Read articles →An owner-operator in Northern Ontario walks through installing the Kubota hydraulic chute deflector (LX2963 kit) on an LX2620, including a candid breakdown of how the kit actually arrives in pieces rather than as a complete unit, hose fitting challenges, and a custom bracket workaround for the left-side third-function valve. Also covers shear pin offset tips and blower greasing points. Best for LX2620 owners tackling the same hydraulic deflector install.
An owner-operator sharing first-hand trial-and-error experience on their own property, with no apparent dealer or brand affiliation.
No. It comes in pieces: a basic hydraulic cylinder, pins and cotter pins, and two hydraulic hoses without fittings that the owner had to add himself.
The owner was told it takes about a liter to fill the cylinder and hoses, though he planned to verify this himself.
Use chain oil, not grease, since grease gets bogged down in cold weather and will seize up the chute rotator.
There are four grease points: one on either side of the blower frame and one on each shaft about halfway down, using quarter inch fittings.
