I am looking for experienced opinions on using a Wright Fence Mower LLC Model FM30 (www.fencemower.com) for trimming next to a horse wire mesh fence around a 5-acre horse pasture. The mesh goes all the way to the ground, so no mowing under it, and need to mow on both sides of fence. The fence...

My closest Kubota dealer is 12 miles away.

Maybe I am mis-understanding your question, but I always push the clutch in to engage, disengage or change RPM selection for PTO on my B7500. My manual says, "To avoid damage of transmission, before shifting the PTO gear shift lever, fully disengage the main clutch." Pg 36 of Operator's Manual

My experience exactly! So much heat makes no sense. When you eliminated the Belt stretcher did the outer cover still heat up? When you pulled apart the belt stretcher assembly did you notice if the internal bearing was good or bad? Hank - When the belts stopped smoking, I stopped checking the...

I don't recall ever touching the tensioner, but the outer cover was too hot to hold my finger against. My belts would disintegrate and leave a black sooty mess.

Hankstone40 - I have a TL 1500 FSC that I bought new in 2011. I cut about 30 acres of horse pasture per year. I used to "smoke" the drive belts frequently. I tried many things including better belts, matched belts, kevlar belts, serious tightening the belt tension (required running with cover...

johnk369 - Wholegoods are ordered and sold by the new tractor salesman at my Kubota dealership. If you don't have a dealer, call the nearest Kubota dealer and ask for "Sales". You may have to talk to more than one salesman before you get one knowledgeable in Wholegoods. A WARNING if you are...

johnk369 - I have a B7500 tractor which I bought new in 2003. It is the original model of your tractor. I bought a new B2781B front snowblower, B2733A quick hitch, B2734 mid pto kit and B2736 front half pto kit for my B7500 in 2017. Everything was new except the tractor. The B2733A listed...

Nice build. A work of art.

pattyt21 - As explained by others, the quick attach allows you to easily exchange buckets, forks, and other attachments to your loader arms. My quick attach is specific (not skid steer) for Kubota BX attachments, so my bucket had to be modified. This also allows me to mow and do other tasks...

Patty21 - I have a B7500 HSD-R that I bought new in 2003. I use it with a 60" mid mount mower to finish mow 2-2.5 acres of lawn, with a 59" flail mower to cut 5 acres of horse pasture and 2 acres of former hay field (rough in places). I have a 60" rear blade, the 48" bucket on the front end...

Welcome!

jbbwv Sorry, try this, HOME | Stabilworks.

Allen - I don't believe that you will find a Kubota telescoping stabilizer kit for the B7500. My local dealer"s whole goods salesman could not find one. Messicks told me they do not have such a kit for the B7500, although they are buying and selling locally-made conversions for other B-Series...

hunt4570 - I had no problem with rust. Everything came apart easily and went back together easily.

hunt4570 -I have had a TL1500FSC since 2011, which I use to cut about 30 acres of horse pasture per year. I have never sharpened the blades, but did reverse them once, probably about 5 years ago. I lifted the mower as high as it would go with my 3pt and blocked it up with 4x4s under the skids. I...

The Tach-N-Go Quick Attach from WWW.MYTRACTORTOOLS.COM is now available for the Kubota B7500 tractor with LA302 front end loader. I have the first production model installed on my B7500, along with a set of 42" quick attach pallet forks, also from MYTRACTORTOOLS. My existing OEM "Square...

Anyone have experience with a B2781B Snowblower on a B7500 HSD-R with LA302 FEL? Specifically, does the Brace for the LA302 need to be removed from the tractor, to be able to mount and/or operate a B2781B with B2733A Male Quick Hitch and Subframe? The Brace is Item #4 in Figure G-5720A on Page...

Can anyone point me to a LED plug-in replacement to the headlight bulbs that came with my 2003 Kubota B7500? The OEM headlight bulbs are 15 watt medium (intermediate) base, single contact, bayonet type incandescents, also known as BA15s. They are the same configuration as 1156 automotive...

Since most Caroni flail owners on TBN have TMs, I thought there might be interest in my initial observations on the smaller TL-Series, on a smaller CUT. My Caroni is a TL1500FSC, received 4/1/11, at a price of $1,756.35 including delivery to ZIP 48732 in Michigan. I just finished mowing my 5...

First, let me say that I love my TuffTop canopy. I certainly would not want to be without it! My TUFFTOP is a Model XL-52 that I bought new on 6/5/06. The canopy is mounted on a Kubota B7500HSD with rigid ROPS. Recently, I began having difficulty with the top staying square, that is, the right...

Has anyone used the BXPANDED Quick-On bucket hooks on a B7500 or other B-Series tractor bucket? I sure would like to add two grab hooks and one slip hook to my bucket. Harry at BXPanded has told me that looking into the B buckets is on their list of things-to-do, but obviously they have been...

OK, I think I have read every flail mower post on TBN. So now, I want a Caroni TL1500ASC for cutting my pasture and meadow. I am even ready to spend the money. But, I am not sure my tractor can handle the TL1500. My tractor is at the low end of the recommended tractor (engine) HP which is...

Am I the only one who is "Leaf Lazy"? I don't like raking leaves in the fall. And I really don't like picking leaves up and transporting them for disposal. My lawn is about two acres with over twenty trees, and I finish mow another acre of narrow lanes that are bordered by several hundred...

Signature Test

The operator's manual for my B7500 specifies replacing the secondary (inner) air cleaner element every year. I have changed it every 200 hours (12-15 months) since I bought the tractor new. I have not seen any trace of soiling on any of the three secondary elements that I have replaced. In a...

I just finished the 750 hour service on my 2003 B7500. So far, I have been able to do all the service myself. The 800 hour service requirement includes adjustment of engine valve clearance. The manual says, "Consult your local KUBOTA dealer for this service." I have never adjusted valves on any...

This is a new one for me. I have a freeze-proof hydrant in the barn. Its been in operation since 1994, and except for one freeze-up when I forgot to unhook a hose, it has worked without any problems. Two nights ago, I noticed that it was whistling while shut off. It was faint, steady and sounded...

In the past, I always parked (that is, detached) my rear blade with the concave side of the moldboard toward the rear of the tractor. However, I found that my new Woods RB72 with parking stand and skid shoes was a little tippy when it was detached from the tractor, with the concave side toward...

I'm looking at a B2650 front mount snowblower for use on my 2003 B7500 HSD. The snowblower was bought new with a 2004 B2410 HSD. Both tractors have FELs (LA302, LA352) and RCK60-24B MMMs. Does anyone know if the subframe and PTO are the same for both tractors? Also, the current owner of the...

Does anyone have an ATI pin-type quick attach on a LA302 loader? I'm considering one for alternating between my Square 48 bucket and a set of 42" forks. I would use the forks for lifting small square hay bales. The pallet fork frame and forks look like they would be ideal for lifting 4 bales at...

Has anyone had a problem closing the hood on their B7500 due to interference with the fuel cap? On three hot days, after hard mowing for several hours, my hood would not close because it was hitting the fuel cap. The first time, I was able to close the hood after turning the cap so that one of...

Is anyone using a CD burner with Windows 98 (not 98SE)? I have a 1998 Dell Dimension V350, Pentium II at 350 MHz running Windows 98. I have been backing up my files to diskettes, but the addition of digital photograph files is too much for the diskettes. I would like to back up to CDs, and...

I just finished the 50 hr. maintenance for my 2003 B7500 HST, LA302 FEL, and RCK60-24B mmm. I now have two new questions: 1) How do you "lubricate" the "front center anti-scalp roller" on the RCK60-24B mmm, and the "joints of control lever linkage" for the LA302 FEL? Spray WD-40? Grease...
