kubota g5200

New member…I just joined. I have a question that could have been posed in either the projects or Kubota. I chose Kubota. I am modifying my John Deere 318 to receive the D600 Diesel engine. On the donor tractor, the Kubota G5200, the engine was placed in backwards; I.e. the water pump was closest...

G5200H help request! 1. Hard to start replaced battery, alternator charging. 2. slight coolant overflow, 3. slight odd smell exhaust on start up. 4. Water pump had slight leak. 5. Replaced water pump, thermostat, 6. Replaced radiator cap. 7. Wondered if starter was having problems but I...

Does anyone have pictures of an unmodified G4200, G5200, or G6200 front and rear end? I recently purchased a G5200 and the prior owner has modified (welded) a different receiver to both the front and rear frame rails. My desire is to return it to stock original and I need to have a reference as...

Hello, New to the forum. Just bought a Kubota G5200. I'm looking for help decoding the frame and engine serial numbers. The number on the frame is: G5200 21029 The number on the engine is: 16796 Really just curious about the model year but any other information would be nice.

SO I picked up a New Holland 708D debris blower for a very fair price. It is exactly the same as the F2535D debris blower for F-Series mowers. It has the quick attach mount and was already converted to electric nozzle rotation, and I have the quick mount front hitch for my G5200 which I run a...

I have a kubota g5200 garden tractor that I would like to get a deck back under. Im good at fabricating. I love this little tractor. I was wondering if anyone has a kubota mid pto 60 inch deck on there tractor and could help me out if you would please. I was wondering the rotation of the pto...

So I own a G4200 (my parts mower, as the engine exploded one day), and a G5200, my current mowing machine. The other day, while mowing, I backed up against a porch swing hanging from a tree, and it caught under the rear fender when I started moving forward, which, since I was going downhill...

Hey all. Been looking for a replacement for my JD X320 ( it’s wimpy and can’t handle hills ) and I came across a G5200 for sale. It looks to be in reasonable shape, it looks whole. The current owner has done a bunch of maintenance stuff over the past year. Here’s the list. New water pump, fan...

I am trying to repair an old G5200 Kubota Diesel with a fan/Alternator belt that is beyond its useful life. The problem is it looks like the lower (motor) pulley also drives the shaft to the hydrostatic transmission, so the belt is captured. Something has to come off, but what? Anybody have...

I've noticed the temperature gage has been steadily finding a higher max operating temperature over the past 2 years. Last week it overheated while The Plant Manager was cutting the not-too-long lawn on a not-too-hot day, so I decided to see what was causing the problem. After some testing...

Picked this one up for a good price off Craigslist. Yes I also got a mower deck, but its off the machine to go to the welder for some patching. I wanted the tractor for gardening work, plow days and shows. You do not see many of these restored and taken to shows, yet they are becoming an...

Looking for the bull emblem that goes between the headlights on the older G series garden tractors. Thanks Mike

I think it might be the belt ... I've got to modify those covers so I can see & get the clippings out of the belt drive path everytime we use it. It's tempting to just take them off, but it needs to have some protection on it, as The Plant Manager is the primary user. Anybody have experience...

Since these are rare to find, gonna start looking now. Hunting for the rear 3pt hitch assembly for the G5200 Kubota garden tractor, also fit the other older G series like 3200, 4200 and 6200. Even pieces of an incomplete hitch would be of interest as it might be enough to fabricate the rest...

Years ago I got one and intended to put it on a machine I was restoring. Thinking about selling it and a good shape RC44 deck. May also part out what I have. Is there still a strong interest in these mowers? 5 or so years ago it seemed pretty strong but I have not been active lately.

If you have any questions or may need something in general call me. I can ship anywhere. 8506746363

Does anyone know how to undo the nut on the pulleys? I'm finding it hard to hold the pulley and try and break the nut free? Any thing I'm missing here? Thanks for any help.

Hi just a question in regards to the above mowers, which of these mowers is the better one to go for? I know the T1600 is a 2 cylinder and the G5200 is a 3 cylinder, which has the better HST or are they the same? Looking for any advice thanks. Cheers Daniel

It's complete, and technically was running on 2 of 3 cylinders with the 3rd having such blowby as to be useless. Has deck, with one pulley rusted. Was mowing with it last summer until the pulley rusted out. Erik -near Abilene, TX

Hi all, had grand plans to rehab this old G5200 diesel riding mower but realize it just isn't going to happen. My interest has waned and I'm wondering what you all think is the best way to get rid of it would be. Should I try to part it out or try to sell it as a parts machine on Craigslist...

I'm restoring the RC44-G deck on my G5200. I think the middle spindle got loose and caused the shaft to wobble which killed the keyway on the shaft and the pulley. Gearbox seems OK. Got new parts. While apart, I am changing all the spindle bearings. But then I just decoded to paint it and...

The belt I removed from the mower deck (left) vs the correct belt (right): Mower deck with wrong (too narrow belt) notice how the belt touches itself near the idler: ... and with the correct belt - much more clearance near the idler: Both belts were the same length, but the large one...

I noted in my first post that the transmission fan was pretty much gone. Well, the new one came in yesterday, so that was this morning's project. The first step was to remove the fiberglass cover which meant removal of the seat, the transmission pedal, and the 6 bolts holding it down (2 were...

Having a little issue with my Kubota diesel G5200. The starter motor slips most of the time when I try to start it. Getting worse. By that I mean that I hear the starter motor spinning, but the engine isn't turning over. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. When it works, it works...

I have a Kubota G5200 with the d600 engine. Replace some orings in the fuel pump to solve a bad diesel fuel leak. I did resolve the leak but now I can't get it running normally. I have never had to bleed the fuel system on a diesel before and it shows. Lots of black smoke come out when...

Good morning to all, especially other G5200 owners. I'm going to need your help. I have no manuals for the unit. It has 1376 hours showing on the meter. Engine runs/sounds excellent; drives forward and backward just fine, and seems in generally good condition. Everything works but the horn. I'm...

While driving our new-to-us G5200 around our field a few weeks ago there began a terrible screeching noise and the tractor stopped dead. Fearing the worst (an HST problem) I shut her down and towed her back to the garage, making sure to keep the rear wheels off the ground. After some...

Hello, Just signed up and looking for help on a G5200. I am a long time owner of this G5200 (bought it new in 1985) and I want to keep it going!

Has anyone done this before? I have a used one coming and will be attempting to replace my damaged Hydro transmission in my 1985 G5200HST. I'm looking for some document that would help me or a youtube video. Thanks

I picked up a running but tired G5200H recently. Wednesday I had the good fortune of meeting two of the three families that have owned it from new. Seems it started working in Virginia many years ago. Primary issue for these two has been wiring and having to jump start the mower on a regular...

I was thinking real hard about my kubota g5200. It doesn't have a deck I bought it that way so I dont even have the gearbox for the deck. I have an old case mower deck thats pretty hefty im thinking of modifying it to fit my old g5200. Its pretty dead on when it comes to shape and size. Its a...

Was doing some maintenance on my 5200 (which I love) and found that one of the twin PTO engagement belts on the front is cut. These are the two V belts that make the mower go when you push the lever to engage the mower. The dealer said that that were $30 EACH. :shocked: Is there anything...

Finally got started tearing apart and making 1 good Kubota G5200H Take a look at the dashboard I completed tonight.

Found a Kubota G5200 diesel riding mower for $1500. 48" deck. Can't see anything wrong with it. Doesn't seem to leak anything. Runs well. Plenty of power. Seems to have been maintained reasonably well. About 750 hours on it. Steering a little loose, but not much. But my problem is...

I am taking a loss no matter how you look at this. This spring I bought a G5200 with 1300 hrs on Craigslist with plow and wheel weighs and chains for 1400 bucks. I mowed my acre about 5 times and the trans went out. Now its sitting in he service bay, they want atleast $2500 to get her going...

Hello all! I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. A month ago I bought a G5200 off Craigslist from the original owner who had no major issues since new. 1300 hrs. Changed the oil and filter, air filter and both fuel filters before I put into service mowing my acre. Did the lawn...

Does anyone know of a site that has serial numbers listed so I can find out what year my Kubota G5200H was built in? I have looked around, but seem to be sent in circles. I found one that had motor numbers on it, but my motor serial numbers came off and were lost long ago. Best I can tell, my...

The guide wheels and shafts on the RC48-G20 on my G1800 are completely shot, do to previous owner(s) lack of greasing them. One of the rubber wheels is chewed up too, since the pin holding it on came out while I was backing up and it ended up under the deck while the blades where spinning...

I was given a Kubota G5200H garden tractor by a friend who manages a ranch. The story is that it was stored overwinter after running just fine through the fall and this spring it started up, ran a minute or so, then died. Because it was old and in need of refurbishment, the ranch owner...

I have a Kubota G5200 HST, and im wanting to know is it possible to add some type of Aux Hydraulic control so I could use a Hydraulic attachment? If so were would I start at? I have a small loader that im wanting to put on this mower as well. Thanks for the help!!

Hello to all, I hope someone can help me with my Kubota. I have a 1990 G5200 with 480hrs on it. It started running hot back in the summer. Since then I have replaced the Waterpump, Thermostat, Radiator, Radiator cap, Radiator Hoses, Head Gasket and Head checked for cracks etc. We did pressure...

Kubota G5200. The tractor will crank and run briefly and then will kill. I used it to cut several acres and it finished the job, and then started to act up. I'm thinking it is a fuel problem but I'm not sure. Any suggestions.

After numerous attempts to fix this im at my wits end... Got a g5200h, 1200 hours on it, 3 cylinder diesel. The mower runs great and fairly cool except when outside temps are over 90 degrees and humid. When its really hot outside and im running the mower deck the temp gauge slowly climbs to...

Anyone had any experience converting the stock generator system of a Kubota G5200? I would like to convert to a 40+ Amp alternator. Is their an inexpensive automotive alternator that will directly bolt into the existing mounting brackets? Will the existing pulley RPMs of the Kubota be...

I have a mid 80s Kabota G5200 that has very loose (sloppy) steering. I don't see any way to replace the steering gear at the bottom of the Steering wheel shaft short of removing the engine. If anyone can help steer me (no pun intended) to fix this problem easily I would appreciate it. Thanks

Good Morning to Everybody! I replaced my burned out starter switch with a new one & I thought that I got all the wires correctly connected (I did the one off...old & on to new thing) But when I turned the key....... NO red light! I can't find my manual so I'm stuck & I really don't want to...

Hi all, I am new to this forum although I have had my Kubota for close to 5 years. It is a great machine but the deck is driving me nuts to adjust. I know how to adjust the rear lift rods; however, I cannot figure out how to adjust the front rods to make the deck higher. It is about 4 inches...

Does a Kubota G5200 have a positive ground?

Hi everybody.......first post. Today I'm picking up a G5200 and a new Bercomac blower. Does anybody have this set-up? Unless I missed it, nothing showed up in my search. I never installed a snowblower before, in fact, I never owned a tractor before. Does that make me a virgin? :rolleyes: Do...

Hi All, I just purchased a second hand Kubota G5200 HST. I just gave it a really good clean, so I could see all the parts and check for problems. When I went to move it by pushing it with the engine off, I noticed a clicking sound that appeared to be coming from the transmission. Is this...

I recently purchased a G5200H for $450. I am pretty pleased with the tractor in general but the mower is giving me fits. There is more scalping going on there than at the Little Big Horn. :( :eek: I have tried leveling the 44 in mower using the manual and it is some better but it seems to have...

I do have some extra Kubota G Series parts. Deck parts. 321-452-3863

I have a G5200 with a 48" deck like the one in the picture below. The gear oil suddenly started leaking pretty bad. Its really hard to tell where its leaking from because it only seems to do it when its running. The gear oil leaks out and pools on top of the deck, but below the two sheet...

Was wondering if those of you who have relocated your battery from in front of the radiator could post pictures of your setup? Thinking about moving mine and want to get some ideas. Thanks in advance.

Can anybody tell me the specs, or correct size for the two belts down low front Kubota G5200H garden tractor which drive the rotary grass cutter blades?

How can I tell if the water is circlulating in the engine/radiator or if the thermostat is working. I am not sure if the temp gauge is working and it seems to be running hot. If you have any ideas I can try before I take to the repair shop. Thanks

have a g5200 with the 48 inch deck. does anybody know of a good place(cheap) to get a new deck or a good used one? i think my deck has shot craps. the holes in the deck are to large now and the grass packs in so bad its not even funny! i think it also might be some of my overheating problems...

Have been shopping for a different mowing platform to update my Simplicity. Was thinking of an older Yanmar or Kubota. My main critera was diesel power, 48" deck and 3pt hitch for using a blade. Blade would be used for light rock grading for driveway. I have found Kubota G5200 that meets 2...

I was given a G5200HST last week. The tractor had not been run in two years but had been stored in a garden shed. We got it started but it began to run rough and after 10 minutes, it died. We got it started again but only for a couple of minutes and it died again. I changed the fuel filter -...

A few weeks back my G5200H quit running. I pulled the injectors and it seems as though theirs no fuel. I checked the fuel bowl near the injectors and it seems to be low on fuel. I removed the wheel and disconnected the fuel pump (electric) and hooked it up direct to a 12v source. It doesn't...

I have had this mower for 10 yrs, and I have had rad check, new water pump, new thermo sensor, tightened belt, new cap, all done recently, and still boil over thru overflow tube, any suggestions. PS, belt has not been changed since I have had it, but looks good, but....

I bought a G5200 Kubota yesterday with a 48" deck and 543 hours on the meter. Overall it's in good shape and the motor runs smooth. The deck needs new blades and seems to run out rough so it might need spindle work. Picked it up for $1500.00, Think this was a good deal?

My yard mower's starting system appears broken. New solenoid didn't fix the problem. Had asimilar problem several years ago and in my memory (faulty at times) of that problem seem to recall that it was a problem with the transmission safety switch. Is this something that I can replace myself...

Hi all I have a Kubota G5200 ride on here in Australia and was wondering if you could assist me with some info. I have contaminated the fuel tank (under the seat) and need to remove it. To get it out I need to remove the fiberglass fenders/cover but in order to do that I need to get the...

Hi guys, I have just taken possesion of my new house and it came with a G5200 HST Diesel. Can anyone give me any specs on it? It has a mid mounted deck about 40 or so inches and a front PTO. Is it possible to put a 3pt on it? Thanks for any info.
