Power for work lights??
Did you look at the lights page on this site? There are links to some discussions including one with photos of the connections. Type Lights into the saerch field and you should find it, or use the menus and go into the Implements/Attachements section.

2660 and mower deck
I actually have the BX2230 with the 54" deck. What works best for me is to raise the deck lift fully, then move the deck height dial to"TOP" which locks the deck from being lowered, even if you lower a three-point implement.

Kubota tractor information 2
"Hi Andy, How do I get to the link you're talking about? Not a lot of discussion in this group. New group or been around awhile?
Have a great day
Larry" Hi Larry,
On the left hand side of this site is a menu. (It is above the stack of Google Ads and below the word Home). That shows all the top level pages of this site. Click on the orange triangles to expand the menu entries. E.g. in the Implements/Attachments menu are pages for Aerator, Back blade, Backhoe etc.)
Further down the menu is a heading "Parts and Manuals" and that page has the link I referred to (and that you also supplied). The menu is easier to use if you "grab" the dotted link at its lower edge and pull it down to give a taller menu area.
I agree the menu could be easier to use but it's outside of my control. This site is hosted by Wetpaint and they make money from the Google ads - so they want to make sure they are visible instead of the menu, unfortunately. Getting the ads removed from the site would cost $20 a month, so unless enough members contribute to cover it we are stuck with the ads.
As for why there isn't much discussion on this site, I created the site in 2007 to become more like an online manual for BX tractors and their attachments rather than a discussion board. I try to put the best definitive information I can on each page, but because I don't have much time I frequently put a link to the most educational discussions already taking place on the TractorByNet Kubota forums. So if you have a specific question that is not answered already here, that's the place to ask it.
Since we are talking about the history of the site here are some statistics ...
107 registered members.

Bx 24
"I am considering purchasing a new bx 24 I'm on 5 acres of hilly ground part of which I am growing olive tree's ,citrus and fruit and nut tree's. I was going to spec it out with Bush Hog SQ142 Rotary Cutter,60" landpride Rear Blade RB548, Landpride Landscape Rake LR0560 54" mid mount mower.On the FEL I was considering putting on a tooth bar FTB to suit by W.R Long. Can the tooth bar be taken off when you are not using the FEL for digging? Would you substitute the tooth bar with the W.R Long Wear bar for general use,I'm assuming that they would share the same holes on the FEL.
A suggestion was made that I put on a Rankin thumb to the BH I was a little concerned that they would have to weld it on to prevent slipage but if I needed to get it off at some stage this would be a problem . Does anyone have any experience with this thumb how does it compare to the Bro-Tek? in quality , strengh etc. Has anybody had slippage with this thumb?
I had a look at the Bro-Tek web site and was impressed with the rear and front skid plates due to the fact that I seem to have rocks that grow out of the ground , has anybody who has fitted the rear skid had any conflict when putting on there Mid Mount Mower.
Bro-tek,s ripper and trenching plow look quite good if anybody has purchased these items could they tell me if they are happy with these items ? " Hi and Welcome to the BX Wiki. Firstly I'd say that you'll get more replies to questions if you post them on TractoryByNet in the Kubota forum - it's more active than the Discussion forum here. However I'll answer a few of your points.
The WR Long bar attaches with bolts, so in that sense you can remove it. I think you can also fold it back into the bucket but I expect that still requires the bolts to be loosened. I'm planning to get one myself. I've not seen any mention of the Wear Bar in the context of BX24s - I do not think most owners use one.
Similarly Rankin thumb does not seem to get mentioned (on TractorbyNet) by BX24 owners. Most have the Wallenstein or Bro-Tek thumbs. The Wallenstein has had slipping issues (as mentioned on the Thumb page of this site). The Bro-Tek does not slip and does not require welding.
The rear skidplate should work with the MMM - there is a removable "door" in the skidplat to accommodate the PTO attachment.
