It clarifies a common confusion (the hydraulic filter is NOT changed at 50 hours, only at 200/400 with a full fluid drain), shows the actual filter removal under the tractor, refilling with Super UDT fluid, and clearing the radiator screen. Useful for owners doing their own 50-hour service.

No. The manual says only the HST filter is required at 50 hours. The hydraulic filter is changed at 200 or 400 hours along with a full fluid drain.
The manual warns not to take it out during the 50-hour change because the hydraulic fluid will come pouring out since the system has not been drained.
The two bolts for the clamps holding the hydraulic lines out of the way were a 12 mm socket.
Super UDT hydraulic fluid is added to replace what came out with the filter, then checked against the dipstick next to the fill cap.
