It covers engine oil and filter, hydraulic/HST filters (suction vs. return), fuel filter, and hydraulic fluid, with practical tips on identifying filters and disposing of old oil. He notes the total cost was about $495 in Kubota-brand parts and fluids at 595 hours. Good for owners planning their own DIY oil change.
Posted by Puddle Jumper, an owner doing his own tractor maintenance with casual, personal commentary rather than professional or dealer polish.
The filter is labeled, one side says suction and the other says HST for hydrostatic. One filter is also taller and longer than the other, so size helps identify them too.
The owner spent about $495 total on Kubota-brand oil and filters for the engine oil, hydraulic/HST filters, fuel filter, and hydraulic fluid at 595 hours.
The owner says it is done about every 100 hours to keep everything running good, and he does it when his tractor needs it since he works it pretty hard.
No, there is still hydraulic fluid left in the lines and cylinders on the front end loader, so you will not get it all, just a majority of it.
