Kubota B3030 vs L3400

Replies 9 Post by charlesaf3

Hi Art,

I gave some thought to the BX24, and could easily be made to reconsider, but I thought it would be too small for the logging I wanted to do, and the PTO horsepower too small for the other various things I want to add on. If the B3030 is also going to be too small, I might as well get the BX24 for the same money and get the backhoe I'd love to have but have trouble justifying... Is the BX24 more stable on hills do you think?

Thanks,

Charles

Tractor has about 745 hours on it now. Notice blue smoke at low load and idle. When I am doing hard work, pto rpm exhaust is clear and sometimes black if I hit a load. Does that help? no leaks, I check it over pretty thorough. Thanks

Brand New BX2200, I can't shift the PTO selector lever out of the mid position. I've tried everything in neutral, idle low etc... any suggestions or similar problems that any of you have had? I don't want to break it. It seems to have alot of flex in it.

So, Peter, where do you get good replacement blades? I'm doing finishing work rather than brush hog cutting, but I do note that sharp blades make a big difference to the appearance of the cut. I'm pulling a 5' Brush Hog ATH600 which came used with blades so dull the cutting surface was curved. The dealer gave me a set of not-so-used replacement blades, and I first put just a semi-sharp edge on them thinking to avoid blade damage. That gave me uneven cutting, so I put a decent edge on before my last job and got much better results. However, after about 6-7 acres I'm back to an edge similar to my first sharpening effort. Is it common to need to sharpen so often? I plan to get an extra set of blades so I can switch off and have a set sharp. Are genuine Bush Hog blades likely to be better than third party stuff? I really don't know if the blades I have now are BH or not. Chuck

DA question:How sharp do you want the blades on a finishing mower? My BH ATH600 came with a set of extra used blades....good thing because the blades on the mower were curved from use. I touched up the edge on the extra blades before installing them, but I didn't put a keen edge on for fear of chipping if I hit anything. Turns out I don't have rocks, and the branches are only around the edges of the property, so maybe sharper blades would be a good idea? Chuck<br>

I bought a very used L-210 with a used Bush Hog ATH600 5' finishing mower last month. My 10+ acres is mostly level grass, and this rig seems to work OK. I did have to use the lowest speed when cutting some stuff that was higher than the front wheels, and I even had to re-cut some of that to really cut the knock-down, but for most of the grass I can run in fourth and get decent results. This mower weighs more than 500 lbs, but the hydraulics lifts it fine. It's fun going down the road at a whopping 11 mph with the mower hanging back there...reminds me of a carnival ride. Anyway, I've been reading some of the old posts and it sounds like I'm pushing the L-210 pretty hard. Any opinions? Also, there are a number of what I assume are mounting bolts on the right side and under the block/transmission. What kind of implements are/were available for this tractor that would use those? The only pto is in back, as are the hydraulics. So far the mower and a carry-all are all I have, but I will be getting some kind of blade for driveway and snow work. Then a plow or tiller before next growing season. I know I can get an appropriate blade and plow, but is there a tiller that will work?Chuck<br>

Randy,i have a 790 with a 261 rear mount grooming mower.I had a four wheel gauge kit installed on it,and it cuts great!It did take some getting used to,but i like how quick i can "drop" the mower and move on to something else.That may be something to consider.Good luck!
