    Loader  BX23 Control Valve part numbers

    I have a BX23 and had to order new kits for the control valve detents. Not sure if that's the right verbage or not. But it's the things that screw into the bottom of the control valve that has springs and things inside. The one that controls the loader arms fit and worked perfectly. The...

    3 pt. Disc harrow axle nut

    After discing for awhile today I noticed between two of the disc blades I was plugged up. After clearing the mess I noticed that the disc blades are now loose on the axle. There are two nuts on the ended of the axle. I loosened the lock nut and attempted to tighten the inner nut. It seems...

    Kerosene/#1,#2 Diesel Bullet Heater

    My owners manual for my bullet/torpedo/nipco heater says to burn kerosene or #2 diesel. I have always run #2 diesel fuel. The problem I have now is I need some fuel and this time of year in MN, due to the temperature, the only diesel fuel you can get is #1. I have 200 gallons of #1 it in the...

    Cat1 or Limited Cat1 - FACTS

    Because of all the different opinions on what constitutes a cat1 hitch or a limited cat1 hitch, I thought I would take some time this morning and try to squelch any more bantering. It also gave me a good excuse to take these measurement once and for all, since it is something I have been...

    Log splitter wedge

    This may have been discussed before, but I guess I wouldn't know what to search for. Not even sure if this is the correct category to post it in, but here goes. I have seen log splitters with the splitting wedge that was stationary and the ram pushes the wood through the wedge. Then others...

    Weight box wheels

    Theres been a lot of talk about weight boxes here lately so I though why not add to it. Has any one else added wheels to their weight box? A local fabricator makes these weight boxes. I asked him if he would make me one but add a piece of pipe on each corner and drill them so I could insert...

    Hydo Pole Saw

    Provideing the flow of the tractor is adequate, can you run a hydraulic pole saw off a full detent remote valve without any further valving? In other words, is all the necessary valving contained within the pole saw?

    So I don't weld

    But I am pretty handy with an air nailer and a saw. I know there has been other man lifts posted here, but them ones I remember were all fabricated with metal and a welder. Since I neither have a welder, or even know how to weld (wish I did), here is what I came up with a few years ago. Works...

    Powerhouse 3pt splitter

    I have followed a number of older threads discussing the Powerhouse 3pt splitter but most of them end with I have just got one...... For those of you who have now had one for a time and have used it, could you give us an update at to your likes or dislikes. I am in the market for a 3pt...

    Snowblower chute hyd. conversion

    Just finished up converting my snowblower chute from manual to hyd. A 4" stroke cyl. did not have enough movement, and a 6" stroke had to much. But I did not want to limit the movement so I decide on the 6". After some discussion on the Hydraulic section on how to either limit the stroke of a...

    Handy Item

    Here is one of the handiest things I almost threw away. Long story on how I ended up with it, so I'll skip that part. Anyway it is the 3pt hitch assembly off a rear blade. I used the blade to make a front mounted snow pusher and had thrown this in the iron pile to be hauled away. Not always...

    Nephew's First Deer

    My nephew Josh proudly displays his first deer ever. Ten pointer. Not bad for your first deer. A guy could hunt a long time before you get another 10.

    DIY - 3rd function joy stick - kind of

    After pricing a 3rd function joystick feature for my Kubota L4740, and after actually seeing it installed on one, I did not care for either the installation or the price. So I took a different path. This is not anything new here. I'm sure many of you have done a similar thing. I just thought...

    Let It Snow

    Here is something my nephew dubbed, "The Snow Destroyer". I've had many different combinations of snow moving equipment over the years. This combo I used for the first time last winter. Some how moving snow was a lot more enjoyable last year. :D

    Travel limiter for hyd. cyl.

    Is there such a device that would act as a travel limiter for a dual acting hydraulic cylinder to limit its extented length? The only thing I can come up with would be to put a loop of cable around both ends. Or maybe attach a length of chain some how to both ends? Any ideas?

    Another use for free weights

    I keep finding more and more uses for these barbell sets I've picked up on the used market. This year, I am switching from a front blade and rear blower, to a rear blade and front blower. I have used this box blade before for snow and it works great for pulling the snow away from in front of...

    BX23 Joystick

    For you BX23 owners out there, I have a question regarding the float position. I realize on most tractors that have the float position feature when you push the joy stick up into the float position, it "detents" and stays there until you physically pull it out of that position. On my BX23, it...

    A different take on counter weight

    I recently came across over 400 lbs. of old weights that I was able to get for $45. Here's 187lbs of them put to good use. I just needed to cut the bar down so it doesn't stick out wider than the rear wheels. They work suprising well.
