Kubota b1750 manual transmission

matoyan · Jan 8, 2022

I'm looking at buying a 1750 with a loader that has a transmission that keeps slipping out of gear. It's not a HST. Anyone have any ideas why it would pop out of gear? They are selling it as a "project" tractor and the asking price is $4500. Is there anything I should be looking at when I go to look at it tomorrow? Any help would be appreciated.

I bought a B2150 last year for $4500, an HST with no functional problems and a midmount mower. Four or five years ago I bought a B2150 stick which lacked a mower for $4800 I think it was. All good. No problems. Potentially the slipping out of gear on the 1750 can be repaired externally without tearing down the tractor but I do not know them well enough to say that. I had exactly that issue with a MF2660 (coming out of 2nd gear very frequently) and the dealer repaired that without tear down. Some small piece inside the trans was broken but could be replaced.
I'd have a talk with a very experience Kubota mechanic and get some idea of how big a problem that is.

How many hours? If the trans can be fixed for a few hundred $ and the tractor is not high hours the price is probably reasonable since it has a loader. Everything else seem to work OK ?

It has 903 hours on it. I haven't looked at it yet, but I was told it everything else works fine with newer tires on it. Its a none driver right now. How much did the dealer charge for the MF2660?

I bought the tractor and now I need to find the service manual. Anyone have access to the service manual for the b1750? I downloaded the WSM, parts and Operators manual but they don't tell me how to service the machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Never mind I found it. it was at the end of WSM.

I deleted last post by mistake. Anyway, does anyone have a detailed diagram on how to put together the top case cover with the forks, levers, etc. I have the WSM, parts catalog, and owners manual but none of them show how the parts on the case cover go together. The last owner took it apart because they couldn’t figure out why it was slipping out of gear but never put the parts in bags and labeled them. So it’s a box full of parts. (See photos). Any help would be appreciated.
