Are you greasing every grease fitting on your Kubota BX?

Thank you for making this video. You saved the Day! It's hard to believe that a little grease and exercising the forward and reverse pedals would prevent my tractor from starting. After checking battery voltage and the fuses I turned to youtube. Thanks again!

Great! I had that problem with the tractor not starting and thought it was the switch. Now, if it happens again I will move the peddle. Thank you, Ralph

I`m probably a rare one here, because i go by the book on everything i own. Could be why i don`t have nearly the issues others have i guess. I even buy the shop manuals. Still an excellent video regardless Lucas.

Good point! This one may need the special Lear Jet grease tube. It gets used every time the tractor fires up.

Good tip, Lucas. Our L Series creeps but it doesn't have a grease fitting on the treadle. I've bent that HST damper before....they are $100!! Oh, and WalMart has literally been out of grease for months.

I constantly forget to grease that point. I think I've greased it exactly once in the (almost) 150 hours I've got on my BX. I always grease everything else then go about my business only to realize a few minutes later that I forgot to get that one. "No problem, I'll catch it next time. One missed greasing isn't going to hurt anything..." Then, yeah -- I forget it the next time and the whole cycle starts again lol

Well I'll be darned I found mine on an older tractor and the zerk fitting was covered up with bed liner, and I've been having issues where I let off and the tractor wants to keep going so now I know how to fix it

That little cooling fan used to be very very expensive to replace - if you use it in rough conditions you might want to get a aftermarket guard.
@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead Жыл бұрын
😂🤣. You’re not wrong. I replaced my fan for $18 but it was a decent job. I have a video on it. It doable in under 2hours.
@scotmiller5979 Жыл бұрын
Mine came with a broken HST fan. They cost less than 15$. Took about 3 hours and I drilled the hole rather than taking everything apart. Used it 1 hour and a stick broke it…again. Second time took me an hour plus I installed the skid plate. Wise to do so. The dealer charges around 400 I was told.
@Sventy11 Жыл бұрын
Pretty sure this is the only zerk fitting on the tractor, obviously not including the FEL or BH. Have you ever done the recommended adjustment for the home position of the pedal?

Shame, shame. Looks like someone hasn't been watching Paul Shorts old maintenance video he put out a few years ago. Lol Also, don't forget to turn the knobs for both mower lift and the one that controls speed of rear pto lift arms. Paulsaid they'll freeze up as well. As a matter of fact, I am going to do my now.

If you have a BX and you don't know what and how to grease it you need to sell it it now. It is not a lawn mower that you put gas in as needed. It is a machine to be respected and maintained.
