    Tiller  Howard Tillers - BX1800/L3830/BX22

    In the market for a rotary tiller for mom's BX1800. Our dealer gave my mom a quote for a 42" and 50". Saying both would work on the BX(he is our Kubota dealer). So I'm trusting they would fit the "limited" hitch. No front ballast required(no loader on BX). I'm leaning toward the 50" since it...

    I purchased a demo BX1800 two weeks ago with about 55 hours on it. The dealer did no service to it so I asked them for the fluids/filters. They have not found the owners manual and have ordered one for me and I need to know where to clean the screen out when I change my fluid and filter. Thanks

    BX1800 or BX2200

    I recently bought 2.5 acres of land. There are no trees or hills on the property. The land is flat. I primarily will be using my BX for mowing the entire property. I'll do other odd jobs using the tractor. Because of a tight budget is the BX1800 a better tractor for my needs.
