The presenter narrates comparisons to Kubota BX tractors throughout: tire size and ground clearance, shared engine specs and oil capacity, hydraulic oil cooler advantages, quick-attach loader compatibility, and three-point hitch frame mounting. Good for buyers weighing a B-series step-up from a subcompact and curious about brush hog sizing and tractor weight/leverage tradeoffs.
Posted by Mitten Equipment, a used tractor and attachment dealership, so the commentary reflects a seller's hands-on comparisons rather than an independent long-term owner's review.
A 60-inch brush hog is probably the ideal size for this tractor, though a four-foot would also work for this horsepower rating.
Yes, the B2601 has an actual hydraulic oil cooler in front of the radiator, unlike BX tractors which only use a cheap plastic fan near the rear axle.
Both the B2601 and BX use the same engine and both take 3.3 quarts of oil, though the B2601 oil pan has two drain plugs for the four-wheel drive driveshaft.
Keeping the tail wheel on the ground prevents the rocking momentum and leverage caused by the brush hog bouncing when going over bumps while raised.
