We got our 7510 a few weeks ago w/rigid ROPS (B7510HSD-R)because they had none on the lot with foldable. We paid for foldable and they said they would swap-out when available, no big deal. In the mean time I had heard from a couple 'reputable' dealer that the entire ROPS assy is to be installed per foldable or rigid. The serial numbers should dictate this.

After having it 3 days they have returned my tractor with the foldable ROPS on it. Same serial number on base unit of ROPS, just stuck a foldable section on top of it I guess.

Frankly I don't see this as an issue but could liability issues come into play down the road?

The part number on base (lower) part of ROPS is SFB24-A.

There have been a ton of issue with these guys and now that this ROPS issue is over I can sever my ties with them and inform Kubota accordingly. It's a great product. I hate to see it in the hands of such boneheads.

I appreciate your input.
