Good evening all. Just a quick question on the B-2620 60" MMM. I am aware of the adjustment valve for the drop rate on the hydraulics. Since new I have always thought the "up" on my deck was way too fast. I can adjust the drop rate just perfect. My question is can the "up" rate be adjusted also...

Good evening all. I recently did the 50 service on my B2620. Although the manual does not call for a total change of the hydro oil until 400 hours I was not going to just change the HST filter w/o changing the hydraulic filter and oil since I was already under it and did not like the thought of...

Good evening all, recently I needed to hook up my loader (on a B2620) after taking it off for the mowing tasks this year. I was in a tight time frame to get a standby generator set and what should have been a fast simple job turned into an hour job. I could not get the hydraulic hoses to "snap"...

New owner of a Kubota B2620 and need to know if there is a way to position control a rear blade as far as smoothing out stone, dirt, etc.. My rear blade is either all the way up or all the way down, is there a way to control how far down this blade or any rear implement will travel other than...

Good morning all... recently I purchased a new B2620 with the Terra Trac aggressive bar tires to make it lower and wider as most of my time will be spent mowing grass with the 60" deck. I did pick up the loader, box blade, rear blade, and a brush hog with it though. So far I am pleased with my...

Looking to purchase a Max 28 next month. I would like advice and input on shuttle shift vs hydrostatic drive on the max 28. I have never owned a hydrostat drive tractor. 90% of my time is spent mowing which I think hydrostat would be great for. Maybe 5% brush-hogging with a four foot deck and...

More pics from the winter project, much more stable on the WV hillsides!

A few pics of the 1610 after a winter tire and rim upgrade. Fronts are 7X12 rims with 23X8.50X12 6 ply Tru-power tires and the rear rims are 16X10 with 12.4X16 6 ply Tru-power tires, each filled with twenty-two gallons of -32* washer fluid. Total width at the rear is now 60" instead of 44".

I have a set of like new front 5x14 and rear 9.5x22 Bridgestone Ag tires on almost new rims for several model Yanmars but they came off my 1610D when I did an upgrade to wider tires front and rear. Tires still have the small dimples on them. Private message me further details.

Has anyone put dual rear tire/wheel set-ups on their Yanmars? If so did you use a spacer with bolts and holes mating with the original hub/rim pattern or did you use a j-bolt type setup and pull the tire/rim combo tight against one another? Any pro or con thoughts on this? Thought this might be...

I think we all need to thank our dealers for the service and parts they stock for our Yanmars. UTDA additions to my Yanmar from LMTC just might have saved me from a serious injury recently. I had never given a thought about an overrun clutch flying apart as it did. Our old Ford 8N had an overrun...

Just thought I would relate a close call to members here. By all means if your budget allows, get a PTO shield and install it. Some I have seen for as little as $30.00 and it sure could save an injury. While brush-hogging my quick release over-run clutch decided to fly apart at 2200 rpm engine...

Just did 50 hour service on my 1610D from LMTC which was delivered back in March. A few days ago I found a stub axle seal leaking which required a new seal. Wayne shipped the new seal, new collar, and fan belt all at no charge to me. I did the labor and he even offered phone support which I took...

Thought I might drop a line regarding my recent purchase of a Yanmar 1610D and brush-hog. After reading posts here, internet research, visit to a dealer in Nelsonville, OH, who sold tractors on consignment from LMTC I finally contacted Wayne Foreman to get a tractor ready for me. After a few...
