B3030 Floorboard Vibration

Don't have one, but I think the "holsters" fit the small diameter handles, and not the body of the pin, so perhaps that is why you didn't notice them quickly. Think small diameter when you are looking.......

Actually they hold the big diameter... the small diameter cross pin is what keeps them from falling through. Not sure how you could miss them, they're just to the top inside of the boom arm, closest end to the tractor. I'll take a pic if it will help

Thanks DN - I actually found them on my own last night (now that I knew I should be looking for them).

To answer Haz's original question, no I didn't get that from the manual Just out of curiosity I dug my manual out, and all it says under REMOVING THE LOADER is:

9. Remove the mounting pins from the loader main frame and hold them on boom.​

No illustration, questionable grammar. Indeed, they could've been a little more specific. I like that they're within easy reach w/o getting off the tractor.

Is the 4 cyl more shaky than the three?? I just got a quote for a 3030 which was only 1000 more than the 2630. It seemed to make no sense to me until I read this thread. And if anyone had the old 2710 and 2910 could you comment if they also vibrated?? In trying out tractors I dont remember them being any more vibration thank my 2410.

I have a 2001 B2910 with about 950 hours on it, and I can confirm that there is a little vibration, but it's only noticeable if you are sitting still and concentrating on the vibration. Otherwise if you're doing something that requires your attention, It's not noticeable. Like others have said, the vibration is more pronounced at certain RPM's. I've used mine for up to 10 hours straight, and I've never had any part of my body go numb except my bum (from extended sitting, not vibration).

If I want to get a job done, I can always rely on my Kubota to outwork me every time. If I want to be comfortable, I'll go sit in my recliner with a beer in one hand and the remote in the other.

Spoke to a couple of dealers and they said the same.. Both with the 2710/2910 and the 7800...
