BT650AR Serial Number 5XXXX. Does anyone have a copy of the service bulletin or know the part number of the kit to change from auto return to regular hydraulics?

Thanks in advance,

B8025 rings a bell, that's the whole goods number. There is another one depending on serial number. Kubota dealer should be able to tell which one when they go to order it.

Thanks. That's more help than I got at the Kubota dealer. Do you know what is needed in the way of parts?

It's really a good kit. It should come with a new valve section to replace the section with the solenoids, as well as the right size hoses, plugs, linkage, and swing stop brackets and bumpers. The brackets need to be welded on and the bumpers installed being that the old set up relied on the computer to stop the swing before it contacted the backhoe frame. The instructions can be a little fuzzy, but all in all it's not too bad of a job to switch everything over. If I remember right, depending on your serial number, it may come with a new swing tower assy. as well. It's definitely the way to go, when you start having problems with your auto-return. The cost of the parts, labor and hassle of getting the auto-return to work properly for what it does for you, far outweighs what it will cost to make it work like a regular backhoe.

Thanks for the information, mech. This is the third solenoid that the bottom's popped off of. It's time to switch. I don't use the autocentering anyway.
