BX2660 Zerks locations

[corey9212]

Hello I am just doing some maintenance on my BX2660 before the snow comes and am wandering if any other owners knows where all the grease zerks are located on this tractor. The manual only says and shows the one for the HST pedals but to me it seems weird for a tractor to have only one fitting. So if someone knows if there are more and where they all are that would be appreciated.

On a BX, that is the only one.

The loader will have a bunch, though.

Ditto.

Pre-Winter service should include new oil/filter if you are close. Hate doing it in zero weather.

Grease 3 pt fish eyes.
Grease PTO stubs.
Grease threads on top link.
Fill tires with air.
Check air filter.
Check radiator screen for debris.
Check all fluid levels. Especially front axle.
Battery good?
Check supply of diesel treatment.
Have fuel filters on shelf.
Check all headlights, warn flasher bulbs.
Check functionality of block heater.

Go make coffee and put your feet up.

Wish you lived closer. We could get together and divide the workload on our BX's.

You take everything in the first paragraph, and I'll get everything in the second

That's a great list, the manual says how to prepair for winter storage but not for winter use.

Yeah there is a lot on the loader for sure. It's good to know that there is just the one on the tractor.

Actually, I will be down in your neighborhood for a week at the end of the month. Casey County. Do you brew good coffee or the end cap display crud for like a buck and a half for a 20lb can?

Early in the mornings, I brew whatever coffee I can get my hands on! That being said, I can't claim to be much of a coffee connoisseur. I'm open to recommendations...

Casey County is not very far at all from where I grew up. Being familiar with the area, the first question that comes to mind is "Why does anyone not from the area go there?". Nice country and all, but not a lot of tourist spots. Family connection would be my guess.

I live a bit NW of there now. If you're coming down I-65, we're less than an hour South of Louisville - home of John Conti Coffee, BTW. Not one of my personal favorites, though.

You must be over toward Bardstown or E-town. Great area.
