So I performed my 50 hours of service on my B2920. Drained HST fluid from three drain plugs, and removed and replaced two HST filters. I let them drain until there was hardly anything coming out of them. Prior to removing the drain plugs, I removed the HST filler cap so it would flow out at a...

I have not used my B2920 at night since I purchased it last year. Last night I went to use it, and noticed something odd that I can't really recall occurring on my previous tractor, a BX25. The instrument panel gauges light up as expected, but the needles on the gauges are not illuminated and...

Last week end I dropped about ten good sized pine trees (lob-lolly I think) that are about 10 - 16 inches wide. I delimbed them all, and now I have the "logs", some cut to about eight feet, but most still the length of the tree. I was going to push them into the far woods and let mother nature...

I thought about posting this in the buying section, but I thought it may be more beneficial here. This is probably old news to most, but it was new to me. I am close to purchasing a tiller for my B2920. I did not realize it but Kubota offers 0% financing on LandPride equipment (matched to the...

Hi All. I recently cleared a wooded area for a garden, and took out a lot of brush and several trees. I used by backhoe to dig out the stumps and larger brush clusters. Next i took my box blade and lowered the shanks all the way, and made repeated passes, "ripping" up the mess of undergrowth...

I am not sure what happened to my B2920 today, but good grief it was like it was on steroids or something! I was digging up stumps most of the day and it was just doing it with ease. Maybe it was because they were different types than I had been working on before, I don't know. Maybe it had...

Can anyone recommend a good hydraulic pressure gauge tester? I want to check my pressure, and went to Northern tools, but it looks like you have to make your own there out of parts.

I have been clearing trees and stuff for a garden, it is going pretty well. However, after I get the stumps up, there are still plenty of roots all over the place:mad: I am not sure the best tool or method to get the job done. I am thinking just get a plow and maybe plowing will rip up some of...

So I was greasing my tractor the other day, along with the backhoe (BH65). All the locations made sense, except for the one if the photo. I can't understand why there is a pin there, since there does not appear to be any moving parts. I tried greasing it, but who knows where the grease actually...

Does anyone know or have used the bxpanded pressure tester on a B2920? I would think they are all the same, but perhaps not.

I was working on a seemingly normal stump yesterday with the bh65 on my b2920. It turns out that the roots for this stump were massive and hard to get in and dig. Well I finally got it out, it was big! However I looked at my watch and realized I had been working on it for two hours. It was about...

Hi All. I hope this is not a dumb question, but probably is :) So I was removing stumps today and getting the hang of the BH65. Something felt odd and I was not really sure why. At first I thought it was just me, since I was used to my previous tractor BX25. Seemed jerky under some...

I have a new b2920 only about six hours on it. I tend to keep it in medium range. Yesterday I went to go down the driveway for the first time and wow was it slow going up hills. It seemed to be under a load. I pushed the rpm lever up to the orange mark on the gauge and that helped some at least...

I had to use the B2920 I purchased late last fall for the first real task yesterday. We had to put down an aging and sick pet, so I had to dig it's final resting place. I could tell a really big difference from my BX25. While using the backhoe on the B2920, it seems to have much more power (I am...

Ordered a WSM Manual from Messick's today for my 2920. :thumbsup: They had two in stock, real nice lady on the phone (sorry, can't recall her name). That should give me plenty of reading material! I ask a lot of basic questions on this site, so hopefully this will help educate me more, and...

In my BH65 manual, it states "when backhoe is attached make sure to properly secure the hydraulic control lever in the DOWN locked position. Accidental operation of the hydraulic control lever will result in valve damage". Then they show the "lever stopper" in place (mine is just a bare piece...

I recently upgraded to a new tractor, b2920 with backhoe (BH65). I have not used it as of yet, still in the garage. I was going over this am, and shoot, there is a cracked tooth on the backhoe (or so it seems, pic attached). Then I started to look at the bh in general, and it seems to lean to...

So I have been reading over my B2920 manuals, and checking things over before I actually start to use it. This is going to sound outright crazy, but it has me stumped. Standing in front of the tractor, and looking into the engine bay, I see the oil filler cap on top of the valve cover as usual...

My BX does not have a split brake. My "on the way" 2920 appears to have it, but from what I have read on here, it is too awkward to use. If anyone has used it on this series, I would like to hear how, and why people use a split brake to begin with. I have never used one, so I am curious why it...

I pulled the trigger on a new B2920, with FEL and BH. I will miss the BX25 but Barlows helped me with good prices. I will post pics once it arrives, in about two weeks.

I have searched the forums, and have found where many opt for an upgraded alternator on the B2920. Does anyone have an idea on the part number, or how much it costs to have it installed?

This is probably a silly question, but how can a dealer really give you a trade-in value over the internet if you just send a few pictures? I mean, don't they need to start it and drive it etc? I guess I am too used to the car tradein process, ha.

My in-laws made me this so I can still be connected to my 'bota when I fall asleep watching tv. Little over six feet in length.:):):) I have to admit, I have not seen one before ha!

OK, I am a real noob at this (rotary cutter and tractors in general). When I hook up my LandPride 4 ft rotary cutter, I have it all attached like the manual states, at least so I think. It does fine on FLAT areas, but unfortunately a lot of what I am trying to clean up is hilly/bumpy. So, when I...

Hi guys. I bought a land pride box scraper (the 54 inch wide one). Where the clevis pin goes through the lower arms of the tractor, there appears to be two places you can mount it. On the outside it is a narrow opening, and on the inside it is twice as wide. The manual states to use the bushing...

Hi Everyone. I ordered a toothbar for my BX25 from the dealer I bought the tractor from. It is a w r long model. Looking forward to using it. I picked it up today, and it seems too short to me. The inside width of my bucket is 46.5 inches, but the width of the mounting brackets on the toothbar...

I am thinking of getting a good toothbar for my BX25. I have read about all the different ones, and don't mind buying one. The only really nagging question that I did not see an answer for was the weight. It seems that adding the toothbar means you will decrease the amount you can put in the...

I kept thinking to myself, "Better get that bro-tek armor so I don't have a stray stick shear off the fan blades". Well, I was bush hogging today, taking my time real slow and careful backing into the brush. Took a break and was admiring my handiwork. Then something caught my eye, a white bit...

This is probably the dumbest question ever asked on here, but here goes anyway. On the BX25 top link 3pt hitch, what is the little square shaped loop on the outside of the cylinder used for? Is that where you can put a prybar or something to turn it after it is connected to an implement? I turn...

So thanks to all the help I received over the weekend, I went with phase I and picked up a LandPride 48 rotary cutter from the dealer this am, $1245. Ouch. A dealer further (50 minutes) away was 50 bucks cheaper, but did not have any in stock. The dealer I bought it from is the same dealer I...

Hi There. I am dizzy after looking at so many choices of rotary cutters for my BX25. From what I gather, I want to get a 48 inch rather than the 42 inch. KB or LandPride, or even kodiak or kk or woods. My main question with all these, is exactly what can I cut with my tractor and the bush hog...

This is just for a laugh. I normally pull my tractor into the garage when I am done working with it. This past weekend I did it again, forgot to push the ROPS down before entering! haha! Well, luckily I was able to bang out most of the dent to the entrance overhang with a rubber hammer. I was...

I installed my Kubota three point hitch this past weekend. It came new when I bought the tractor, a bx25. While putting it together, all seemed well. but after putting a rear blade on it I when to tighten up the check chains. I noticed that the threads on one of them was all mangled, like it had...

First, let me apologize for not being able to articulate this very well. I have a BX-25, and it has been great the past year. The backhoe has really come in handy. Last weekend I purchased a 5ft rear scraper blade for the driveway. I installed the three point hitch after taking the backhoe off...

Hi there. I purchased my first tractor a few weeks back after reading as much as I can on these boards. I picked up a new BX25 from the dealer for a good price. Anyway, I have about nine hours on it now. I live in VA, and the weather has been getting a little cooler now with fall on is. What I...
