Specific to the Kubota L3301's 11-24 rear tires, it covers the exact fill volume (24 gallons to 75%), the fill setup, priming the pump, handling air bleeds, and reinflating. Practical for any compact tractor owner doing this job for the first time on a budget.

The Kubota 11-24 rear tires hold around 24 gallons when filled to the 75 percent mark, with the valve stem in the vertical 12 o'clock position.
Windshield wiper fluid works well because it is cold resistant and affordable when bought in large quantities like 50 gallons.
A tire valve adapter kit, a Harbor Freight drill pump, a short section of hose for outtake, and another hose for intake into the fluid container.
Bump the air bleeder on the tire valve adapter a few times until fluid comes out, then the pump should flow well.
