B6000 snow blower

What you say is true, mine has the PTO shield. There are a number of tractors Kubota made for which they don't offer ROPS. I can get all parts easily at Kubota Dealer.

I have the three point finish mower, I have the tiller, I have a york rake, I have the loader and I have a frame mount backhoe (not the B-609 original equipment version).

Great little tractor, size is perfect for me and with the hoe, I have tons of traction, even though mine is the E 2 wheel drive.

dont suppose you know where you can get the PTO converter?

A friend of mine ordered the ROPS for his B6000. It came in and I picked it up for him yesterday. the ROPs supplied by Kubota is manufactured by Femco (www.femcomfg.com), but it does not have any instructions at all. It looks like it should bolt to a PTO shaft cover, but his tractor has no PTO shaft cover. Does anyone have a picture of the PTO shaft cover? It looks like we are going to end up making an adapter from angle steel to bolt his ROPS to his tractor where the PTO cover should have been.

Overall, the ROPS looks very nice, but it has no instruction sheet, and Femco's website is only slightly more handy than useless.

Hi There,
I'll try to shoot a picture within the next day or so, I'll have to pull her out of the garage.

I spoke to Kubota, not sure why the website sais what it does, but as you all know you are correct, $148 promotional price for ROPS, I'll definately buy.

I run into the converters once in a while, primarily in UK, however, for what ever reason their B6000's have 18 spline PTO rather than the 31/32 10 spline.

Would love to get my hands on a PTO reverser.

Snow Blower Model is B638A.

Thanks all,
Joel
