You need a mechanic to address this but there is one type of leak where the engine oil can get into the coolant system and coolant not into the engine oil. I am not sure where it is. My guess and it is only a guess with the head gasket or the head itself.

Unless the radiator has hyd oil cooler built in do not think the Hyd oil is the source of the oil. I believe you will find the engine oil pressure to be higher than the pressure in the coolant system is so one way travel of the engine oil if a leak between the two.

[QUOTE=TAGUILFORD;196640] Good afternoon, I have the same issue with my TC30 seat. What are you referring to when you said, "The 2933 seat will fit." Thanks for your help in advance. [/QUOTE]

Not sure oneance is still around but this thread is from 2005.

Right sure that is the model number for the seat. Of course NH number and seat.

Remember accountants make money based upon tax accountant work and will lobby hard to prevent too simple tax code. Doing away with estate tax hurts the life insurance industry, estate planning attorneys and accountants. Will those three industries get a hold of congress men and women?

Busy spring, still cleaning up Hurricane Matthew. For a Cat 1 hurricane it did more damage to us than did Hugo at Cat 4. Hope to get that done over the summer.

In process of moving our about 40 acres of farm land from row crop to hay so had to get land ready for sprigging bermuda grass, only did 15 acres this year as total new crop for me. If all goes well this year probably will do rest next year. But that also requires major work to get a few acres ready.

My most urgent job is to pressure wash our house and other buildings due to warm wet winter.

Just stumbled across this thread and it was good to read. Saw some names that bring good memories and the thoughts of the Golden we had to put down a couple of years after the original post. Yet to reach out of another dog. Do miss having a dog around when outdoors working.<br>

Art power to the oto stops the moment you turn the pto off, but does not the weight of say rough cut mowers baldes then continue to spin stopping whennthe energy is used up and not doe to the pto shaft having like a brake on it?

I am right sure on my b2710 and m6800 those blades contiue to run for a little.

I do not have a pickup with aluminum bed but have older F250 with steel bed and I do haul with it. I will drop my receiver hitch in my bed which has spray on liner material in there and would never worry about a hole. Now that is steel grant you but even with the rocks in my bed I would be very upset if the small rocks or the 200 pound or so rocks were dropped to where they would do damage to an aluminum bed. If I were the least bit worried would be sure to have the bed sprayed or some other protection. Notice what they are dropping in those beds to do such damage.

Have soil sample done and run with that. Others wise you are mostly guessing. But for my dime do not put out all the fertilizer at one time but at least in two if not three or four applications. Helps prevent up and down in the lawn.

We have a few around here but not many. One problem here is our soil often will not let them drain. The packing that controls the water is in the ground correct?

I am also under the impression that the "N" is for narrow but have never even touched a N classed tractor. If it is a Narrow class tractor then it most likely narrow class in the lift specs. But even it not a narrow class tractor the size and type of tires can affect the between the tire clearance and then if they tires are pulled in all the way or not.

On my B2710 it has the sliding stabilizers and I do use pull pins on it and my lift arms and not the stabilizers are what hit the tires.

Does it have a range lever also and are you sure it is fully engaged? If is has more than one range try another and see about that.

WOW. Any injuries? Hope not.

Did you check the fluids or change them with this? I would have replaced filter and the engine and hyd oils. May be a waste and check coolant. Check all those look like should.

Was the tractor running when flipped? If yes what cut it off? Could it have damaged the transmission running with no oil to it with the flip?

But look for damaged linkage due to the flip. While working the lever to select range and the travel pedal be sure the movement travels all the way to the transmission and is moving the rod in the transmission.

I would check the linkage and see if you find some reason the linkage is not fully engaging like worn or stick in the way.

Think you have been given good advice but first thing is to verify the fluid level. The tractor has a dipstick or sight gauge most likely to verify the fluid level. DO NOT RUN TILL YOU DO THIS AND IF LOW BRING TO AT LEAST THE LOW Level. DO not over fill either.

Do not know your tractor but have no certain idea on what could be common there. Have you checked your hyd oil for the lift? It maybe your pto uses hyd oil pressure to engage it. If it uses a switch or simple lever to engage it probably does.

First welcome to TP.
The BX1800 has 18 hp and the B2601 should have 26 hp. That is 8 more hp but also almost a third more in percentage.

But HP is only a part of it, I read that the BX is spinning on you and not stalling so that is a traction issue. Now the unknown is if the BX had enough traction would it then have the HP to pull the loaded box blade and that would be my concern.

So some thoughts:
IS the BX four wheel drive? The B2601 is right? Four wheel drive may make all the traction difference you need, but may not.
The turf tires are not the best traction tires for such but to change them out most likely will require rims also.
How much of load must you give up to pull the box blade up the drive? Would it be better to make lighter trips and more or spend the money and make less trips?
Do you have clearance for chains?
Have you tried loading the rear wheels?
Have you checked your tires air pressure to see if you can lower the pressure to give it better footprint to pull?
Last thought is how aggressive is the angle of the box blade? Is it also trying to cut into the rocks even when loaded?

I meant to add this thought in first post but will very much with your post following mine. My first suggestion is to be sure the B2710 is the tractor you need. I bought ours mostly for mower use (rfm) and it is great for that and for rough cut or as most call them Bushog regardless the brand it is great with the HST is in trees as it easy to back into areas you need to. We use a 52" rough cut mower and a 72" inch rfm and it handles those fine. It is not a tractor for plowing, too low. It will do a lot, more than some think but before you spend $4,000 plus be sure it is tractor enough for your needs. You may find trading your tractor and the money you will put into the loader gets you into a little larger tractor with loader already on it.

As to dealers, sad. Depending on what you are asking they may feel they are wasting time with you since you did not buy the tractor there or what ever. I am not a big tractor owner but have had Case, Kubota and JD and the dealership means as much as the brand of machine does to me. Some will disagree with me on this but in this size tractor I think Kubota is the brand to beat. As far as I know they are rare as they build all their machines. Bigger machines where you hit the "true" JD or Case not sure Kubota is the brand there, no experience with their over 70 hp models.

Our Gator had issue with not wanting to idle and used Sea Foam with poor results. Had to have the carb removed and cleaned. No idea on the squealing.
