Kubota B2910 Owners

[MikeD]

Got mine two months ago. Just turned 50 hours. Have moved earth-dug stumps-ripped bushes out of the ground-built stone walls and mowed a bit. No problems. Great machine for its size. Just finished the 50 hour service. I would recommend anyone who can do an oil change in a car do the service themselves.

I bought mine new in July of 01. I now have about 490 hours on it. I have noticed that when I have a heavy load in the FEL, that I experience some stiffness in the steering that only lasts for a few seconds. In the past I have had a little air in the system, but that was quickly bled out by turning the steering wheel to both extremes and holding it there for a few seconds. That is the Kubota recommended way to bleed the hydraulics. I haven't had any real problems with it other than the 72" mid mount mower pin up design, and the 3PH accessory hook ups. I solved the 3PH hook ups with a concrete floor in the barn and dollies under all my equipment.

I just recently solved the MMM pin up lousy design with gate latches on each side. So far it works like a champ. I used to cuss, sweat, strain, grunt, rant and rave like a mad man every time I had to pin up the mower deck, now I can do it in a few seconds, with no pain at all. I'm just mad at myself for not thinking of it 2 years ago.

Overall I am extremely pleased with my 2910. It has done almost everything I have asked of it, and the few times it hasn't, <font color="blue"> I shouldn't have asked </font> . /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

BubbaJr,

While I will never own a MMM for my B2910, I am sure there are a few 2910 owners that would love to see a picture of how you use gate latches to pin up you MMM. Including me! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

The reason I won't ever own a MMM for my b2910 is I decided to order a MMM with a bx2200 attached to it, to keep my B2910 company...should take delivery this week.

If you have a digital camera maybe you could post a picture or two for us.

Hi Bill,
I fully intended to do that when I made the modifications, but once I got to working, I couldn't make myself stop long enough to go to the house and get my camera. That and I wanted to make sure that it worked without any problems before I went and bragged about it to anyone. I have another project that will take a few days to complete, and once I get that done, I'll post the remedy w/pictures and part numbers.

I have one. Bought it three years ago and have 180 hours on it. Used it yesterday for about six straight hours, box scraping gravel driveway, back blade scraping and then using a rock rake to level things out. Now I got a muddy mess (rained last night) but that is not the tractor's fault. Can't believe how much help the tractor has been over the three years. Best investment I have made for our place.

Have had one for about 20 months now and love it. Only have 60+ hours on it but I've done more in those 60 hours than I could have in 600 without the tractor.

Great tractor. Only thing I don't like is the 3pt hitch swing arm retainer pins. They are small, and have a clip pin that has to go through them . . . kind of a pain. I like the retainer pin style on the TC40D, which you just push in and pull out and a ball-detent keeps it in place.

Otherwise, I wouldn't change anything.

I've had mine for about two months now. Sold a L2650 and bought the B2910. Still trying to decide if I made a mistake. Thought I needed one lighter and smaller.I have not used it enough to make my mind up.I like it more the more I use it but I miss the L. It seemed to have a lot more grunt(power)Even though it had one less horsepower. I know the weight had a lot to do with this but I beginning to think it being a gear drive helped also.

Bought ours in March 02'. Now has about 207 hours. No problems whatsoever, and quite the workhorse. Do all our own service and it is easy.

I am probably the newest B2910 owner here. It was delivered last night. I managed to get 3 hours on it. It was delivered with the FEL and BH. Next week they will deliver the MMM, 50" RC tiller and box scraper. Sometime in August or September, I'll have the Sim's cab.
OH HAPPY DAY

Hey Guys
Out of all the B-2910 owners, can you guys tell me who has serial numbers 53736 and 53738. Mine is 53737. Knowing who has these serial numbers, we can keep a close tab on them to see if they are going to develop any of the problems or symptoms that my B-2910 is having.Doing this would be great help.
