BX24?

/ BX24? #32  
A Kubota dealer near me just received a new BX 24 this past Wednesday. I saw the machine today. He did not have any pricing or brochures yet on the new BX's. He thought he would get this info in early January. I was able to compare the BX 24 with the BX 23 and also compare the new bh with the Woods bh that was mounted on a BX 2230. I was very impressed with the BX 24.

Does any dealer have the new lit yet?

I went and drove the one at lanford equipment. Weird, but it really seems smaller, especially the BH. My salesman was very candid about running the tubing inside the booms: Protected, and easy on the eyes, but more awkward to replace.

There is another safety benefit to having the tubing inside the booms - if any of them happen to spring a leak the hydraulic fluid is contained inside the boom. I have heard a number of stories of people getting hydraulic fluid shot under their skin from the high pressures - with the tubes inside the booms this would be less likely to happen.

Especially since the hoses and fittings aren't getting banged-up. I ain't saying how I know about this. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
