- Before the first use of this year we service the Kubota B2782B Front Mount Snowblower. This was not a full on service but I covered the major components.

Great job on the maintenance Dave.
Very envious of your equipment. Both the tractor and the blower.
I really like my cab on my big Deere in the winter.
The Kubota is great to have around as well. It gets in and out of tighter places but it gets a little cold being right out in the weather.
I don't think I could do winter again without a cab. I'm too far gone
I did read in the manual to change the gear oil once a year. The color of the oil from your blower gear box proved it needs to be done. For the little effort it takes it is well worth doing. Have a good one!
@@JelenOutDoors I think so too. Have a great rest if the weekend
I think you're all set and ready for the next big storm Dave, well done my friend 👍🏻. Have a great weekend 🙋🏼♂👍🏻🙂⛄
Thanks Luc. Looks like a green Christmas this year though. 🫤
@@BeginnerforBSeries Yeah, rain for the next few days here 😠🙋🏼♂
Full watch and a thumbs up 👍🏻 Dave
Thanks Gary
Great, in-depth video Dave. I think a lot of us are going to have a green Christmas unless we take the blowers off. We'd probably get buried then😄
So true 😂
Top work Dave, all ready to rock for another season! Fluid film is a great product for sure, I also use chain bar oil on all my chains. See you on the next one.
Thanks Andrew. I use that fluid film quite a bit. Looking forward to seeing more of that front pusher of yours
Good morning Dave ☕️☕️🤔🇺🇸
Good morning, Gary!
Hi David, well done. I like hiw you have just a big gear on the back if the blower, mine has another full reduction gearbox thst has fluid inside as well. Thsnks fir showing the process.
Absolutely Ross. To be honest when I had my BX that blower rotated much faster and I think thtew the snow better but I'm super happy with this one too.
Hey Dave great job and well explained. It blows my mind how much more complicated your front blower is compared to my rear one. Mine is also much easier to lube up and maintain vs your front mount. You really do pay for the convenience in every single aspect!! Cheers, Alex
Very true Alex
I have the same blower. I suggest chain tension be checked during this maintenance routine and while you're at it, check the shaft bearings in the reduction box for play. Grab ahold of the PTO shaft where it connects to the reduction box and the only movement you should feel is the natural rotation. Any lateral movement is no bueno. As soon as play develops, you'll get a vibration which will cause the PTO shaft to separate from the blower at around 2600 RPM. The only thing holding it on is a keyway, allen screw and a 1/4 bolt. That bolt will break like dried spaghetti under power. Anyway, my 2 cents. My blower has had around 200 hours on it over 4 years and I can add that for ya. Good vid..
Good idea, Richard. Thanks for the tips. Have you had any issues with it yourself? We probably have around the same hours.
Yep. The shaft started coming off at full RPM. (If you haven't had your morning coffee when that happens, THIS happening will wake you up. The sound is "terrifying" lol). I tried to troubleshoot it over the phone with the dealer. They said there shouldn't be any stress on the half shaft that would cause it to pull off and suggested I tighten up the hex bolt but it kept happening. It wasn't until I watched it rotating at low RPM without the safety shield on, that I discovered a lot of wobble as it rotated. I shut it down and inspected it by hand and found A LOT of play. The shaft and outer bearing were just toast. @@BeginnerforBSeries
@@richardwestin3331 definitely going to have to check that out. Thank you!
@@BeginnerforBSeriesIf you end up having to replace the bearing, refer to the exploded diagram in the manual. Yull need to order the shaft, the sprocket, and both bearings with locking collars. The diagram makes it look like they all just slide on and off the shaft over the keyway, but nope. The sprocket and one of the locking collars are brazed on from the factory for some reason. (I guess for absolute security). Buying all the parts is fairly cheap and putting it all together certainly should not require re brazing. Use red lock tite on the allen set screws which when tightened, bite into the metal. It all sandwiches together upon assembly. Oh, and since those original parts were brazed on after assembled into the reduction box housing at the factory, yull need to cut the shaft in order to get it out. Sounds more complicated than it is.
@@MrJOSEPHMAMA thanks so much, Joe. So glad I have commentators like you to help and who have been through this. Fingers crossed I don't run into an issue.
Every season for that gear box oil, huh? I hit all the grease fittings but I guess I should check my manual because it sounds like I might have a job to do...
It's pretty easy to do and cheap, Jim. Even after 4 seasons I see metal shavings in there.
