Nice. Hope you enjoy it. Good weekend (at least on the East Coast) for some seat time.

By the way, how do those pallet forks attach to the bucket ? Never saw any like that before...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Don't forget, bucket close to ground and 4wd always going down steep hills and wet grass on downhill slope is a one time experience. Go to it and be careful.:thumbsup:

 

[Kayakin2]

Thanks all! The pallet forks fit over the bucket edge and a vise type screw clamp tightens on the bucket. I added the wood to protect the bucket and make up the gap as they will fit on bigger buckets! (just incase I trade up! :thumbsup Now to assemble the 3PH and try removing the BH!
Anything I should know? Do you want me to bore you with pics?
Nice warm weather! I will go work (play) now!

Kayakin,

Congratulations on your new tractor and there is no such thing as too many pictures to a group of tractor enthusiasts.

Keep your manual handy for when you can't work; assuming you have already read it, and get out and enjoy it; nothing like a new tractor.

Just in time, as spring is starting to explode for those of us in the nosebleed latitudes...now get to work! Congrats, it's a great machine. I've been nothing but happy with mine. Man, did you get fries with that burger...every attachment known to man.:licking:

Congratulations and look at the number of implements you have got, I am going to wait to hear from you about the pallet forks you got. I want to sell my forklift and add pallet forks for my Bx1860, for what I do around my garage and house, that should be plentyfull. Please add your experience and congratulations once again. These orange ones are an additcion

Thanks Everyone! Sneaking up on 10 hours & grease time. [JT????]
The pallet forks were used by the dealer to unload my attachments and today I moved wood fencing [2x6x10] six at a time. So far they work great!
My intended use is to move a few pellet bags, lumber, bricks, flagstones and other landscaping items. They put weight a long way in front of the FEL pivot point so you have to keep the weight down and counter balance the rear, luckily the BH helps and extending it behind helps more.
Suggest you buy the lightest & shortest ones to do your work! My tires are loaded and I keep the rear end down. :laughing:
FEH & BH testing is over so 3PH & attachments are next. My wife's iPad arrived today so I can now check the forum posts on the tractor :thumbsup: if she ever lets me borrow it.

Thanks for the reply, do you have model # for your pallet forks, I went to BXpanded and so nothing looks like your pallet forks, and if you dont mind how much did they cost you.

Rgds.,

Thanks for the reminder, I need to grease mine. Looks like you are testing it's features and now becoming a provider of information. Good luck on your rear explorations.:thumbsup:

Thanks for the info, I will keep that model info, any sorry I though your tractor is new, was it not greased up why you have to grease more. Mine had grease everywhere. Just asking!!

BX25 was new!
Every 10 Hours the FEH & BH should be greased per the Kubota Operator Manual! I am one who reads every manual cover to cover!
Oh well! The tractor maintenance pages do not cover this only the FEH and BH section and the decals on the tractor. At 15 hours I am half way to the next greasing!

As I said, you will love that BX..Moved 24 ton of limestone and 35 heaping one ton dump truck load of dirt over the last two days...Love this thing!!!
