new b3030hsdc

munchie · May 25, 2009

I finally got my new tractor. B3030HSDC with FEL and 60 in bucket with 3 hooks. I got a 60 in MMM and the front mount snow blower. I went with turfs and RimGuard in the rears. Cut grass twice and moved some washed out dirt but not much else yet besides a wax job. I do notice the power downgrade from my old David Brown with 46 horse, but I love the cab and controls.

Congratulations !! You are gonna love that tractor........ especially this winter !!! One thing I'll recommend is a chute deflector control for the blower (I went hydraulic). It'll allow you to put the snow exactly where you want it. There are times I wish I had a belly mower...... especially so I could have a collection system. Enjoy !!

That is one nice looking setup! I'm sure that you will have many happy, and productive hours using it. Keep us posted on how you like the turf tires for all around use. With the mower deck you made the right choice there.

So far I can say the unit works well. The cab and controls are top drawer. The machine is narrow and working on hills is a learning experience. I find it takes more revs than I thot to do loader work...but the dealer says up to 2000 rpm isn't any worry on a new machine. I like the grass cutter...mixed feelings about the snow season...lol

I have the same machine, I know you will love it. I went with the rear snow blower so I could leave the FEL on. The chute control is a must, mine is electric and you just plug it into the connector beside the windshield washer container.

Munchie, if you are mowing on hills, i recommend Kubota's rear wheel spacer kit. Three inches wider (total) doesn't sound like much, but it sure made a big difference in the seat-of-the-pants feel. I didn't think they were terribly expensive at around $160 / pr.(US).
