I have a kubota mx5200 with bh92 backhoe without the quick attach. Can I change it to a quick attach coupler. When I bought it I didn't realize how much time it takes to switch out the buckets by removing the two pins everytime.
In Australia we call them quick hitches and I don't believe I have ever seen, worked on or operated an excavator of any size other than mining or quarry that didn't have some kind of quick hitch, including Bobcat's clunky and ridiculous variety. Hydraulic-operated quick hitches are far better than gravity and are the norm, it is really unproductive to get out of a machine and have to beat the pins out of your 30t excavator's GP bucket to switch to a grading bucket, or a hammer, auger drive, tynes, packing wheel, etc, etc.
+Aldi More no, a pin grabber coupler could use the pin on buckets. Kubota has another option that uses a locking pin from the rear, but needs different buckets. Companies like werk-brau kinda enable you to have whatever you want.
The pin that you pulled out on the mechanical coupler was greased when I bought my kx057-5. Is it supposed to be greased? I can see it collecting a lot of dirt. My new werk brau buckets do not accept the pin very easily. May even need a hammer to get it in and out. I am hoping that once it wears in, it will be easier.
Just a Question. Did you see CASES pin Retraction system they showed at Con- Expo. The pins just retracted inside the Dipper holes haven't seen a lot of them in use sense the show. just wondering if you have seen that system, and what you thought of it. Thank you
is there a button or bolt to help release pressure off the hydraulic lines when switching to different attachments. I have the quick connect attachments but the hoses are always very hard to connect
James Dilbone I have had 3 john deere tlb 110 and the quick couplers on the front hydraulics give me tons of trouble....most of the time it is my grapples that have gotten hot causing the fluid to expand...I’m sick of having to use wrenches to bleed of the pressure....
I have seen something like a pressure release on an “ASV” .......it was right where you would couple the hoses....I have not found anything for mine yet.....sometimes it is the machine holding pressure, sometimes its my grapples holding pressure.....when its my grapples I use wrenches to bleed the pressure.....
Nothing wrong with this video, but just want to say, America is so far behind the times, this stuff is so primitive. In Europe, all they use are Engcon tiltrotators and such. I'm just blown away that we haven't caught up yet. Are we not supposed to be a world super power?

Love your videos. Very well spoken. I'm on the hunt for my very first excavator and your videos are helping me a lot.

Very informative thanks

How does the Kubota hydraulic quick coupler compare to these?
its a pin-grabber. Mechanical or hydraulic and works from the seat.
Ah, so it uses the same bucket as the standard quick couple?

Yes, lightly grease the pin.

The pins just retracted inside the Dipper holes
haven't seen a lot of them in use sense the show.
just wondering if you have seen that system, and what you thought of it. Thank you
I have not, Kubota is selling a similar setup we have sold. Keeps the bucket tighter to the dipper than a pin grabber.
Will a KX040 bucket fit a KX057
No
Can you put a Hydraulic coupler on the m62 for the backhoe buckets
not as a factory configuration, but I am sure it can be done.
Messick Farm Equipment
Good to know. Look to maybe buy the m62

Has there been a solution for releasing pressure without breaking lines,, I have a new kubota kx71, trying to figure out how to attach the breaker

@@MrJoeyplatinum we figured it out. It want the machine, it was the breaker that needed bleeding. Problem solved . Thanx for your advise robby
Why don't you have a hydraulic quiks coupler. It is much more eficient and easy to work with
+Eric Klessens available, but not used frequently. Robs power, costly to install.
Messick Farm Equipment, oh yeh we use them all the time here in the netherlands it is very uncommen to see one with out
ja wij hebben hier sw10 20 30 40 50 koppelingen die werken ook veel makelijke dan dit
Where's the rototilt?
rototilts are awesome! In Europe I know they are everywhere, but they are hardly seen here in the US.
Yes! that's what I just replied up top. So true! WTH is going on here at home?

That stuff's widely available here. Two reasons it's not very popular, it's wildly expensive, and also takes away from your breakout forces.
