on the mmm. The tractor manual is a 65 page thing that is 25% "warning: to not mow with your hands under the mower deck" type of information. It is somewhat useful, but, honestly it is not enough.
I read in another thread about ordering manuals. Please, someone tell me that what is available, is better than what they gave me? /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif I called the service department where I bought my tractor when I could not figure out how to change implements. I asked about this manual thing, and complaining that the glossy photo brochures for selling these tractors, was far better than the over xeroxed photos in the manual for my grass catcher. Wouldn't think that the folks who fork over the big bucks, would get the best photos...in their service manual??? /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif
The service guy gave me no indication that a better manual was available, so I had to visit my favorite web site here to say "HELP". Are the manuals referred to in an October thread, different than what I got? Steve Carver jumped in with an ordering directive, and there were a couple of mentions about getting manuals through 'Modern Equipment'. Aside from wanting to be able to identity any part that I might need to replace, I really want better information on how to change implements. This Kubota is far different from our old '52 Farmall where everything could be figured out if you stared at it long enough. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif
I'd appreciate any help here. My husband has figured out quite a bit of this without any help, but he is not always around to solve these problems for me, and I need to do some of this myself.
And what about manuals for Landpride and Leinbach? Any ideas out there?
