My b3200 new prosthesis

[B3200]

Its a 16" bucket, still looks a little small to me, but works well,
I'm not all that happy with the hydrolic setup for the plow, I expected a small toggle switch like a plow truck, if I want to take the fel off I have to remove all the lines out from under the tractor, and I can't use the hydrolics for the plow with the bh attached. Plus I wasn't expecting the large hydrolic control on the ROPS.
To answer jambx's question, yes it gets in the way of the seat when I turn it in one direction but not the other.
If any body that needs pics of any part of the b3200 let me know.
PS, I'm very happy with the b3200 and the bh76.

I think you'll be happy with the 12". That's what I have for digging in decomposed granite.

Thanks Bandit67.. I've viewed the pictures of you going at your hillside. Your granite looks a lot harder than ours down here. Some of the vanes are hard but most of it just sluffs off over time. Especially with the freeze and thaw of the winter, it just pushes large chunks off.

Two years ago I ringed some planters I have with the granite all pieces about the size of a football and since then, with the rains and winters its gone through, it has just about disintegrated to what looks like little clumps of clay laying on the ground.

It's called decomposed granite (at all the stone yards) but it reminds one of just rock hard clay. If you use the 3/4 or 1 inch size for landscaping your yard and then walk on it it feels like walking on carpet.. very strange stuff.

That is one sweet machine!

Best of luck with it..

B3200,
Congratulations on your new machine.

I have a power angle Curtis blade on my B3030. I have the Kubota quick attach which allows me to switch between the bucket and plow in only a few minutes. I connected the power angle to the rear remote. The hoses are tywraped in place with quick disconnets by the cross tube brace of the loader in the front. When I need the rear remote I leave the hoses in place and just disconnect the couplings at the rear remote. I don't know much about the B3200 but you may be able to do something similar. The backhoe is always operational.

Thanks for the input, the hydrolic supply for the bh is the same for the plow, so I have to unhook one to use the other. I assumed that I couldn't change the lines with the bh attached but I may be wrong, I will give it a try.
also, since I plan on removing the fel in the summer when I start mowing I will have to remove the full lengh line, I can do it but there seems to me there should be a simpler way, like a small electric pump attached to the plow like on a pickup.
