I'm new to this forum, so apologies in advance if this is a mis-post.
I purchased a new Kubota BX25D locally two months ago, and decided today to "simply" remove the backhoe, (so I could try out the post hole digger).
I followed the instructions to the letter, engaging the swing arm lock pin, positioning the bucket, part lowering the stabiliser arms, then lifting the rear wheels slightly by lowering the arm.
The next step in the instructions are then to remove the two pins. But while the one on the left side slides out like with ease, the right side is stuck.
I've tried different levels of arm raising, I've tried shifting the arm left or right (there's a little bit of play even with the swing pin inserted), but it won't budge.
The dealer (Kentan, NSW, Australia) has been no help (apparently it's not convenient for them to support a customer on a Saturday morning), so I was hoping someone out there might know a trick or two to getting the darn thing out!
I've attached a photo of the offending pin
Thanks in advance,
Mike Gilliland
