New to me BX 23

Everything Broken · Sep 19, 2013

Hi - have been reading this forum for several months now. Bought a new-to-me Kubota BX 23 this spring that is giving me the "opportunity" to learn all kinds of new stuff. I bought it to help with chores around the house (you know what I mean - to move firewood and rocks, dig holes, not for doing dishes or laundry). So far have found this site to be very informative, but I still have a lot to learn.

Thanks!

Thanks! As I mentioned, bought the BX 23 to help me with some chores around here. Unfortunately, things got turned around pretty quickly. I feel like I got bought, and I'm doing all the chores on this tractor. A ton of maintenance and repairs the previous owner blew off, hid, and stretched the truth about. Hope to have it back together soon.

G'day and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

If your rig has a FEL & bucket then it can carry your laundry out/back to the Hills Hoist for drying. Heck, fill the bucket up with soapy water and do your dishes... then dump the water on the garden! It's a three-fer 'cause your bucket will be sparkly (lemon fresh) clean to boot!!!

Enjoy & be creative.

True... if it weren't all in pieces.

That's not good to hear, tractors are more fun to drive than wrench on. The BX is a real durable machine given it's size. My father is not very easy on his and it has been all but bullet proof.
