What Do YOU Use This For? - I Forgot My Kubota BX Even Had This Feature!
Peek's Peak Hobby Homestead· Feb 2023
✦
Overview
A short, casual explainer focused entirely on the BX23S cruise control lever, how to engage it, how to disengage it, and the manual's caution against using the reverse treadle to cancel it. The owner also shares why, after 470 hours over three years, he's never found it useful on his small, rough property. Best for BX23S owners who've noticed that lever and wondered what it does.
An owner-operator channel run by hobby homesteaders on a 38-acre property, so perspectives reflect small-scale, rough-terrain use rather than larger farm or commercial applications.
