    Mowing  Thinking of trading/selling kubota mid mount mower for rear finish

    I bought my B3200 with MMM a little over 2 years ago and am thinking I want a RFM. I like the MMM, it's built well and has done well for me. What was once very neglected pasture around my place is slowly becoming tall grass as I've worked on it with the brush hog. I'd like to start mowing it...

    Old plow - new tractor. Never used a plow, can I make it work?

    Hey guys... and girls. We recently moved back out to the "country" and I have 12 acres. We've always had vegetable gardens and I've always wondered if a plow would be of use to me. I just bought a new Kubota B3200 and on our new property I found an old plow along with other things including a...

    Pulled the trigger on B3200HSD

    Thanks for all the help by TBN users in helping me decide how to spend my money. I dropped the check off today and checked in on the new tractor. They had it all dolled up inside the shop with the new factory 60inch MMM, rears loaded and rear remotes installed. I asked what they would charge for...

    Looking hard at a Max28XL - advice on attachment sizes

    I've been tractor shopping and I'm ready to pull the trigger. Been looking at a Kubota B2920 and B3200 and then found the Mahindra Max28XL. I can save about $4000 compared to the B3200 if I go with the Max. My concerns are reliability of the machine, parts availability, 54'' FEL bucket compared...

    Buying Advice  B2920 vs B3200HSD vs Max28XL - I'm stuck

    The good news - been tractor shopping and have the green light from the other half. The problem if you want to call it one - a big price difference. The Bota's are from a local dealer who has been around for years and known for their good customer support. The Max from a dealer about 35 minutes...

    Mower cleaning trick

    Something I learned from my grandfather. Buy a standard bulkhead female garden hose fitting from the local hardware store. Punch a hole in your mower deck with a knock-out set for the size of the bulkhead fitting. The placement of the fitting on the deck is VERY important. You don't want the...

    3PH wood splitter

    I am looking at 3ph splitters for my NH TC18. Do all these splitters come with the built in valve? My tractor has factory-set-up aux hydraulic ports in the rear with a valve. The ports have quick-connect fittings on them. Can't I just run the splitter from that valve? I think that's what the aux...
