I have owned two Kubotas. The first was a 2001 B7500 and the second is a 2005 B7510 (The reason for two of the same tractor is a long story). Anyway, on my B7500 when I would park it in the garage on the pavement, I would put the bucket down with the front of the bucket resting on the...

I am going to fill my B7510 tires with water since I am in Arizona and don't worry about freezing. However, I am worried about breaking the tire bead after I jack the rear wheels up and take out the valves. Has anyone had this problem when filling tires? I understand that once you break the...

I have never seen what the difference between the two are. I am looking for a 5' landscape rake and have seen a 1 pt and a 3 pt from AgriSupply. There is a $5 difference between the two but the 3 pt is not in stock. What is the definition/differences of the two? Also has anyone purchased...

I am going to purchase a rake for my B7510 and am going back and forth between a 5' rake and a 6' rake. The 5' rake would cover my tread even if I angle it. Weight isn't an issue. I am considering either a Leinbach or a Land Pride. The Leinbach looks like it is very well made. I would...

I got a B7510 with a folding ROPS and decided that I didn't like it (problems with alignment and hassle of folding each time to put the tractor in the garage) and I do not intend on ever getting a BH. Called the dealer and he came out with a fixed ROPS and had it changed in 15 minutes. Only...

Are the foldable ROPS and the fixed ROPs interchangeable? It looks like the ROPS subframe is welded to the tractor and the top portion is held on by four bolts. I would think that it would be a matter of taking out the four bolts and switching. Has anyone done this? I am looking at switching...

Just got my 7510HSD today and I have a ROPS problem. I had a hard time getting the bolts out to fold it down. The left one goes back in easy but the right one appears to be stripped and I can only get it in about 3/4 of the way. I can't tell what condition the nut is in. Has anyone had this...

Got my 7510HSD delivered today. I had a 7500HSD for 3 years so I feel right at home. The only difference is the foldable ROPS. Not sure I like it and I could get a fixed ROPS in the garage. The foldable ROPS is about 2 inches too tall. I have a problem with the bolts that are used to hold...

54\"\" BB Too Big for B7510? I had a B7500 that I had to sell when I left Michigan . I had a 48" First Choice BB on it and had no problems. Now that I am in Arizona on a little over 1 acre, I just got quoted and accepted a quote on a B7510HSD with an LA302 FEL and a Land Pride 54" BB. The...

Just bought the dealer's last 4010 here in Tucson. As I mentioned I was looking at the 2210 but as it turns out he gave me the 4010 with the 410 loader and 4' box scraper for $1100 less than the 2210. The total cost (out the door with tax and delivery) was $12,800 with the 410 loader and 4'...

Sold my Kubota B7500 and am looking for something to work some dirt, etc. on my 1.5 acres here in Tucson. After looking at a few of the price checks for a 2210 on this forum, I was shocked to find that what I am getting quoted here in Tucson looks very high. The quote for a 2210 with a 210...

I am planning on shipping my B7500HSD from Michigan to Arizona in the next few weeks. However, for the car hauler to transport it, the shipper needs some dimensions. I do not have access to the tractor, it is in Michigan and I am now in Arizona. I was hoping that someone with a B7500HSD may...

I just did my 50 hour service and I was worried about how much fluid I would get on the tractor, the garage floor and me. I was worried after reading a number of horror stories about the amount of hydraulic fluid some owners had gotten all over everything. I hardly got any on any one of the...

Just did my 50 hour service and I found it to be a lot easier than I thought. I was surprised to only get 2.5 gallons out of 3.3 gallons (75%) out of the three plugs plus the filters. The dealer thought I would get about 3 gallons out. Has this been about what everyone else has gotten out...

After putting the 60" MMM on my B7500 today (it was easier than I thought it would be for the first time thanks to all of your threads) I can't remember what tractor RPM I should be mowing at. I can't find anything in the manual. I started at 2000 rpm but that seemed slow. I then remebered...
