Kubota BX80 Series Front Quick Hitch

[mikloowl]

I come back and watch your videos for the snow blower, the loader, and the mower deck each season and I have to reiterate your videos have been a life saver in regards to remembering the steps do doing the mounting or disassembly in a timely fashion. Once again, thank you! If I was in MI I would come to your spot to purchase from you.

Looks a lot easier than with the old front mount system! Good improvement.

However, it just goes to show you can always learn something new. I've been using a BX for about 10 years now. First with a BX2200 and now a BX2360. I really like the tractor but connecting the rear PTO shaft on the MMM has always been a chore for me. I finally realized that having the PTO lever in the rear position (disengaging the mid PTO) would allow the shaft on the tractor to rotate and I could get the splines aligned easier. However I really had trouble then moving the "collar" back and pushing on the shaft to fully engage the coupling. NOW you show me that once the splines are aligned all I have to do is ram it home. I have been cussing that "anything but quick" coupling for a decade now. Why didn't you tell me sooner!! Thanks for your videos they are great!

I purchased the BX23S in May this year. I'm in NY and I've got to say that your videos are very well done and informative. If I lived in your area I would definitely purchase from your store. Thank you for all the work that you put into your videos as it helps everyone around the globe I'm sure.

With your walk through videos you have for the 2nd time given me the instructions that have helped me be ready for the seasons to come. Thank for the best walk through videos on YOUTUBE.

I have a BX2350 and hook my blower up every year after removing my mid mount mower and I can say this new setup is nicer! Great job Kubota and great job Neil on the video!

Hey Neil great videos, I purchased a new BX23S with 55inch heavy duty blower with the K connect system, works great, also if you pull the pin from lift cylinder on K connect system you don't have to lift the complete assembly, just hook it up then lift lower assembly, much easier on the back lol . Now that I see the chute deflector kit on I should have purchased it also . Nice part about the quick connect is a Blake or broom can be easily connected without other add ons . Yup front grill can be left on now, can't wait till it snows lol

You might want to consider a video on the quick hitch for the 2019 B2601-1's, now that that's an option. It's pretty similar to the BX, but not exactly the same in how it bolts up.

Other Kubota dealers around the world should pay Messick’s an annual fee to support production of these videos. It’s helping their customers and sales as well!

Thanks for walking us thru Neil ! ( learning )this will be my first winter with the BX 2380

Nice. The new Kubota front quick hitch is now similar to what Deere uses on the 1/2-series as opposed to that "tongue wedge" protrusion they used to use. I will say Kubota's design looks way more robust than the Deere version. I like the retractable coupling instead of fiddling with a short PTO shaft up front.

You should bring the 4Kp60 video quality back, it looks great!

@Neil Messick @Messicks has the LX2940 K-Connect quick hitch had any issues?Have you had anyone complain that the Lever Engagement Mechanism and the Yoke that is part of the Lever Engagement Assemby falling apart? Is this something that Kubota may be aware of??? Please any feedback on the reliability of that K-Connect would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Can you buy this new hitch system to replace the old style?

[theMekanik]

Do they have a flail for the front of these for clearing brush, and saplings?

[TRAVISGOLDIE]

I wish this could put the mid mount mower out the front... be awesome to have that deck out front and running so you so t drove over grass with tyres before cutting

[mrglock]

I like the BX 2380 videos best. These little tractors are great!!!👍👍

[davidsims]

How much does the quick coupler cost to add to an existing BX2380?

[frankcastle]

Do they have a frail mower for the front hitch?
