    B2710 - B2910 & BL4690B ?

    This might be little convoluted, so please bear with me. I was under the impression that aside from the engine and a few other things like cruise control, the B2710 and B2910 were pretty much the same tractor. Why then, do they call for a different mounting configuration when putting a BL4690B...

    Super UDT vs. Premium UDT?

    As noted by Slowzuki in another post, here in Canada there is no such thing as regular UDT and Super UDT. We have "Premium" UDT. Period. It sells here for about $65.00 CDN for 20 liters (5 gallons). A couple of posts from Kubota owners who've gone from UDT to Super UDT (or gone the other...

    Clutch Won't Disengage PTO

    Clutch Won\'t Disengage PTO I've noticed a "knocking" somewhere in my B2710 HST driveline for a while now. I becomes more predominant when the machine has been working under load (ie. pulling the box scraper/landscape rake. etc.) Mechanics at the dealership can't identify what the problem...

    Tiller Leaking On Top End?

    Just got a Maschio W125 tiller. (Chain drive.) Noticed a bit of oil seep on the top end. This is coming from somehwhere around the area where the drive shaft goes through the side of the tiller to meet the top sprocket of the chain drive. I'm thinking a bearing for the drive shaft is seated...

    Benzi & Diterlizza Slip Clutch?

    Anyone ever heard of this one, please? I'm wondering about setting it and can't find a thing anywhere. Thanks, Slim

    Tiller  48 Inch Tiller?

    I'm looking at a 48 inch tiller with offset to run on a Kubota B2710 (20 PTO hp). My rear tires are set to about 54 inches and while I'd really like to be able to cover myself in one pass, I'm a little confused by all the different PTO hp requirements different manufacturers list for their...

    Wobbling Up To 540 RPM?

    I have a 5 foot rotary cutter made by World International Machinery(?)... the outfit out of Bethel, Ohio. I drop my RPM's down to engage the PTO and as I'm powering up to the rated (2,600) engine RPM's I get a distinct wobble from the cutter. It stops at about 2,000 RPM. I've only used this...

    7 Foot Landscape Rake - B2710?

    Have a chance to pick up a 7 foot landscape rake with gauge wheels at a pretty good price. Am I going to be happy with this on a B2710? Thanks, Slim

    Ballast  B5320 Ballast Box?

    Picked up a brand new Kubota B5320 Ballast Box at auction yesterday for a real good price. Measures about 16X16 and 30 inches wide. I'm looking to use this on a B2710 instead of the box scraper when I'm doing loader work. It's not quite as robust as I'd hoped for, (quarter inch steel ears and...

    Nasty Knocking

    My year 2000 Kubota B2710 (Hydrostat - 325 hours) has developed a nasty knock somewhere in the rear end. The closest I can come to describing it is somewhat akin to a bottom end knock in an engine. It's there whether the PTO is engaged or not. Bought this tractor used with 210 hours on it and...

    Loader Problem

    When I dump the LA401 loader on my B2710 I get a "stop" when I'm moving the joystick to the right. I move the stick to the right to where it stops and it slowly curls the bucket down. I can "push past" this stop and get a much quicker dump, but it's taking away some of the fine control to do...

    Like This BL4690

    I've been cutting a trail through the bush at the back of my place to: a. get to the property line to fence and b. do some ditching to deal with a drainage problem. The annual monsoon abated three or four days ago, the temperature fell to just below freezing and we have about 3 inches of frost...

    Loader Problem

    I've noticed on my last couple of outings that the LA401 loader on my B2710 has been a little "slow" when dumping. Not as responsive as I'd like. This afternoon I noticed a slight catch as I moved the stick over. Nothing I couldn't move past with just a little more pressure, but a definite...

    B2710 Hydraulic Filter Part Number?

    I'm running one of the older B2710's (serial number before 15496). I only use one hydraulic filter and the hydraulic suction filter (strainer). I'm a little confused as to which hydraulic filter I want. The Kubota look-up page calls for 67955-37710. TractorSmart notes the same part number...

    A little education on e-bay, please?

    I'm going to admit that this whole computer/Internet/ecommerce thing is a little new to me. I'm also going to admit my ignorance of what's going on, but I'm seeing some tractors for sale on this e-bay for ridiculously low prices. I notice that you have to "pre-qualify" and these sellers...
