Rear Finish Mower PTO Safety Caps

[OzWaz]

Could somebody please help with some advice regarding the removal of the PTO safety cap on a Kubota B1750.

I致e just bought a second hand B1750 and have downloaded and read the manual thoroughly while it does remind you to put the cap back on after using the PTO there are no instructions on how you actually remove it.

I have tried to work it out but it痴 not intuitive as to how it comes off.

Any assistance would be appreciated

Thanks

On my BX2200 the cap clips on. You squeeze the top and bottom to release the tabs.

Thank for the response.

I cannot see any Tabs other devices

Attached is an image showing the view I get from the rear

That looks home made. Try pulling straight back.

it apparently has never been off as the machine was used with a deck mower underneath and it had plastic welded itself onto the housing . Just a little tap with a rubber mallet and a twist with multi and it came off no trouble - Thanks

alls good

BUT now I have a bigger which you may be able to help with if you don't mind. I owned a B6000 which died. However the PTO spine on the B1750 does not match any of my current implements. The B6000 had a 26mm shaft with about 20 micro robs the B1750 is larger and has only 6. is there any adapter that I can get so I can keep my existing implements?

Glad the cap came off ok.
As to adapters for the PTO I do not know of any adapters. In my case I have a 40yr old Japanese roto-tiller with the same problem. I had the end of the PTO shaft hub cut off just forward of the U-joint and a six spline hub welded on.
This has worked well on a 5' tiller.

Check with Tractor Supply (or Kubota dealer) for a PTO adapter.

Something like this may be what you need. Check with a local dealer or ag supply place.

Yes that is excellent solution and will solve the problem however I need to go the other way i.e. 6 to 18 (my model had 18 not 21) The site is not useful for Australian customers as it does not have a 'contact' facility and I need USA zip code to find a retailer to ask, but thanks for the lead I am on the right path now
