kubota bx2200

Evening, Thinking about adding a FEL to my old BX2200D - I don't know the year, but its been around the block a bit. Only really gets used for towing a trailer of logs or cutting grass with a 60" deck. I want to be able to do more with it....ideally hedge cutting or adding a FEL. It seems the...

First post - So fingers crossed! I've an old Kubota BX2200 D - Its always been a little temperamental starting. Takes a good few go's before things turn over. I serviced last year cleaned starter motor & new battery. Everything seemed peachy and motor would start almost immediately. This year...

OK, this issue has been visited close to a million times on this site (that may be a slight exaggeration), but what I'm seeing is not mentioned where I have looked/searched. The problem, not an unusual one, points to a fault with power to the stop solenoid. I will try the key, it'll start and...

Have a bx2200 that the steering would quit when the tractor got warm. There is a bulletin on this to either rebuild or replace the cylinder. I chose to replace it. After I got it back together it turned to full lock to the right and now will not go back. Any ideas what could have gone wrong.

I think the gear selector (hydro) is out of adjustment (assuming there is a safety interlock there). I know it needs to be in neutral to start. No crank 2 days ago (no clicking of solenoid by the way) so I moved the hydro stick back and forth and it started. Today same thing but no amount of...

I've searched other BX2200 power loss threads and found none matching my situation. This one has about 900 hrs on it. I've had it for 20 years. Garage kept. Nothing remarkable aside from being well kept for at least the last 700 hours and 20 years. Generally very reliable. Have fixed many...

Update. Tank off showing how to avoid emptying but no idea from where it's leaking and would need to feed fuel somehow to see but stopping for the night. 5 last pictures attached UPDATE: relating to last photo with blue dye in hydraulic fluid showing where the leak is emanating from... I need...

My trusty 2001 BX2200 with 1000 hours has got me stumped. It cranks but won't start. I've tried the most obvious fixes including: - drain tank and refill with fresh fuel - replaced both fuel filters - removed and cleaned fuel injectors (first time since purchased new) - replaced glow plugs...

Just to the right of the "1/10" explanatory printed mark beside the hour meter is a tiny window with a small vertical white mark that seems to alternate from white to black (or gone) when the engine is running. It is not fast but kind of blinking on and off and on ... maybe 2 or 3 seconds...

EDIT 3: wrong bolt - needed the shorter one I had originally ordered but did not receive for $5. Luckily I told them to hold onto it for me if / when it came in. This one is too long to fit and could not have been lost. Will call in the morning. Check pic. zen EDIT 2: received bolt... looking...

installing a LA211 on my BX2200D, just installed the Hyd. Block however, Im having a hell of a time trying to figure out how the Hyd. lines are supposed to be routed on the tractor, I know that they are formed specifically for the tractor, however, Im finding difficulty figuring out where they...

My loader will not go up or down. The bucket will still turn down or up but the loader itself just stopped going up or down while I was using it. The control arm will still flip the bucket up or down when I move the control arm right or left, but won't move at all when I push forward or...

Friends, while mowing today, white smoke wafted out from under the hood. It was about an hour or so into the mow. About 3 minutes after I first fired it up at the beginning of the mow, it just conked out, which it has never done. It started up with no issue, but did it again about 10 minutes in...

Turning key results in provides power to fuel pump and glow plugs but not solenoid. UPDATE from further testing: did not find a seat switch. Mower is on so the speed control switch can't be checked right now. Pulled ignition switch plug and although the green wire at the back of the connector...

Hi, New here and i hope im asking the right question but i just got a BX22 series recently and couldn't be happier, although with my lack of knowledge i do not know if this is normal or not. When in 4wd i will hear and feel like a clicking noise from under my feet and ill also feel it as it...

2nd final update: flushing with water 3 - 4 times and finally some kind of blockage came out eventually clear water. Closed it up, added 50:50 coolant and it ran at normal operating temperature. Might return the gauge and infrared gun I bought tbd. I don't see big bubbles in the radiator nor did...

I recently purchased a 2003 bx2200d. After repairing a mid-pto shift problem and during reassembly, I made a bonehead move and broke the front case of the HST assembly. I am having difficulty finding a used HST assembly, part number k2561-14002. All of the used listings I find online are call...

I have one RCK60B-22BX deck on my own BX2200 and another on my daughter's machine. The daughter's machine was treated rough by a previous owner but in good operating condition since I acquired it for her in late 2014. Her deck is noticeably much more noisy than mine. I'd call it a "rumble" more...

Helping my grandfather with his early 2000's Kubota BX2200 ready for cutting grass. The tractor will crank and run will holding the key in the start position, as soon as you release the key it dies. I have cleaned the battery connections and charged the battery fully. I don't think it is a...

I sheared the front axle pin but can't drive the remainder out of the shaft. My question is if the axle is held onto the rear shaft with a quick disconnect collar that will allow me to remove the axle from the tractor to more easily get the pin out? There is a collar back there that spins but...

Good day everyone, I am new to the forum and have never owned a tractor so if you can, please be gentle on me. One of my friends bought a home in the country here in Texas, in one of the old barns he found a 2005 Kubota BX2200 completely covered in dirt/mud/chicken droppings. It looked pretty...

I have a BX2200 and it seems to be having low power. I've only had it a couple months and its been running fine until recently. When going up hill cutting grass the RPMS start getting low and it just seems like its lacking power. I havent noticed this problem until last week. I changed both...

I recently bought a used Kubota BX2200 that is coming up on 800 hours. I need to change a leaking hydraulic hose and while I'm at it, I'm gonna change the transmission oil and filter. I'm new to tractors and would sure appreciate input on a couple questions I have; 1:What are the best places...

Well, I'm due for another set of axle seals and bearings... These lasted longer than the originals by 1600 hours (beat by 300 hours). However, I'm a little upset. Not because I don't want to do the job, it's the fact I just serviced this machine with new SUDT2 and filter and it's only got 6...

I spent an hour looking for the FUEL SHUT OFF TIMER RELAY on my BX2200. A Parts Diagram shows it mounted to the firewall up under the dash, next to the Blinker Module. I can plainly see the Blinker Module, but there is NO FUEL SHUT OFF TIMER RELAY anywhere to be found under the dash. I looked...

I have a bx2200 and have been looking at rear snowblowers, I have been told 48-52” but found a like new inland 60” is that too big for the bx2200. Also for reference I like on top of a hill in upstate NY and average snowfall is 120” a year, so I will be using it.

I was mowing a low hill at about 40 degrees incline (going up) when my BX2200 gas gauge went to way below empty ... and there it sits. So far no amount of jiggling or addition of fuel has changed the position of the needle. Fuses are all good. I'd welcome ideas about the cause ( float stuck...

I recently purchased an almost new Kubota BX Grass Catcher for my BX2200 w/60" deck (RCK60B-22BX). The grass catcher was previously on a BX1500 w/48" deck so I have some conversion work to perform. It mounts up fine to the PTO, frame, etc, but the area I am needing to fabricate or purchase some...

This is my daughter's BX2200D with a 60" MMM. I bought it used four or five years ago and it has been a good machine (as is my own BX2200 just like it except for tires.) The Problem: The deck will not raise and lower normally. Hydraulic lift worked fine for years. Now the deck will not...

Well, after 18 years, one of the steering hoses finally popped a leak... it's not the ones that go to the steering rack itself, it's the ones that go from the pump to to the hydraulic unit to assist with the steering. I noticed it the other day when I parked it after mowing. Ordered a new set...

I'm getting no reading from the thermostat of the BX2200. I did just replace the Stop Solenoid. I don't see anything that I missed putting back(everything seems to work fine). Didn't want to go get another thermostat if it's just a wire that I missed but I don't see anything and all the fuses...

Hello All, Thank you in advance for reading this. I have a BX2200 with ~1200 hours on it. Purchased about two years ago and has ran great ever since until now. The issue I am having is that the tractor will barely move in forward or reverse. When I press on the pedal, it shudders very...

My BX2200 had a puddle of Hydraulic fluid under the rear end. After cleaning and checking everything it appears the oil is running down the sides of the HST and is coming from the top HST vent (out the two side threaded holes at the top of the HST). I looked through the manuals and diagrams...

Hey all, First tractor and still learning what is normal and not. I noticed oil on ground in garage when i moved my tractor out the other day. It seems to be coming from both sides of of the front of the tractor around the bevel gear case by the tires. Is this normal? I see the fluid fill...

Hi Everyone, first time poster here. So, I just moved from Arizona where there's nothing but dirt, rock, and cactus to Missouri where I now have several acres of green stuff on the ground that I've been told is called grass. It's been a bit of a learning curve, but I think I'm making progress...

Hello, friends. Thankful to be here. I recently inherited a nice Kubota BX2200 with 600 hrs on it. I love this machine. I have noticed a noise coming from what I think is the HST (in the back between the back wheels) while I'm sitting still, even idling, but only after the tractor has done...

I notice there is a lot of scuffing, grinding of the rear tires on the pavement on my BX2200 when making sharp turns .... what's the best way to check that the diff lock is not stuck engaged?

Does anyone know what the actual U-Joint part number is for a 2001 BX2200? I'm not looking for the assembly part number I already have that: K2561-16820 and that part is $70-$85 plus shipping. I just want to replace the U-joint not the whole assembly. Anyone able to replace just the U-joint...

Had my BX2200 in the shop for a hydraulic leak. Technician was having problems with neutral safety switch, so I told him to go ahead and replace it. When I got the tractor back, it would turn off in neutral & stay running in gear when I got off the seat. Found out he had pulled the wires from...

I have a 2001 BX2200 with less then 700 hrs on it. I've changed the hydro oil and filter several times, with Kubota oil & filters, never finding metal filings in the used oil. The oil is at the full mark on the stick. The problem I'm having is with the loader bucket. Sometimes when I set the...

Looks like I have a hose on the loader that has sprung a leak. Can anyone tell me the fitting size and thread type, I think the hose are 1/4" but I'd like to get some fittings from Surplus Center and use hoses with male or female ends instead of having expensive hose made up with expensive...

Can the pto clutch on a BX2200 be adjusted. The belly mower deck seems to be slipping. The belt is new.

Anyone know the proper current part number for a BX2200 Tie Rod End? The number I have is: k256116610 but seems to have been superseded half a dozen times. Also some crazy prices out there ... just need the end itself, not the rod extension, nut, boot etc. I think it's number 80 on the...

Today I shattered the front glass on the Curtis Cab on my BX200. Does anyone know an alternative to paying $576 for the new Curtis glass? Unfortunately it has several mounting holes for hinges, wipers etc. so a plain replacement isn't going to work. Thanks.

I can't my 3 point to go up

Tractor has been starting great all winter in sub freezing temps. Pulled it outside to thaw snow from bucket for the day. Started and put tractor to bed. Next day tractor cranks but will not start. Checked glow plugs good. Next thought water in fuel. Put a little treatment in tank and changed...

has any one tried the kubota 6315 quick attach on a first gen bx2200?

Had to rebuild the bucket actuator. After blowing three different hoses on the bucket actuator removing snow, I realized the actuator was binding on a failing seal, and then the actuator seal blew out. I created this report so I could remember what I did, it's the engineer in me. I figured I'd...

Hi, I have an early 2000's model BX2200 tractor. Trying to get a new LA-211 loader to work. We ran the hydraulic lines per the installation manual and were unable to get the loader to work. Basically installed a block onto the transmission with following lines, power, power beyond and return...

I have seen many threads about BX2200 lighting improvements, but haven't seen a solid answer about auxiliary LED lights. I bought my BX2200 in 2000, so later models probably have different power supplies? I tried LED bulbs in the "headlight" sockets and they flickered constantly, they were...

Has anyone solved the continuous breaking of the air filter bracket. The last one I bought was a 2 piece, last year. Lasted maybe a year.

I sprung a leak in a FEL hose, and got anew one. I checked the hydraulic oil and it was low. I had some Super S 303 on hand, and filled it to the correct spot on the dip stick, I had to add a gallon or more. Now the FEL will not rise in full pull back position, I have to pull all the way...

I have a 2001 Kubota BX2200 and the hydraulic lever came mounted on the front end loader. To use the snow blower I have to remove it from the loader and use it free standing in its frame position. I have noticed that the later BX tractors come with the hydraulic lever mounted on the tractor...

anyone have experience changing hydraulic steering lines on bx2200? I am not sure which one of the two that are sleeved together is leaking. they are the two that run from under steering wheel through "firewall" and under floor to back of machine. this looks like its going to suck to do, since...

fuel pump delivers fuel to injector pump solenoid functions ...I removed it and see it works key and starter ok...interlock for pto and fast/slow seen ok since it cranks disconnected one injector line,,,it spits what seems a tiny amount of fuel but I dont know what to expect. Anything else...

I've repaired and replaced my headlight switch on my BX2200 multiple times in it's lifetime. I am now trying to find a suitable replacement... I was reading this thread: https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-owning-operating/180001-crappy-switches-bx-2200-a-2.html Post in particular...

I am looking for some help in replacing the rear main seal on my bx2200. I have had this tractor for a short time and all of a sudden it is leaking oil. Funny part is it doesn't look like the oil level is low at all but right where it should be. The oil that has leaked is under the front part of...

Does anyone have any pictures of how their steel tubes for loader run underneath their BX2200 for their LA211 loader? Particularly where the lift arm is for the MMM. If someone could take a picture of their MMM arm lifted and lowered where those loader tubes are, that would be sweet! My lift...

Similar to many of the old threads, I have had the problem of everything powering up and the starter just clicking, but then starting after multiple turns of the key. Today's problem was similar, but a little different, then got worse. My son was mowing today, and he shut the tractor down to...

Anyone know how to fix intermittent "limp bucket" on bx2200? I have been having issues with the bucket on my fel loosing all holding power when back blading. ( I am not digging in at a backwards angle) I set blade to desired angle set it on loose dirt pile start to pull back and bucket acts...

I found a used LA211 Loader with the joystick control mounted to it. It appears that my tractor is missing lines underneath to connect to the loader. Can I buy these new? Can a hydraulic supply shop make these? I don't know a ton about hydraulics so hoping someone can point me in the right...

Need a new grass collection box for my BX2200 and have the chance of a newer 2014 year one but the mounting seems different. Does anyone know if this style will fit or if it can be easily adapted.

I found a bx2200 with 60" belly mower, la211 loader, 48" box grader blade and 48" rototiller for $6500 private part because the owner is buying a new tractor. Now he says he wants to keep the tiller and grader, possibly mower too for his new tractor because his dealer said they would work. Can a...

I'm having a hard time finding the part numbers for the pins that are used to attach and adjust the height of the 4 anti-scalp wheels that are on the outside edges of my BX's 60" deck. Anybody have that info? Thx.

Has anybody changed the seals on the pivot pin that holds front axle on? It looks pretty straight forward, but like anything when it comes to wrenching on things there can always be surprises and tricks to make the job easier....any advise?

I'm looking for a small 4wd machine to keep my driveway clear and mow a couple acres of lawn. I would like to spend $5000, but I can go up to $8k. I had another thread going on here, but I've really narrowed down what I want. I want 4wd, diesel, belly mower(54-60") and snowblower. Not much in...

I have been tractor shopping for close to a year and it's getting close to time to pull the trigger. I find myself stuck between buying an older one to save a little money or buying an early new one that has warranty left as well as more power etc. I have a new 2 acre with a big long driveway to...

Hi everyone. I have a RCK60BX mower deck on my 03 BX2200. My question to you folks is the clearance of the deck to the rear tires. After all these years I noticed the gap between the rear tires and the deck is different on the left vs right side. On the right the deck clears by 1/2", on the...

HI all, I got a lot of great advice & help on this forum back when my BX2200 and I were younger. I've been seeing a lot of hydraulic problems (I'm typing right now b/c I'm avoiding the greasy mess of replacing a hard FEL line - in a tight/knuckle-cutting//dirty space - again (replaced all ~9...

Hi guys, I just bought a BX2200; it's both the first tractor I've owned and the only tractor I've ever used, so I've got some learning to do. I'd like to get some basic instrumentation on this thing; having to make do with an oil pressure idiot light and a coolant temperature gauge that...

I need some thoughts and opinions... I am looking at a Woodmaxx 62" Flail Mower on a BX2200 for mowing my lawn. Some said that I should go with the 54" model, but I want the same cutting width as my 60" MMM. However, most have told me that it will work fine for light duty (general mowing of...

After mowing our field, I noticed a rubber boot/shaft seal lying in the grass. I have a BX2200 with a 54" MMM and bagger. I checked the front axles and the axle boots appear to be okay. Does anyone know where this might have come from?

I recently ordered 2 new Gladiator 6-ply rear tires for my BX2200. The old tires (Titan 4-ply) were dry rotted...one was fluid filled with a leaky repair plug in it...one was not filled but was leaking through a crack. Long story short, the new Gladiator tires were puchased for $68 each from...

Been awhile since I posted here, but I still have my BX2200 and still enjoy the heck out of it. Had an issue arise and I'm not sure where to turn. Last time I used the bota, the motor was cutting out like I'd turned off the ignition. It never completely died, as it would sputter, then take...

My BX2200 has a Curtis soft cab on it .... the kind with the steel frame, windshield, wiper etc. with Vinyl stretched over the frame. It's a few years old and I'm getting tired of taping up holes. I checked Curtis Cabs parts lookup ... besides being a big ambiguous in their parts naming and...

I have recently been working on a 2002 (label on engine stated 2002) JD LV 4010 HST diesel with Land Pride FDR1648 finishing mower for a friend. The tractor had been sitting for quite some time, so he brought it to my garage and I have given it a detailed once over. So far, I have replaced the...

Hi All, I have a Kubota BX2200 that I would like to add an extra valve/function to. I've looked at the threads already posted about doing just this BUT my situation has a little twist. The tractor has an early LA211 loader with the loader valve that stays on the loader when its removed. All of...

Bx 2200 with 600 hrs belly mower recently have had grinding with application of pto to belly mower, possibly less marked at reduced throttle speed. Quick review of the forum suggests that this is a hydraulic clutch pto, and it seems little I can do for troubleshooting or repair (other than...

I can remove the loader with no problems.. I put the one male hydraulic into the female. AND or leave them all disconnected. Either way me deck mower will not raise or lower with the FEL removed.. What am I doing wrong? Kenneth

Good morning all. I'm selling my BX2200 and one element of research I'd like to do is to understand the current MSRP (and street price if you know it) for the current comparable model to BX2200. I see they've got several BX models now, and I've not really kept up with them. I know that Kubota...

I changed the infamous 600hr blown steering lines under the floor on my BX2200. What a PITA - running them under the frame with the fuel lines instead of on top of it would've made it a 20 minute job instead of the 4-hour job that it was. It wasn't really a hard job, you just have to pull the...

I have been having a big time. 5 years of great service and this 550 hour tractor dumped on me. After replacing the 2 filters, fuel pump the tractor tries to start. I also drained the tank and vacuumed out all the debris in the tank, which was surprising at what all was in there. Sometimes it...

I was wondering what mower blades you guys were using. A few years ago I switched to the Gator blades, which seemed a little heavier that the OEM blades. I didn't run them last year and just put them back on tonight. I do see a difference in the cut. I have the regular 54" deck. I notice that...

Just bought 2 new axial ball joints for my bx2200. I am having trouble unscrewing them from the hydraulic steering shaft as the shaft is rotating when I try to unscrew them. Is there a trick?

Has anyone else had the left side of the mmm come loose from the spring loaded pin? Mine did 2 times today...simple fix...pull the pin outwards, lift the deck by hand...reinsert pin into deck bracket...

My BX2200 leans a few degrees to the left .... tire pressures all good. Has a cab which makes the lean even more obvious. When I put a level on the top of the ROPS it shows the tractor is probably off an inch side to side. Nothing bent, tractor operates and drives as it should. Proper size tires...

I know threads have been posted in the past on this issue, but most of them date back to when the BX2200 was still in production. With the BX2200 being out of production (and warranty), what have people been installing? Going OEM or aftermarket? I hear that Kubota will still build a limited...

Hello, it's my first time posting, but I'm looking for a manual for my deck and have search far and wide and ended up downloading crap and viruses. I'd appreciate any help in finding this manual.

My hydro pedal is sticky, and the pivot won't take grease. I have to take it apart and clean up the pivot pin so I can get it to take grease again, but I can't figure out how to get to the pivot without tearing the tractor in half. Any clue?

Just wondering if anybody is close to the Houston area that would be interested in trading/selling. My BX2200 has turf tires and in good shape but I want Ag tires. If I'm understanding it, I cant just get the new Ag's and mount to my rims. I need tires and rims. So, just throwing some feelers...

first time to remove belly mower.....easy until I try to uncouple the pto. Instructions mention retracting cover and rotating..... The cap/cover can be wiggled some, but I cannot retract it or rotate. OK, at age 73 its difficult to get to the thing.....(thats my age, not the mower).. Am I...

I know that backhoes on BX2200 has been the subject of topic many times on here, and believe me, I have probably read every one. I'm aware of the pros and cons and without belaboring any points I am set on adding a BT601 (already bought) to my BX2200. What I am currently contemplating is...

I am looking for a thatcher with tines to use on my BX 2200. I know they exist, but when you go to the dealer it would be easier asking for a unicorn. I saw a picture the other day of just such a attachment I am looking for that was on a 3 pt hitch on a 2350. Had nice adjustable wheels and...

I remember reading about several BX2200s having some kind of problem that results in the keyswitch doing nothing when you hit start - just click, click, click. Then it starts. Mine is doing that now. I think it was a grounding line that needed to be re-connected or something like that - don't...

Anyone replace the seat on a BX2200? Mines a 2003 and the seat is all cracked and pealing. Time to find a replacement and thought I'd see what others have used. I haven't checked the hole spacing yet, but I saw both TSC and Northern Tool had some decent replacements.

What a day! I had a day off from work yesterday, so I decided to get my bx2200 ready for the summer. I changed the oil/filter, coolant, air filter, and fuel filters. It took a little over an hour and done?.nope. Hop on the tractor, it won稚 start. My first thought was the fuel filters. Why? I...

Because of difficulty starting BX2200, I am now tracing wires...eventually to starter /safety switches and the like. Access to safety switches by removing wheels is ok...and I know how to get the "bonnet"/ top off of engine cover. What are the side panels called .."cowling" or what.. cant find...

When I start the Kubota, the engine stops when I release the key to on. And when I turn the key all the way to start the engine it blows a fuse. I think this is why the engine stops when I release the key. Why does it blow a fuse.

Hi everyone. I recently bought a property and acquired a Kubota BX2200 as part of the deal. It has about 400 hours on it. So far it has run well for the few hours I have used it, only needing some hydraulic lines for the front end loader. Today I started it for the first time in about 4...

I recently purchased a Kubota BX2200 with LA112 Front Loader and 60" MMM for $7500. The tractor has slightly over 400 hours and I just changed the air filter, front axle fluid and hydrostatic fluid/filter. I removed and cleaned the strainer during the hydro change. I also greased the loader...

I have a bx2200 and when i place it in low or high drive it wants to stall out as i drive along. What could be the cause?

Hi everyone! I thought I'd pop back in to see if someone can give me a sense of direction on how to asses a value for my BX2200. I bought it the summer of 2001. It has 425 hours on it. I've done all of the services (and then some right.... we're TBN'ers!!!! haha). It is a Kubota 60" deck...

Hello all, This is my first time on this or any forum, please bear with me. I'm actually trying to help my father in law. He has a kubota bx2200 that stalled on him. We pulled the fuel line at the upper filter and were getting just dribbles of fuel. We replaced both the filter underneath and...

Hello all having an issue with the steering on my bx2200 I noticed while mowing at different times the steering wheel can be turned maybe half a turn and the front tires never move? Like there was air in the system or something? The manual says about fluid in the tranny may be low and it was...

Hello I'm new here but had a question for the forum, was wondering which model backhoe will fit on a bx2200 and how good they work on this size tractor. Thanks in advance!

Running fine then dies. Will run fine if key held in starter position. If I release to normal "on" position it dies. Bad ignition switch? other? Will

Bx2200 keeps blowing 20 amp solenoid fuse any ideas for fix

I have a Kubota BX2200 that no longer raises the mowing deck on the left side. My father-in-law used to use the mowing deck to step on to get onto & off of the tractor but only recently has the left side failed to raise when the mowing deck is raised. I suspect that a set screw has been broken...

Hi all, My BX2200 recently developed a low pressure fuel leak between the second and third high pressure outlets on the injection pump. I pulled it apart and replaced the o rings which solved the leak. Unfortunately the 2nd outlet now doesn't pump any fuel I have had it apart again and the...

After mowing for a while (1-2 hrs.) I find an oil film on the battery compartment cover and on the bottom of the dash. With the covers off and the engine running I cannot find the leak. I believe it is in one of the four power steering hoses and/or fittings at the steering regulator ,but, I...

My starter just clicked when I turned the key, if you did it enough it would finally start. I got a new starter and it worked great for about a month now it is doing the same thing. Anyone else had starter issues with the BX2200? Thanks, Rodney

Hi, I have a 2001 BX2200. I've had it for 5 or so years and I have been putting 100+ hours a year on it. Lately, it seems to be "weak" while bushhoging and turning uphill. When I press the gas it seems to struggle and the tractor makes this whinning noise until it gets going again. This only...

All but one of my 60" mowing deck wheel posts are frozen and I can not free them up. I have tried multiple coats of penetrating oil to no avail. I have hit them with a hammer while supporting the deck and still no movement. All suggestions would be greatly appreciated. wayne

My BX2200 has the classic full-tank leak issue - defective sending unit seal or something like that. I try to fill it to <3/4 tank, but often overshoot and end up with a little puddle dribbling down my rear tire...you all know what I'm talking about. I don't know about you guys, but my BX gets...

My BX2200 has a 60" MMM deck - is was quite out of level side-to-side (~3/4") when I got it. The manual has no description of how to level the deck side-to-side, only front to back, which I don't understand either. I think they missed some things when stuffing 3 different deck designs into the...

This is the 3rd season and i've tried at least 20 times to adjust the deck with no luck. The deck is perfectly level with the gauge wheels about 1/2" from the ground. I'm wondering if there is just too much slack or something is worn to cause it to bounce like that. I thought it was just...

Backed the Ole Kubota BX2200 into my detached tiller and BAM there goes the left rear tail light lens AND the fuel tank fuel line attachment point (tit?) which is right behind the wheel fairing!!?!? Yep cracked it I heard it crack CRACK any who by messing around and applying finger pressure I...

Great site, been wanting a BX for a while and now that I have one and used it for some time, I have an issue I'm trying to address... While mowing the HST get really hot as to were I can smell it. The fan is present and working. I make sure that the lift arm is in the middle position after...

I bought my BX2200 new in 2002 (loaded ag tires,front and back with washer fluid). I am thinking about upgrading to A BX25D1 with 60 mmm and maybe A thumb, or make one later . I love my 2200, but I kinda need A few and hoe around the place so my back doesn't hurt so much. My good buddy and close...

Has about 800 hrs on it. Bought used from dealer who said it had a lot of water in the fuel system. They replaced all the filters, drained the fuel, cleaned it out and seemed to run fine when bought. After maybe 5 or 6 hours usage it began to bog down and balk at mowing (60" deck.) Struggled to...

Hi, Just brought home my first BX, a BX2200 with 54" deck and FEL. My Deck seems to lower once I have lifted it on the left side that the right, is there an adjustment for that? Thanks Ashley.

My 2002 BX2200 developed a power steering hose leak...either the supply to the steering unit or the return to the hydraulic unit. The two hoses run together through a soft sleeve under the floor pan from the hydraulic unit to the steering column. I'm looking for input from those who may have...

Hi I need advice help please. I have a 2005 bx2200 with a d905 diesel three cylinder 1876 hours and the front piston cracked in half top half scratched the head bottom half scored the cylinder into the water jacket. What to do. I'm broke have kids got into a bad car wreck just had my third...

The battery on my BX2200 is not charging and the "Charge System" lamp is always on. I checked the workshop manual and there are a couple of issues possible. One of them is a loose connection. When I removed the panel, I found a hanging set of wires (See picture). The wires are black, white...

I am looking for a used loader for a BX2200. I know the LA211 is the correct Kubota model. I'm wondering what other aftermarket options are or were available and looking for insights from anyone who has used them as to quality. If you know of one for sale, let me know. Thanks.

I have had my BX for three years now and just started mowing my one acre with the MMM. I notice when doing FEL work or roto-tilling the yard the temp only moves up about a quarter of the temp gauge. When I mow the temp goes up to about 1/3 of the gauge. Does this seem normal? I work the BX...

I am looking for a replacement hood for my BX2200. mine has a crack where it attaches on the front near the bolts that hold it in place.

I found a local guy who has a Kubota BX2200 4WD for sale with a 60" belly mower and a loader. He says that the front light cover and the back lights are broken, but other than that it's in good condition. However it has 2,879 hours on it. He's asking $7,000 for it. I'm a little hesitant...

I Just purchased a used quick hitch for the front of my BX2200. Everything seemed to fit well, but the mid PTO dive shaft that drives the blower seems to be about 3'' too long. Can this be cut, rewelded and fit to size before I purchase a new one? Dave

My BX2200 has nearly 800 hrs. on it. Maintenance requirement is for a valve clearance check and I wonder if it is worth doing. Has anyone done it? What did you find? I use my tractor for mowing and snow blowing and have not noticed any drop in performance so I wonder if this check is necessary...

I am looking for a starter motor cross reference. I thought I remembered seeing someone on here many years ago posting something about a Toyota starter motor cross reference but for the life of me I can't find the thread. I have a Kubota BX2200 with a Denso Starter part #16235-63012 (or...

Friends, I am in the market for a rear-mounted snow blower for my Kubota BX2200. I decided to get the rear-mounted so that I can keep the bucket mounted. It also seems to be a much simpler rig and is about $1500 cheaper. I contacted one dealer who recommended a Bervac Blizzard 54" that costs...

Went to Fire up The 'Bota for our big PA snowfall.. No Fire and no Up LOL..... Plugged it into the charger and showed the battery not taking a charge. jump started it for the day and then headed to Wally world for a new Battery. I knew it have been 3-4 years at least. So I got a new 26-R...

Hi All, Is it normal for UDT to darken within 100hrs I changed the fluid approximately 100hrs ago and I have notice it is getting darker. Not a lot but noticeable. Anyone know if this is normal?

The bucket curl cylinder on my 2003 BX2200 is leaking pretty bad at the shaft seal. Has anyone repaired one of these themselves or should I just take it to a hydraulics shop?

Hey Everyone, I found a good deal on a Kubota BX2200. The tractor comes with turf tires on it. I posted earlier about wanting to know how narrow your BX tractor is. I am using this tractor to run a PTO mist sprayer on our Christmas Tree farm and need the tractor to be 40" or under. I cannot find...

Hi All, Does anyone know of an economical tach for the BX2200? Dave

My BX2200 loader recently stopped moving up smoothly. I was pushing fallen branches out of a seasonal pond on my property and the loader suddenly did not want to go up unless I repeatedly pushed the joystick down. It would å±*ump a couple of inches each time I tried to raise it. All of the...

Leaking diesel fuel from under injection line... before I figure out how to remove the pump and bring it to a specialist, should I go buy a special bit & pull off the flange to see if I can somehow check there & stop the leak? I did tighten the injector but it didn't do much if anything... could...

I知 Long time viewer first time poster looking for some valuable help. I just purchased a 2003 BX2200. Not my first Kubota. Had a b8200 once, wish I kept it. Anyway, following day I did a thorough check over. Noticed the hydraulic filter was original. With 548 hours on it I decided it was well...

Hi, my kubota D905 engine fitted to my BX2200 (smiley) is in need of a rebuild. In order to get "smiley" running again in quick time, I am considering fitting a used D1005 or D1105 engine both of which develop their rated HP at 3000RPM as opposed to the D905 which develops it's rated HP at...

I just recently purchased a bx2200. The lady didn't know the year (how do I find it?) but it had 300 hours on. I bought it with a soft side Curtis cab, 50" snow blower, LA211 FEL and a rear drag blade. Did not come with any manuals..... Was hoping to purchase a bigger tractor but the price was...

I have a Kubota BX2200 with a FEL (LA211). The male quick connect has two o-rings in it (see picture attached). Does anyone know what the part numbers for these rings are as well as where to buy them? I was able to find similar ring at an auto store, but not sure how long they will last. Thanks

Hi Everyone, I just purchased a used (1400 hours) Kubota BX2200 with a belly mower from the local dealer today. They said it was a one owner machine bought from them new and serviced there regularly. The dealer said they went through it and had been using it to mow the property around the...

Hi all - my newish BX2200 had a glow plug failure this weekend. I also learned that a BX2200 is virtually un-startable when it's 40 degrees... which tells me there's no chance of using my soon-to-be completed snowblower project if I don't fix the glow plug issue. There was no dashboard light -...

Hi everyone, hoping for a little help on a price check for a used Kubota BX2200. Just when I was resigned to looking into an older tractor in the $4-$5k range (after my many attempts at convincing my wife how great of a deal a new option would be failed :D), this little Kubota came up on...

Left Tractor out in rain the other day. Started and ran briefly but then sputtered and died out. White smoke from the exhaust. Water in tank I presume. I changed out one fuel filter (the easy one) and drained tank and put in new gas. Ever since the tractor will turnover and keep running if I...

Hello all, I was going through the threads and couldn't find an answer to my question, so I figured I'd ask around... Looking into purchasing a used (but clean) grass catcher for my BX2200. It is a GCK60-BX that came off of a BX2200;however I have a RCK54-BX (54") deck. In checking with a...

Have a bx2200 tractor will only run if I hold the key in the start position. When I let go of key it just turns off. I have replaced the ignition switch and the stop solenoid. When I turn the key the 20 amp fuse also blows . Please help really need to get working asap. Any suggestions

1) When I turn on the key, but don't start the engine (glow-plug position, I think), there is a rapid clicking sound, like an electric fuel pump running. I had a motorcycle that did that once, but it stopped once pressure was achieved. This doesn't seem to stop, although I haven't let it sit...

Oh geeze. My deck is full of hydro fluid. Splashed up all over the place. Stripes on the lawn. Yuk. Still, 13 years old... I guess I can't complain too much. I tracked it down to approximately where the lines for the steering pass back up through the frame from the engine compartment...

Started off I had a noisy bearing on the left side of the deck. Took it apart and found the blade shaft was worn too so replaced both bearings and shaft on the left side and everything was great. Brother mowed twice with it and started making some other noise that sounded close to the same but...

I got a 600-hour BX2200 this weekend and used it today for the first time. It is very cute - everything is just sooooo teeny - and how I lived this long without a 60" mowing deck is beyond me - BUT, it's REALLY different than my good 'ol L4200GST, so I do have a few questions (some for those...

First off, I like to say thank you again for the excellent help I got regarding the hydrostatic transmission. I posted somewhere on tractorbynet. Not Kubota forum, I did not see that. It turned out I was still running factory fluid and filter. I kinda forgot, think I am 1000 or 1200 hrs now on...

Quite some time ago I indicated that I'd post my homemade BX2200 fan protector at the next hydraulic change. Instead of searching for the very old thread, here is a new one. In fact, I'm not sure this is the website. (This info will be copied/pasted to the other forum that I visit.) The device...

I bought my first Kubota today. It was advertised as a BX2200, but I noticed the tag says BX2200D. Just wondering what's the differences? Couldn't find anything about it. Thanks

The glow plug is doing the audible countdown OK, engine starts OK, turns off upon release of the key. Also turns off when holding the key and shifting to hydrostatic transmission lever to go. Any idea? Joe

Its time to change the oil and filter in my BX2200 and I would like to use filters other than what the dealer sells. Has someone crossed the filter over?

I just did my oil in the spring, so I'm good to go for a while, but having recently sold a car, I now realize I have a little stash of premium German synthetic oil (Liqui-Moly) that no longer has a purpose. It is rated for diesel (even the the car was not diesel). However it is 5W-30. I...

Ahhhhhhhh!!!!! This is my third season mowing with my BX2200 with 60" mmm, but my first without attaching my PTO bagger. For some REALLY annoying reason, my turf tires are tearing up the lawn on tight turns, even when going extremely slow. I tried letting some air out of the tires (down to 15...

After mowing for an hour, when driving straight and try to make a turn in either direction, the steering does not respond after turning the wheel a couple of turns. Hydraulic fluid is full. Thanks.

I bought my BX2200 in August of 2001. For me it has been the best mower ever. One thing I hopefully fixed is a persistent clicking noise in the left spindle hub of the MMM. It's been making the noise for about 3 seasons now and can be cured by tightening the top nut where the grease fitting...

I'm stumped. My BX2200 with 1600 hours has started acting up. When at full power and under load babe engine loses RPMs and starts blowing dark smoke. If I back off on the hydro I can keep it going. Happens mostly when mowing at full throttle, low range and uphill which is a significant load...

Hello, I am a new member with a problem. Heard that before? I have a Kubota BX2200 1000 hrs purchased used 5 years ago, with mid-mower and loader. Soon after I got home I notice the high range HST was would not pull when hot and seemed very weak or slow at any temperature. The low range might...

I seem to recall there were some die hard Redline oil guys, and some who preferred the OEM stuff. I need to get the job done this weekend and I'd like to just pick up some oil at autozone down the road. I actually still have a new WIX filter. Is there a good diesel oil that meets all the...

Last fall, my parents downsized and I ended up with their BX2200. I snowblowed with it this winter with no problems. Today it was time to service it. I warmed it up for a few minutes and then changed the oil, oil filter, both fuel filters and the hydro filter. I started it for perhaps 30...

Where is the best place to purchase a service manual for a BX2200D? Bought new in 2001, and only has 550 hours. I really just need an electrical schematic diagram. Am having some issues and need to troubleshoot, but it's tough without a schematic. Any help will be much appreciated.

has anyone had the steering cylinder leak on a bx2200 , its only one drip but can i replace just the end seal or o rings easily or is it a big job .many thanks.:mad::laughing:

The power steering hoses on my BX2200 started leaking recently. After doing research on the forums, I bought replacement hoses and started the job of installing the four new hoses. The tractor is apart. I've attached the new hoses to the steering cylinder up front. I ran into trouble while...

Has anyone had issues with Hydraulic filter like getting sapped off at the housing ,is there any way to take just the housing off are is it all one piece ,been trying to find a web site that would show the whole Tractor list of the drive Tran ,engine ,and body parts..................Thanks

Hi and good to be here. I am about to close on my new house in two weeks and have been researching heavily for about a month. The property is 4 acres with about 1.5-2 of grass. I also want to move snow and materials around. This has put me in the small SCUT and large GT categories. Anyway, I...

I have a BX2200 that has a bucket loader for the summer and a snow blower for the winter. Everything on the tractor is made by Kobota. Today, I installed the snow blower, but cannot get the up/down hydraulics to work. Spent all afternoon trying everything - swapping hose connections did not...

I have a Kubota BX2200 that I recently purchased, it has 800 hours. I bought it as a bare tractor as I had a bx2750 front mount blower to install on it. I hooked everything up yesterday and to my surprise the mid pto will not engage. There are no issues with the blower assembly, I know for...

I was trying to re-attach my LA211 loader and the ground was very soft. I could not get the loader lined up right and I ended up digging the loader into the soft ground and the loader arms are now stretched way out from the loader. I had to lift the arms and have my wife back the tractor up...

When i loaded my tractor up yesterday i noticed it was leaking fluid from the seal around where the front drive shaft enters the differental. I was wondering if this is a hard problem to fix. The tractor sat for many years until i bought it last yr with only 200hrs on it so the seals really...

Any metric sized hydraulic hose installed on the LA211 loader? Or, are they NPT and/or JIC 37 fittings ? Carl

While I was mowing this weekend, my BX2200 suddenly took off downhill. Thankfully, the tractor was pointed down the hill at the time and I was able to stop it before it went in the pond. When I got it back up to the house, I found a u-joint resting on the top of the mower deck. After taking the...

It time to replace the seat on the recently acquired BX2200, Im looking for a direct replacement with arm rests. What options do I have?

I want to change the oil in my recent acquired BX2200. I see in the owners manual that there is 3 different oil weights that can be used. I was wondering what others are using? I bought pennzoil 10W40.

I mowed all day and after I cleaned it up the HST dash light came on. What does this mean? I haven't had the BX2200 very long. I will be ordering manuals next week. I checked the fluid level and it was on the bottom mark so its just a tad low. Can someone tell me what the dash light means?

I am thinking about ditching my MMM in favor of a FM. I have many hills and inclines that would be much easier to back up to with the FM than to get with the MMM. I do have some turns to make, but with the MMM, I practically need a push mower to get to waters edge to mow. Additionally, I cannot...

Does anyone know the the head bolt torque specs and sequence? BX2200 with the D905 3 cyl diesel. Much appreciated in advance. Bill.

My Kubota BX2200 suddenly started acting up. When I turn the key, I hear the usual clicking. I turn the key to the start position, the engine rolls over and fires. But, when I release the key to the run position, the engine dies. If I hold the key in the start position, the engine...

2 questions/concerns. BX2200, 445 hours, 60"MMM, no loader. Recently acquired this machine two weeks ago. Change air filter and engine oil filter prior to use. So far I have only about two hours seat time using the machine. It appears the previous owner neglected the maintenance and I'm...

Hi All, Rear hydraulics on a Kubota BX2200 Having read threads until I am red eyed could anyone pass judgement/comment on what I have managed to come up with for adding rear hydraulics for the following: 1 A McConnell Swing Trim (On board Spools) 2 A Hydraulic Tipping Box (No spool) I think I...

I'm really frustrated by the ROPS getting n the way when I mow near smal trees etc. I've been debating just removing it. I had not in the past because I had a FEL, but the FEL goes to a new owner tomorrow. I've been mowing the same yard for 12 years and there's just now way the BX is going...

Note I am not griping, I expected some problems with the tractor when I purchased it. I have been dreading removing the 60 inch deck on the somewhat abused new to me BX2200 I purchased last fall. Vision of rusted in this and that and the dreadful possibility of a busted hydrostatic cooling...

Any thoughts or advice greatly appreciated. A few immediate thoughts come to mond. 1. Will I need to drain all of the UDT fluid? 2. Do I need to purchase plugs for where the hydro lines leave and go to the loader quick connects? Thanks in advance for the help. The buyer and I are attacking...

Hello all. I'm searching for the right tool to maintain my 800 foot long steep driveway that gets washed out when it rains. I've asked numerous local tractor users what to buy for my Kubota and come to the conclusion that I should get a back blade. Looking at the variety of scraper blades I like...

I posted the other day of a potential move to a neighborhood where all I'd ever need to do is mow. Snowblowing is done by a dedicated walk behind that I have. I was considering getting a zero turn and selling off the BX, but now I'm thinking of keeping the BX, 60" deck and rear PTO driven...

Hi all, I may be getting a smaller place in a nice little neighborhood and I am considering selling my BX2200 and getting a smaller grass-mower-only kind of machine. A few questions come to mind. What's the right size Kubota (or is there a better fit/solution/brand) mower for about .7 acres...

Noticed today while mowing yard tractor acted like it was loosing power while going forward and mowing. If I stopped forward movement and disengaged mower pto motor sounded fine did not notice this issue if moving in reverse. This seems like the brakes are dragging while traveling forward. any...

Have a BX2200 that steering keeps going out on. dealer suggested putting "Shepherds" into the hydo system. Now it is really out. What to do? Milkyway

I heard an unpleasant snapping noise while moving my loader valve recently. Now it will stick a bit while being pulled down. Has anyone had experience rebuilding these valves? Is there a kit available? It's still quite useable, but I'm not comfortable ignoring it. Thanks for any input

My BX2200 has started leaking at the shaft seal under the steering wheel. I priced up a new valve and the dealer wants over $700 for a new one. They offer no rebuild kits. Has anyone had any success rebuilding one of these? Is there a source for the seal(s)? Thanks!

Hey all, Subject line is wrong... Left blade spins freely and does not cut. I think I got into too deep of grass and messed up my left cutting blade... While I was cutting, I started having a loud rumble & vibration from the deck...I turned everything off and checked the blades. While the...

I took the loader off my 'new to me" 900hr BX2200 for the first time today. Mine is the old type where the loader valve body stays with the loader. As soon as I restarted the tractor I noticed oil slowly running out the nearest (right most) connector. I dug out the loader parts books...
