@noelstractors-firewood57 2 года назад

Great explanation. I don’t have one of those tractors. But most of my garden tractors have that height adjustment knob. The shield guard underneath, is that a factory piece. Would the dealer put it on normally if it is ? And if you are backing up in the woods or muddy area, does the rear of the guard lift high enough to miss the dirt ? Had my Case 446, with 48” snow thrower, out yesterday to clean up a 20-25 cm wet heavy April snow storm. That’s what I did on my land yesterday. ! Hopefully no more. But. Never know. Can’t wait for Plow days and tractor runs. Have a good one.

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

Hey Noel, the under armour is an aftermarket order from a company called BXPanded. And yes you can raise it up high enough to never have it catch when going backwards. I usually keep it at Top, and this locks the arms from moving and safe. I'm finally glad our snow is gone, and temperatures are rising! We have some local events here as well and it'll be nice to see them this year as well! Thank you for watching and commenting.

@StandingStones1776-vb6zn 4 месяца назад

hi and thanks for the video, I have had a Kubota 1870 since 2015 I have the snow blower and front bucket and weight bucket on rear but this is the first season I have attached the belly mower and I could raise and lower the belly mower ok till yesterday I will see what is going on and spray up the linkage. So I have to raise the weight bucket all way up then adjust the mower height? learning on this mower thing

@RossOnTheLand 4 месяца назад

Hello, and glad this helps. If it's the same type of setup, then yes. Raise the 3pt arms all the way up and. Then you should be able to rotate the height knob. It is stiff, but will rotate in either direction. Wearing gloves helps, and yes get under the deck and see if it's all gummed up with dirt and clean it out and lube it up if needed.

@chappy2312 4 месяца назад

I have a silly newbie question… Assuming this knob is for the mid mower deck only and has no effect on the back three-point hitch?

@RossOnTheLand 4 месяца назад

Hello, If you have the BX the height of the Mid Mower Deck is raised and lowered using the same mechanism as the rear 3 point arms. All the knob does is stop the MMM from moving full range when the 3point arms are lowered full range. Because there is only one control lever to raise and lower both... So raise the rear 3 point arms all the way up, and then rotate the knob to the desired number, and lower the 3 point arms and the MM will stop at that point.

@dirtgirt886 5 месяцев назад

With the body armor I'm guessing cannot use a belly mower. Is there a skid plate that will work with both a belly mower and the front mount blower?

@RossOnTheLand 5 месяцев назад

Hello, I do not believe so, but really the point of the armor is to protect the underside of the tractor, and the belly mower would be doing just that. So in my case I do not have a belly mower because I use a separate zero turn mower, I do like having the protection in the summer, and in the winter I don't usually go through the brush and branches while focusing on snow clearing the driveway and trails.

@GingerSnap-ot7ez 3 месяца назад

When I lower my deck mower my 3 point hitch lowers too, how do I stop that? Also show us your toolbox. Handy!

@RossOnTheLand 3 месяца назад

Hello! The mower deck and 3point hitch are tied to the same action. The way to stop it is to use the numbered turning knob on the deck floor and put it to TOP. This will hold the MMM up and not let it lower when using the rear 3 point hitch. I have another video on the ammo box toolbox back in my older catalog if vids.

I seem to be having trouble with my BX2380..... we have just purchased it recently, and even when I put the 3 point all the way up, my knob will not spin in either direction. Maybe I am missing something, however I feel like I am doing it how you've explained! Any suggestions? Thanks!

@RossOnTheLand 13 дней назад

Hello Brendan, if it has not been used in a long time the detents on the backside shaft (under the deck) may be seized. Put the rear 3pt arms all the way up, and get under the tractor and look at the knob's shaft. The shaft runs on a stepped bar (controlling the mid mount mower height) Make sure it's free and not sitting on the shaft. You should then be able to spray some PB Blaster or lubricant on it. Then go up and use channel locks on the plastic knob (protected by a rag or something) and slowly work it loose. I routinely have to wear gloves as the spring to clamp is very stiff. It will rotate in either direction. Let me know if you have any trouble.

@HuserHelpers 2 года назад

Do you not pin the underarmor in the raised position all summer long?

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

I quickly mentioned that but maybe I should have elaborated. I usually keep the under armour at Top. But James from Killing it Country leaves his arms to have some motion so things don't seize. So I'm going to run with a bit of motion and keep stuff lubed up.

@wildbill23c 2 года назад

It should be locked in the highest position yes. Otherwise it'll hang down and potentially catch on stuff you run over. I keep my skid plate on pretty much all year as I don't use my mid mount mower very often right now. If you follow the lubrication guides you won't have any problems with stuff seizing up. Use a good tacky grease or light oil on all the components and it'll work just fine.

Good info and visual on the knob function. Excellent idea to use a skid plate to protect the undercarriage. Although you can't use the skid plate in the winter because it interferes with your snowblower connection you would not want it on anyways because it would trap ice and snow where you don't want.

Hello, if you are sure you have lifted your rear 3 point arms to their highest position, do it again, then try using a pair of gloves to get more grip on the adjustment knob, or maybe a pair of channel lock pliers but be gentle not to wreck the plastic knob. If the underside of your deck has some corrosion or dirt build up it may need some lube or persuasion.

@ipresent 2 года назад

I just bought a used BX2380. No idea what knob locks the mower, what knob hydraulic lifts the mower, but I do see the knob that is supposed to turn but doesn't. This video shows the mechanics of the lock (I guess.) Maybe I can push on it with a screw driver and see which knob above moves. Just kidding. Can somebody point out these things in a quick video. Look, if millennials ever inherit a tractor, they'll need all this basic info too. Help us out. The manual is full of locks and hydraulic lifts. Is it safe to just start yanking knobs until one does what you want? Seriously, just a quick video with out the trouble shooting. How to work it, if it's functioning as it's supposed too. Then, I'll figure out if it's broke or not.

I have a rear blade on my BX 1880 and does it have to be in the raised position when you turn the knob to 2 in order to drop it.

@RossOnTheLand Год назад

Oh excellent :) 👍 Yes you should put the rear blade up all the way to relieve the pressure on the knob's detents. It'll make turning the knob easier.

Ross.

I too have an under armor shield for my little tractor but it's made in sectons which I haven't crawled underneath to fasten yet. I'm definitely concerned about the HST fan when I travel through wooded areas. If that HST fan gets whacked, all hell breaks loose and money just pours out your wallet. Right now I'm going through my 3rd week of pine needle raking and stacking before I have to shovel them into a cart for their final deposit at a pre-designated spot for dying pine needles (their graveyard).

Hello, my suggestion is to turn on the tractor and run the tractor at about 2.5k rpms, then use the control lever to lift the rear 3pt arms all the way up. This should remove any restrictions on the height adjustment knob. If it is still not moving, turn the tractor off and crawl under the tractor and verify that the bottom side of the height adjustment knob is not in contact with any of the detents.

A few other things. 1) Watch the coolant level, it has been known to drop after about 30 hours as there is usually some air left in the system. 2) check the front tires diff fluid level using the yellow cap on the front diff. 3) if your throttle starts slowing down and not staying at speed, it's usually the jam nut under the throttle lever backing off, take the black grill at your feet off and reach up underneath and add a nyloc nut to it to stop that from happening.

@wildbill23c 2 года назад

With the deck on you don't need the skid plate as the mower deck is there to protect the under side of the tractor. Mower installation/removal for me takes maybe 5 minutes, overall 10 minutes due to having to drop the loader bucket, put the pallet forks on, go get the mower off the pallet and bring it around to the carport to install it, then remove whatever 3 point implement/attachment I have on at the time, then remove the skid plate and install the mower deck...the rear lift arms are the hardest part of the whole thing to get lined up and locked in, after that its very quick and easy.

@jared5862 2 года назад

Great explanation of how the knob works. Only thing I’d recommend is showing how to adjust the 3 pt to be able to get the knob to the top position and then recommending that you run the skid plate with it locked in top position. If it’s hanging down at all and you back up in some brush you just made a feed ramp to put sticks right up in the undercarriage and fan.

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

Those are good additional information I should revisit. Thank you for commenting.

@1966poker 2 года назад

Should lock up in Top Position and not lower at all. You may have to adjust the linkage at the left rear tire. In my case I could not get mine into the TOP position until I placed a jack under the plate and put pressure on it which then allowed me to lock in the TOP position so it will not drop when lowering a rear implement. The plate was that tight of a fit.

Hey Terry, my suggestion is to remove the under armour, put the Knob at Top, turn on the tractor and pull up the 3pt control lever. Then crawl under and verify that it's working as intended.

Mine does the same thing, I crawl down next to the tractor so I can reach under it and slightly press up on the skid plate as I raise the 3 point and it'll then allow me to select TOP on the adjustment knob.

Ross...I'm stuck...2013 BX2670....I followed the instructions...3 pt all the way up. The knob position is in the highest setting 4. Cannot get it to rotate...can you help. I have raised and lowered the 3 pt....raised and lowered deck...nothing...any help would be appreciated

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

Hello Mike, and welcome. With the rear 3pt arms all the way up, (like all the way) Does the Knob wiggle at all? It may have seized. My suggestion is to crawl underneath and spray with liquid wrench or WD40 and see if you can get it to wiggle. And see if the tab of the arms are in contact with the detents on the knob. That's your best chance of seeing if there is still interference. Let me know if that works.

@@RossOnTheLand after a while and much musing .. I thought that there could be tension on the 3 pt ...so I manually pulled the deck up and placed props under the edge of the deck....much to my surprise ...the maneuver works...was able to start the disconnect for the mower...but much to my chagrin the disconnect required more than available videos...in the end...got it off...now it's time for celebration..woo hoo here comes 99!

@@mikeclarke4573 glad you got it off, so now have a look to see how your MMM adjustment knob is interfering with the 3pt arm tab. Happy day.

@tripler3724 2 года назад

Two of the only few things I dislike on a BX and I own two. I prefer the Bro-Tek plates as you can leave the rear plate on with the MMM, yes a stick got past my MMM and destroyed my HST fan. I HATE not having position control 3PH like on everything else I own including my JD 1025r. Even with all that, I still prefer them; beats me why. FYI Paul and Kathy Short have some really nice improvements for several models of Kubota at Specialty Repair. I have kids, so the tail light and hazard light guards have paid for themselves.

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

Hello, yes I like the Brotech guard as well. I have to take it off for winter snowblowing so that's a pain. I have watched the Shorts for many years and love all their products. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@vincentfisher74 Год назад

great video and it really explains it perfectly. The one thing that I was interested in was how to you see that stepped part because it seems to let down the mower deck too far. thanks

@RossOnTheLand Год назад

Hello, I'm glad it helped. It has to let it down far enough that the mower will ride along the ground at various levels depending on the ground's surface so it does need long travel. Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

@vincentfisher74 Год назад

@@RossOnTheLand thanks for the reply, when I turn it to 4.0 it seems to go all the way to the bottom. How can i see the adjustment ratchet like you showed. Take tire off and get down and look at what angle. from the rear or left or right side. thanks

@RossOnTheLand Год назад

If your mower deck is off, slide under. It's exactly below that turn knob. You'll be able to see what's going on and what position it's in. You should then be able to work out what position it's in. Hopefully that helps.

@vincentfisher74 Год назад

@@RossOnTheLand thanks ross, I need to take it off and service it, I had a shop doing it and it was not up to my standards. I saw you video on how to get it off out the front will give it a try.

@RossOnTheLand 2 года назад

I only use mine to hold the Under Armour, but it's good practice to move it every so often so it doesn't seize from lack of use.

@@RossOnTheLand I have to laugh only because I bought the mid mount mower deck back in Dec when I bought the BX23S, but it still hasn't come in yet. So I had planned on using the raise and lower dial, but maybe they'll come when the snow flys. 😂
