The B2650 count down has begun!

Thanks rkidd..........

Having two previous Kubota CUT and SCUT, it makes sense to me that the MMM should be able to be held up out of the way when using the FEL or the 3 point. The hardware to hold the MMM in the up position is present only on the left side as shown in my pic. The right side has no such hardware.....I had removed that little "rue ring cotter pin" thingy and put a generous size plain cotter pin in its place on that left side.

In practice, I usually remove the MMM when using the FEL or 3 point for any major tasks.

I guess the dealer mechanic did not install the hardware on the right side....just like he did not install the Bucket Level Indicator connection to the bucket ( see post #116 & 126. it also appears that there are some missing bolts in the FEL frame. Geeze, it looks like the dealer will have to come back AGAIN to fix it right.

Cheers,
Mike

PS...I too, would have to agree with S219 comments.

You are right. There should be one on each side to hold the arms up. When you put the mmm on, rotate the brackets back on the pin and secure with the clip so when you raise the mmm all the way up they dont hit and get bent. I also take the mmm off when doing loader work and use my ballast box, or when I use my 3pt for implements.

Them look really nice. I知 sure you would have some buyers if you made more. I know
I would be interested

Hey Dan. When I first posted pics of my toolbox on the other tractor site, I couldnt believe the response. I was not looking to make and sell them. I was just showing my project. I had so many people that wanted them, and being retired, decided to make some more. Spent the entire winter fabbing them up to keep up. It was a good way to spend the winter in the shop. I still have materials to make a few more. If you are interested, let me know.

I definitely am, let me know how much. If you don’t want to post it shoot me a private message.

Hey Dan. Sent you a PM.

Dealer delivered the tractor. Still waiting on the bigger tires. But with 10 of snow in the forecast he knew I wanted it.

Got the snow plow on. Still hasn稚 been painted but will have to go to work in primer.

Of course a few pictures

I got a triaxle load of foundation delivered today and got to use the B2650 to push it over my hill. Super awesome! I know Jeff says that you need a 50% weight increase to notice a "wow" difference in performance, but no... Comparing the BX25, Three B2650 is such an amazing upgrade that it's not even fair to try to compare.

Congrats on finally getting your tractor Dan. I am sure it must feel good. How does you third function seem to work?

 

[Dan33Klein]

3rd function works great. But not with the plow angle cylinder. I need a hydraulic flow restrictor BAD.
The angle cylinder is 1.5” bore and 6” stroke. When you bump the third function the plow moves so
Fast it throws the tractor around lol. Going to get a 3000 psi ball valve from work tomorrow to restrict the flow. Unless my local hydraulic shop has them available. Can’t wait to get my bigger tires and get them filled. I am going to put my rear weight on tomorrow. Can’t get any traction lol.

Hey Dan. Just wondering if you slept with your tractor last night!! Haha.
