Complete Pats Easy Change Cat 1. Had it on my Kubota B7510 for approximately 50 hours then decided to go with power top-n-tilt and the top cylinder is not long enough to use with easy change. All parts including spreader bar, instructions, extra washers. All in good condition. $100 + shipping...

The thing that really irritates me about Microsoft is the way they take a perfectly good program and screw it up with bloatware. I have been a fan of MS Streets & Trips software for several years and have been happy with it. Other than having to reinstall it about every 6 months for no apparent...

Please pardon the impersonal nature of this message since I am posting it to numerous people and a couple of forums. Please do not reply to this message as my computer time is limited for a while due to lack of electricity and we are very busy trying to help with the clean up. Feel free to pass...

About the time I am ready to give up on the government some part of it does something that makes sense. From the New Orleans Times-Picayune "Treasury, IRS take steps to make additional diesel fuel available Friday, 11:55 a.m. WASHINGTON, DC - The Treasury Department and IRS today announced...

Russian spammer found murdered There may be some justice in the world after all. Bill Tolle

I continue to see a lot of posts from folks who have not filled out their profile. It is hard to help with some questions if we have no idea where your are and what size of place you are on. It is also hard to recommend dealers when the dealer might be 5 states away from you. Please take 2...

Just wanted to pass on the information for those who are not aware of it. There is a program called "Picasa2" that is available for free at Picasa2 It is really a very good program. You can use it to crop, straighten, and do other basic modifications to photos such as lightening or darkening...

I got the power beyond fitting from Mark at C & C this week. After much fumbling on my part (don't ask) I finally got everything installed. This was my first experience with hydraulics. 2 problems, 1 small, 1 may be large: The top cylinder makes a "chattering" noise as it extends when it has...

My old Epson Color 980 inkjet printer is on it's last leg and it is time for a replacement. The color output has never matched the screen colors very well anyway and I'm sure printers have improved in the 4 or 5 years I have had this one. Anybody have a color inkjet printer they are really...

When I try to go to http://www.tractorbynet.com/ I still get the error message about emergency downtime. Bill Tolle

I don't know if it has ever been mentioned here or not, but I have become aware of a potential problem that we all may want to watch out for. It seems that we have a few methamphetamine maufacturers setting up shop in the woods in East Texas. Charlotte and I enjoy riding the back roads in our...

I visit TractorByNet at least once a day, usually more than once a day. I like to see what has been posted since I have was there X hours ago but the forum is so busy that I have trouble sorting out the posts I might be interested in. Since I own a Kubota I have no interest in other brand...

I received my Top N Tilt kit from C & C Machinery today. Let me say up front that I have no idea what I am doing and have never worked on hydraulic systems before so I need all the help I can get. I "think" I have the hose connections figured out using the recently posted joystick valve...

I was really paying attention to my use of the hydro pedal yesterday while moving a lot dirt up a hill. I still have to overcome the tendency to push harder on the pedal when the RPM's start to drop going up the hill but it works better if I back off a little bit. The RPM's stay up and it easily...

Used 2 gallons of antifreeze (it doesn't get cold enough in East Texas to need more than that) and then topped off with an unknown number of gallons of water. Took me about an hour and the most time consuming part was figuring out the cheap plastic pump I bought that said "Self Priming" on the...

I have a B7510 with 50 hours on it. While doing the 50 hour service I pulled the air filter and it was covered with black "soot", the whole filter element had a coating of coal black, very fine, carbon dust looking stuff on it. Where I have used it is mostly brown dirt and with 77" of rain last...

We had a very sad event in our area a week or so ago. A man was burning some brush. He poured some of what he thught was diesel on it to light it. Unfortunately, his son-in-law had added gasoline to the diesel can. When he lit it he got burned over 40% of his lower body. He will survive but...

Am I the only one with this problem? I have a new B7510 and the only thing I found that I don't like about it is the seat. Seems that I catch myself almost "reclining" in the seat after a few minutes (yes, that is with the seatbelt on). Seems like the seat bottom is lower at the front and...

Think it is hard to get your CUT unstuck? John Deere combine and tractor stuck Case MX270 stuck Bill Tolle

Once again this evening I was reminded how lucky I am to have my wife Charlotte. She encouraged me to buy a new Kubota B7510HSD to replace the old Kubota B7100 because she knew how much I wanted a new tractor with power steering. This evening while I was at the computer she called me into the...

Ran across a good article on how to adjust the cutting height on a rotary cutter at LSU Ag Center website As a novice 'bush hog' user it had some good information for me. Bill Tolle

Last Saturday I had a gentleman looking at a tractor/FEL/bush hog I had for sale. Tractor was idling and he got down on his knee and reached up under the bush hog to check the blades. I immediately hit the fuel shutoff and killed the tractor. The man is in his 60's and has worked around...

I posted 4 pictures of the drink holder, brush guard, and hydraulic line protector that I built for my new B7510. Drink holder and brush guard The drink holder is made from 4" PVC pipe. It can hold a 32 oz Gatorade bottle. I drilled some holes near the bottom and used copper wire to lace...

I had originally posted this to another forum at Help! I need legal advice re: easements but at the suggestion of stephan am posting it here so it is more easily accessible. ----------------------------------------------------------- First, let me say that I am truly sorry to hear what has...

\"Armor\" for belly & pwr steering cyl of a BX2230? Before I posted this I searched on "armor", "protection", and some other terms in the forum but couldn't find anything. My new BX2230 is sitting in the dealers shop waiting for the bar tires to arrive (hopefully tomorrow). Bought the FEL with...

I just wanted to thank all of you who have posted so much useful information on this forum and the Owning/Operating forum about the BX. I have spent many hours reading the posts and have learned a lot. I probably saved several hundred dollars on it because of things I learned here, such as...

What is the minimum length and weight rating for a trailer big enough to carry a BX2230 with FEL and a 42" bushhog? Single or tandem axle? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or experiences.
