I have a couple Honda's and am surprised to learn they "may" have been made in China. I also thought Geneac used to advertise they were made in the USA. I have no experience with Winco.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I didn't think of a Plumbing supply house to get the tube brush, but will absolutely give it a try. The PTO Shafts don't join with the typical Grooved spline, but rather, a simple rectangular male/female style. I think I can get the male shaft cleaned up...

I actually used some chain attached to my FEL Bucket and then thru the universal joint of the male shaft and literally lifted the PTO shaft up, thereby lifting the entire snowblower up off the ground a few inches. The snowblower weighs nearly 500 Lbs so that entire weight was working to pull...

***Update*** I managed to get the two halves separated and cleaned them up a little so they finally went together as they should. I plan to grease them up liberally before I replace the shield on the Male half.

The PTO Shaft (Female) I am talking about is, more or less, permanently attached to the Snowblower. ) (Model B2782B) It can only be removed by removing a bolt and a set screw. The other part of the shaft gets attached to the "Sled" mount of the snowblower and does use the splined collar yoke...

I used Liquid Wrench, but have several cans of PB Blaster too. When I suspended the blower i the air with the bucket, I was whacking the shafts with a board hoping to loosen it up. Maybe that helped in the long run. I read of someone who applied a Hand Nailer to the shaft. The vibrations...

I still don't know exactly how to remove the PTO Shaft safety cover, but it looks like its a plastic bearing held in place with a metal "C" clip. Don't know how to remove the "C" clip. Going to try some google searches.

leonz, Thanks a bunch for the Owners/parts manual. It helps a lot.

From what I see on the website, they want you to measure your connectors to see what size you need to order. I wonder if they sell some sort of "Kit" that includes 3 different sizes?

Hi All. Once again, THANK YOU ALL for the help, support & Guidance in my quest to separate the two PT shafts. It's been cold and rainy here the last week, so I didn't really have a chance to work on this problem. I did move the snow blower to a different loaction, then dismounted the "Sled"...

I have a kubota B3000 w the LA403 FEL. Anyone know what size I need? 1/2"???

That's a good article. Thanks for the link. !

It's 400 Lbs so not easy to flip it. I will have to wait for some help. In the meantime, someone told me that there is a bolt that secures the shaft using a compression collar and a keyway pin held in place with an allen screw. If I can figure out how to remove that metal shaft guard, it...

I gave them a good dose of spray but couldn't get the spray into them since they are stuck together. I did spray coat them with some grease prior to putting them together. I did try tapping them together at first and was able to pull them apart. That's when I gave them a good dose of spray...

The two PTO shafts are connected to each other (jammed) and attached to the snowblower, but not to the subframe. I tried pulling them apart, tapping them apart, and spraying them with a penetrating oil. Nothing seems to be able to get them apart. I still need to see how to remove the PTO...

This coupling isn't the usual splined type with a "keyway". It's a rectangular opening (male/female). Only one way to go together. But perhaps they were a little too rusty to go together. But I wire brushed them, greased them, and used some liquid wrench on them. They will not move. If I...

They are already tapped together. The problem is that they are frozen/wedged together and won't slide in and out of each other to allow connecting to both PTO ends. It's a odd rectangular male/female coupling and now I can't get them apart. I attached a picture of the female end.

Yes, that's my problem. Both ends are connected.... and stuck. They won't move so I can't couple the splines of the shaft to the mount/sled. The pictures don't help a whole lot as the shield are in the wa yof showing the ends of the couplers. But both ends that mesh together are a...

I'll try to get a few pictures to help show my problem. But yes, BOTH of the "Short" drive shaft part are joined together.... and Stuck/frozen together. They are joined with a rectangular style end(s). Female rectangle and Male rectangle. They are Stuck-Stuck-Stuck ! The female end is the...

HI. All. I attempted to mount my Front Snowblower today (Kubota B2782B) on my B3000. This particular model uses, what is called, a "Sled" undercarriage mount. It uses a long drive shaft connected to the Mid-PTO and a much shorter one from the sled to the Blower itself. It has a rectangular...

Thanks bigtiller! I appreciate the info.

HI All. I haven't had to use my Front Mounted Snowblower (B2782B on a B3000) for a couple of years. But they are calling for 4-11" of snow tonight/tomorrow and plan to mount the snowthrower to use. I can't find my manual right now and wanted to know what the working RPM should be when using...

Thanks for the help everybody.

Yes, this looks so odd. Like one side of the hole has a traditional roll pin pushed into it, but the OTHER side of the hole has a larger type pin shoved into it. Two different pins. It seems they used the roll pins in a weird way to keep a latch open. It's very difficult to explain. If I...

Removing/Reinstalling a Roll Pin. I have a B3000 with a RCK60-30B(A) belly mower. The lift linkage portion that hooks to the deck to raise and lower it, has a Roll Pin that looks to be broken in 1/2. Items in Parts Diagram for the CK60-30BA are Part #290 (Pin Spring) #75599-52532, AND Part...

I am not sure, I would guess 8-12". Maybe someone else knows for sure.

I'm sure there are cheaper options. You have to find something that bolts on in a similar fashion. And have the same range/length of motion the original has. Maybe some here has the answer, or suggestion for a similar unit.

I sent mine to Radwell and they either wouldn't or couldn't repair it. My local kubota dealer said they would try to repair it, but the cost to "try" was as much as buying a new one. I finally gave up and bought a new one.

I ended up "biting the bullet" and ordered a brand new actuator from Kubota. It was Not cheap. I think it was around $700. Pretty easy to replace. The wire seemed a little short, so I added a little wire and put on new quick connectors. Haven't had any snow here around Baltimore to test it...

I bought some lifting hooks from Ken's Bolt On's. He is very helpful and responsive about questions. If you can operate a drill, you can mount his hooks. Here is a link to his site: Home - BoltOnHooks LLC

Cool Pic. Which body of water is that ?

Mine is a Kubota a B3030 with a Kubota 6 ft. Front Mount SnowBlower and a 6 ft. rear Blade. If I get really desperate, I also have a 6 Ft. REAR mount Kubota SnowBlower. And just for kicks, I have a Front Mount Kubota 6 Ft blade. I L-O-V-E the heated Cab in the Winter. I mounted some really...

I don't know one off hand. But if I have the correct tape, I'm more than willing to give it a go. I think it may be easier i the tape is translucent and not opaque.

Thanks. I like the Vinyl tape idea the best. I'll go on the hunt for some... unless it's on Amazon! :.)

Hi All. I have a B3000HSDCC (Cold Weather Model) that has a factory rear window defroster. I noticed that a couple of the lines on it do not defrost. This is usually due to some sort of damage to the Defroster grid line. After close inspection, I saw two small areas where the grid line...

I bought two of the top linked cup holders. The magnet is STRONG and I have not had them come off on their own or slip around. They are large enough to fit my insulated cups and Yeti. I recommend it.

I had a 60" Allied 3 pt blower before, and it worked Great ! Could move a lot of snow in a hurry and I never had a lick of problem with it. Never even broke any pins !

It takes me about 5 hours to do 5.5 Acres with the 60" Belly mower.. I could prolly cut maybe an hour off of that if I had the 72".

I've currently got a 60" belly mower. I would have like to get the 72", but room in the garage would be a problem. I agree... bigger is better, but only if you have the storage room.

Thanks for all the replies. I appreciate the input. I am currently trying "LESTOIL" grease remover. Supposedly safe for asphalt and I know from experience, it's good at dissolving/removing grease stains.

Hi All. What do you all suggest that I can spray from a can Hydraulic Oil Dissolver? I have a cylinder that was leaking hydraulic oil and it got around in many spots on my asphalt. Looking for something in a spray can to make it easier to "Spot Clean". Thanks !

Hi All. The cylinder on my front mount snow blower sled/sub-frame is leaking. I ordered the seal kit and talked to my local dealer about them doing the repair (install the seal kit). They said to just bring the cylinder in to them and they will do the repair. Should I remove it and leave the...

If money were no object, which 3pt snow blower would you purchase? I have heard a lot of good things about the Pronovost blowers, but know they are top dollar. I have had an Allied/Farm King/Buhler in the past and was impressed with it. Many seem to like the Woodmaxx and PUMA, Lucknow, Meteor...

Hi All. Does anyone know who actually manufactures the Kubota BL2664 3PT snowblower? Landpride? RAD ? I see one for sale and it is pretty new, hardly used. Asking $2400, but have no idea if that's a decent price. Thanks.

Hi All. I have a B3000HSDCC. I went to try out my snowblower this morning, and I noticed that my Tachometer was not working. Not moving at all. It was working a few days ago. Is the Tach on this tractor a mechanical Tach or electrical? Any suggestion on what and where to look/check to...

Hi All. I have a Kubota Front mount Snowblower model B2782B which has an Electric Chute Actuator on it. It is a LINAK Actuator Type 123000-1130122X, Item 120210-01 I think it is a Model LA12, but not sure. ( I have attached a pic of the sticker on the actuator). It's getting power, and I...

I sent my B3000 to the dealer I have been using for 20 years for a "Pre-Season" tune-up. I also asked them to check the PTO safety switch as it has been erratic. They checked it said it did need to be replaced. (No Surprise). But when they delivered my tractor back to me today, I immediately...

Hi All. I have a B3000 and when I pulled it out of the garage, I noticed a small pool of oil on the garage floor which was right where my front left wheel was located. I looked a little closer to the wheel and saw that on the inside of the front left wheel was a bunch of oily dirt on the rim...

Hi All. I want to get at the HVAC mechanicals on my B3000 that are located in the roof area. Has anyone removed their roof of a B3000 or B3030? Can I unbolt it without completely removing the "Inner" roof/headliner? I think there are only 4 bolts that need to be removed from the inside to...

Posted in wrong section.

Hi All. Back in 2009, WaxMan posted that he had cleaned is A/C unti in the roof and "Deodorized" the evaporator and heater core it and it cured his diesel fume odor problem. Unfortunately WaxMan isn't around any longer so I can't ask him.... how does one "deodorize" the A/C unit in the roof...

The B3030 and B3000 are nearly identical tractors. The B3030 had side glass windows that opened (although not a lot), but the B3000 has stationary side glass. Has anyone with a B3000 ever tried changing out the windows on the B3000 to allow them to open like the 3030? Pricing out the side...

Hi All. MY A/C isn't getting as cold as it used to and I took a look at the sight glass and saw it started out with a very bubbly stream and then went to clear, as in no fluid as far as I can see. I have ordered some cans of 134A Freon and a decent set of manifold gauges. But, once I get it...

Hi all. I have a Kubota RCK60-BA 60" belly mower. I have bee in a search for the owners manual, but according to my local dealer, they have bene discontinued. (Odd, since this mower is still being sold.) BUT.. I have seen a manual for a RC60-30BR mower. Does anyone know if that manual...

Hi All. I have B3000 with an LA403 FEL. It's a pin on bucket. It seems to me that the bucket is "Floppy" or sloppy. There is a lot of play in the bucket movement on the pins. Wen I rock/shake the Bucket to empty it, the bucket seems almost loose. Is this normal for the LA403? I had a...

Hi All. I bought a tractor with a front mounted snow blower and I noticed that the connectors did not have their little rubber safety plugs/protectors in the ends of the hydraulic connectors. I am more concerned about the female connectors, but both the male and female connectors have...

Hi Al. I have a front mounted blade with a rubber cutting edge on my B3000. I had placed it on top of a wooden pallet to store it, but I have noticed that due to the overall weight of the blade pushing down on the rubber edge, that is starting to develop some cracking on the rubber edge...

Does anyone know if there are more than 2 different shear pins for my B2782B snow blower? I only see two.... part #70060-01337 and 70060-01074. Thanks !

HI All. I have a B3000 and am in the process of installing some LD worklights. The OEM Halogen lights were 55 watts each, which should be about 4.5 amps x2 = 9 AMPS The new lights I am replacing them with draw 6.3 Amps each x2 = 12.6 AMPS. My question is: What is the wire gauge running to...

Hi All. I have a B3000HSDCC. (Cab) I have never had a diesel tractor with a cab. My previous tractor was a B2150. I would like to know if it's "normal" to smell of diesel fumes after running the tractor for a couple of hours? I mean the diesel (fume) odor is pervasive enough that I have to...

Hi All. I have a B3000 and noticed in my owners manual that it instructs me to Open the "Evacuator Valve" at the engine air filter once a week or more if in dusty conditions. Anyone do this? And is it to be done with the engine running, or off? The manual is not clear about the procedure...

Hi All. I have a B3000 with a front mount B2782B snowblower. It is currently dismounted but I want yto pick it up to place it on a pallet rather than direct ground placement for the Summer. Of course, the mounting "sled" is also removed, otherwise I could just place the tongue into the blower...

Hi All. I have a B3000 HSDCC and I went to use the Rear "Washer" yesterday, and no juice came out. The Washer Fluid reservoir is full, and the front washer works fine. I tried holding the switch down a good long while to see if it had to "prime", but no luck. Any suggestions on what to look...

Hi All ! Has anyone with a B3000 or B3030 replaced the OEM Headlight bulb with a LED bulb? I don't know the exact bulb number of the OEM Bulb, but hope someone has replaced theirs already. THANKS !

Hi. All. Anyone out there who converted to LED work lights and removed their old Kubota Halogen work lights, and still have the old ones laying around the garage? Wanna get rid of them ? Thanks.

Hi All. I have a B3000HSDCC with a set of OEM work lights on the front and the back. I want to swap them out with LED work lights but want to know if the light switch circuits have a "Relay" already or not. I suspect they may, but don't know. Each set of work lights is (I'm Just guessing)...

Hi All. I have a B3000 with front and rear OEM work light kits. (Not the Headlights, but the extra "Work Lights") Does anyone know what the Halogen Bulb "Wattage" is that is in those lights? 35Watt, 55Watt ? Thanks !

Hi All. I have a Land Pride RB1572 blade and wanted to install a rubber cutting bade so it's easier on my asphalt driveway for pushing snow. I can't find anything on the web as far as a rubber cutting edge from Land Pride. Has anyone seen an OEM Rubber edge from Land Pride? If they don't...

I understand flail mowers and 3 Pt Bush Hog mowers being "Rough Cut" mowers, but I always thought that a Kubota Mid-Mount Mower was considered a "Finish Cut" mower. Isn't it ???? Thanks......

Hi All. I just bought a B3000 with a front mount snow blower B2782B. I went out to grease things up and noticed that it is missing several of the Hydraulic plugs and caps for the Hydraulic connections/couplers. The inside diameter of one of the female fitting appears to be 5/8" plus/minus...

Hi All. I renetly got a B3000HSDCC with a B2782B front mount snow blower. On a YouTube video, I saw a Kubota owner who had a new front mounted Blade. His was a Kubota brand model B2763 that mounted to the front use the same "tongue" type quick attach sled and had hydraulic side to side...

Hi All. I have a B3000 and when I look at the Dimension specs on "TractorData" it shows a "Width" of 53.7". But yet, shows a "Wheelbase" of 65.6". I would have thought the wheelbase measurement would also be the width? Is the Width measurement just for the physical portion of the tractor...

Does anyone know if the PTO shaft diameter is the same size for the Rear & Mid PTO shafts on a B3000? I wanted to buy a Shaft "Cap" to go onto the Mid PTO Shaft to protect it like the cover on the Rear PTO Shaft. The Kubota Part number is 31220-25820. I read somewhere that they are not the...

DANG ! I sure picked the wrong time to have my new (to me) B3000 picked up for service. The guy I bought it from had not had it serviced for a year, so I figured I should have it serviced. The local dealer picked it up last Tuesday and will have it for at least a couple of weeks. I was...

Hi All. I ordered a new grease gun to lube up all the zerks on my B3000 and snowblower. Is there any particular kind of grease cartridge I should buy? I know that there are s few different kind of greases for the Marine environment, but what about in the agricultural world? Thanks for the input.

Hi All. I just got my used B3000 HSDCC delivered this week and was playing around with the heat controls. I noticed that the air stream is pretty strong and its nice and warm... EXCEPT... for the right side vent. It seems to be blowing cold air instead of warm air like the rest of the vents...

Hi All. Do the B3030 & B3000 "Cab" models have a lock on the Cab door, or no sort of lock? Thanks !

I am close to buying a new tractor and need to sell my B2150 to help fund the new purchase. I am hoping you all can give me some feedback on how to price it. It is a B2150HSD/HST with Bi-Speed Turn. LA350A FEL, RC60-21B (60") Mid-Mount Mower, Drawbar, Upgraded Dynamo (40 Amp), Turf tires in...

Hi All. I am close to buying either a used B300, or a brand new B2650. Can anyone tell me the Radios they install in the Cab version has a "USB" input to allow you to hook up an ipod or other auxiliary device? If not, are you all installing another type/brand radio yourself? BTW.. what...

Hi All. I am considering the purchase of a B2650 with a FEL. My Bucket options are a 54" "Standard" bucket of a 60" "Light Duty" bucket. Does anyone know what the real difference is between the two of them? (Other than 6"?) Which do I get? And on the 2650 HSDC "CAB" model, does the rear...

Hi All. I have a B2150HST and it creeps forward all by itself. It's bad enough that I believe it's dangerous. I had my local dealer pick it up to repair it, but they said it needed a part, that is apparently discontinued. The part is #66301-43420 "Plate, S-Change". It must be rounded out...

Hi All. I have a B2150 and was going to change/clean my air filter. I have read that some Kubota models have TWO air filters. A primary(outer) and a secondary/safety (inner) air filter. Does anyone know if my B2150 has one, or two, air filters? Thanks !

Hi All. I have a B2150 with a LA350A FEL. I want to get some of those Titan clamp on forks, but am unsure of my loader capacity. I planned to get either the 1,500lb or the 4,000lb capacity forks. But no sense paying for 4,000 forks if my FEL will only lift 1,000lb. Any comments on the chain...

I just found some LED headlight bulbs in a "T19" size, which is the size/type my B2150 uses for the headlight bulbs. They aren't cheap, but boast 80 watts. Sure seems like it should be much brighter than the oem 15/15 bulbs in it now. I had tried upping the bulbs to 25/25 watts but they...

Hi All. I have read a few threads about this but am still looking for more info. I have a B2150 and a rear 3PH snowblower which runs at 540 PTO RPMs. I have two PTO speed settings on the B2150... 540 and 780. The engine speed setting for the 540 PTO RPMs is 2500. Exactly why can't I put my...

I had a local Kubota dealer pick up by B2150 to have the tires changed. Since I was already paying for the p/u & delivery, I figured I'd let them change the oil and oil filter, fuel filter and air cleaner to save me some time. But when I got the quote for that service I about swallowed my...

Hi. I've got a B2150 and the bulbs in the headlights are very strange. I don't know the Bulb "number" but it's known as a "15/15" bulb. Does the 15/15 mean it's a TOTAL of 15 watts, or a total of 30 watts ? My headlight switch has two on positions, a Low and a High. When I turn on the...

Hi. I have a B2150 and wanted to add some LED work lights. Since I will be using LED lamps, the Wattage draw will be less than a standard type bulb. But does anyone know how much wattage draw I can add to the B2150 with the standard alternator ? I have seen LED lights which draw anywhere...

I had my local dealer pick up my B2150 for the "Spring Service" and to check into a slight "hesitation" when I am traveling and then turn. He has had it for nearly 3 weeks now, and today he called me and said he had completed the regualy maintenance but the mechanic said that the "Throw-Out...

For the lobgest time, on this site, I used to see an advertisement for someone selling some sort of storage rack for belly mowers. It sort of held them upright to take up a lot less room for storage. That's all I can remember right now. But I am buying a new Kubota belly mower to replace my...

How to Determine PTO RPM\'s ? Hello All ! I have a B2150 and an Allied/Buhler snowthrower. It's designed to run at 540 RPM's. But How do I know when I hit that RPM speed on the rear PTO ? What RPM's should the tractor engine be turning to hit this PTO speed ? Thanks. Tim

I just picked up an old snowblower from Pennsylvania. It is a 1997 60" Allied. In really good shape. But it does not have adjustable skid shoes like the newer Allied snowblowers. Other than ordering the parts from Allied, what other options for adjustable skid shoes are out there. I hear...

I have a B2150 and am looking at a Ford New Holland Snowblower model 715A. It is supposed to be a Cat.1 3PH type blower. Does anyone think I would have a problem using this since it is a Cat 1. type? Or is it possible there could be a problem with the shaft length? Thanks, TimP
