Some things to consider:
1)If you want a new Kubota I have some dealers names in California who will quote you prices a couple thousand less than the prices in Reno. The 2410 is a great tractor and you can’t go wrong with it. The 2410 and the 4210 are similar in horsepower only. The 4210 is quite a bit bigger and almost double the weight of the 2410.
2)Consider getting a rear mounted snow blower. That way you can leave the front-end loader attached and you can use it to scoop up and move the berms back when they get too high. You can save about a thousand bucks on a new rear mounted blower over a new front mounted blower. Yes you have to drive backward, but you will soon find that is no big deal.
3)If I could show you a slightly used tractor with a loader in the same weight and horsepower range as the 2410 and a slightly used rear-mounted blower for about $14K, total price would you be interested?
The right tires would be those that do not have deep lugs that the chains can slip behind and therefore not come in contact with the road. I think a turf or industrial tire would serve you better and will work well with chains. If you tap on my name to the left of this you can connect with my e-mail address if you have any questions or interest.

My Brother clued me in on this:
If you want a quick cleaning/wax job on your toys.
Use lemon pledge on your car,tractor,motorcycle etc.
It does a great job and really cleans bugs off.
Pilots use it to clean airplane windshields and i use it on my motorcycles for a great shine up.

Try it out.

It's probably just a tension adjustment needed. You could call the dealership and ask them. I bet they can tell you exactly what to tighten.

Can anyone tell me if you have problems pulling 5' brushhog
or even 6'. Right now I pull a 4' besides that is what came
with the tractor. It sure would cut down on mowing time. I
don't want to have hydraulic problems if I change to a bigger mower. Thanks

The magnetic heaters we have are only a 200 watt element, and I don't recall seeing any bigger than that. I would suspect that with the thermal losses you would have from trying to heat anything with a 200 watt heater in cold weather you wouldn't have much of a possibilty of over-heating anything.

The strangest 'block heater' I ever saw was at a golf course we working on, the maintenance shop was heated with a wood stove, called a Sedore Stove, look them up they're really neat, anyway back to the story. This particular stove can be equipped with a water jacket, which this one had. The strange part was since the shop wasn't heated full-time during the winter, only when the maintenance man was there working, he decided to fill the water system, a closed loop cicuit using an old water heater for storage and a couple of old radiators from the salvage yard to spread the heat to different rooms of the building, all this was controlled by manual valves and an electric pump wired through light switch. Since the tractor used for snow removal was kept in the same building, the old fella came up with the idea of putting 'Tee' fittings and valves on the hoses running to & from the cab heater, then put valves and lines back to the wood stove heated water circuit. When there was a snow storm coming he would hook up the lines and start a fire, his logic was even if the electricity failed the natural convection current would keep the engine, and more important to him, his cab warm indefinitely. He claimed a modest fire would keep the engine at nearly running temp.

Interesting thought process indeed !!

Actually TomG, after that big ice storm you guys had maybe you should think of doing this too.... LOL

Dwight, regarding the PTO issue. I'm a newbie on the BX2200
but regarding switching between mid and rear PTO: If when
trying to move between them it is difficult, put the selector on the PTO position that is workable, then use the other lever to actually "engage" the PTO i.e get the shaft turning, then dis-engage the PTO and then go back to the selector lever and it should easily move to the position you want. Had this happen on mine and the mechanic helped me out, something to do with hydraulic pressure, good luck...

Just surfing and saw the post on the B20 with no backhoe boom swing. Same thing happened to me, what I eventually found I had done was crimped the wire going to the auto return set up on the hoe. This has caused a short which then didnt allow the boom to swing sidways. I am sure you have gotten it figured out by now. I squashed the wire during putting on the backhoe. Hope this helps.

Has anybody had a problem with the Powersteering on a B20?Mine is leaking fluid up through the steering shaft, I know I have blown a seal in there and am about to rip it out. Any advise, looks straight forward to get out once the gas tank is removed.

Thanks bob S

Thanks TomB. If I've got it, the movement of the steering arms themselves from turning the steering wheel actuate the servo. Sounds like an interesting conversion.

Actually my dealer calls my 1710 PS a power assist, but I know he doesn't mean assist in your sense. He means that it really isn't that powerful compared to newer compacts. Or maybe he means than anything that runs off a priority valve rather than its own pump should be considered an assist. I guess the 1710 came before people came to believe that big loaders really are natural and essential parts of a compact tractor.

Mr. E. Yes I did read all the way, and it sounds like there are many good reasons for individuals to think about testing. My main reason is that disposal of used oil has gotten so difficult that I don't want to change oil unnecessarily. However, the ability of tests to identify premature wear and changes in maintenance routine that might be better than factory recommendations make testing even more interesting.

I made a rare drop-in to my distant dealer yesterday since I was in the area. Bought a bunch of 'odds and sods' and my wife bought me a new seat for my birthday--ahh but it’s more romantic than it might seem. I also asked if NH had the equivalent of JD FOS manuals. They probably don't—too bad.

I don’t know the 1215, but it may be similar to many small tractors. A higher engine gives more ground clearance, which often is desirable. I don't know if the tractor is ballasted either with loaded tires or wheel weights, but ballasting often is done as much to improved stability than to improve traction. Many small tractors have to use low range if their HST's have to work heavy drafts or steep hills.

Tex;
I own green, I just did not buy new, I bought used. I have found better deals on the used green than new and other tractors. Could be the neophytes willingness to spend for green or my willingness to wait to the dead of winter to buy, but I have had good prices on slightly used green.
The NH dealer in MS is much cheaper than the JD/kubota dealer.

I would like to recind my last statement for it isn't very fair to the product. The frustration I was having at the time was my fault for not making miner adjustments when stated. The machine has been great otherwise.
