It covers changing the engine oil and filter, both hydrostatic/hydraulic filters, checking transmission fluid, greasing all fittings, retorquing loose loader bolts, and priming after refill. Axle service is skipped for a later video. Good for owners planning to DIY their own scheduled maintenance.
Posted by an owner-operator on the Creekside Homestead Alaska channel doing their own tractor maintenance rather than a dealer or professional mechanic.
The owner notes filters get changed at service intervals like 250 hours, but the oil itself is not changed every time, only the filters are.
The book calls for 10W30 no matter the temperature, since it is a non-emissions, non-turbo diesel engine.
Yes, the owner does engine oil and filter, both hydrostatic filters, greasing, and retorquing loader bolts himself in his garage instead of paying a dealer.
There are two filters near the mid PTO area, one labeled hydraulic filter and one transmission filter, though both share the same hydraulic oil.
