It’s one thing to have someone do the “service.” It’s another to do it yourself. No questions; no worries; no concerns. Thanks

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

That is one of the big reasons we service things ourselves. We know that it is done right, using quality parts and fluids. Plus we can do it on our time and we don't ever have to wait!

Great video just bought a kx033 I have about 10 hours will save this video for future reference thank you

[@m.cooper1854]

I own a KX 033-4 and really appreciate your videos. It is the perfect size machine for my property and is deceptively powerful for its size. Regards from central Ontario Canada.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

I am glad to hear it! I love being able to share how capable these little machine are and connect with others that know what I mean!

[@jessielewing7361]

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@FredRogers-ls7bo]

Can't believe you blamed us for knocking the trim off! LOL. Fantastic video BTW. Thank you for this!

[@matthewbogumil6475]

Awesome video. I have a KX033 also and this is the best video on youtube for the 1000 hr.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thank you!

[@PineyWoodsHomestead]

Thanks for the help! Doing my first return filter replacement right now.

[@camrenboudreaux482]

Loved this video

[@MrJburich]

Awesome vid. I have a KX040 and videos like this are priceless man. I'd be SOL otherwise, and at the mercy of the dealers. Their high cost, and generally poor service (at most dealers) is never something I look forward to. Thanks!!

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thank you! These machines are pretty simple to work on, and Kubota reliability is very good! Keep up on the maintenance and they will last forever! Good luck!

[@jeffsaunders4785]

Nice job !! Waiting on my KXO 57-5 to be delivered

[@JohnPam0507]

Great video, don't be hard on yourself, you did great with the camera work, narration and showing us all the parts as you went along. I've got a 2022 033-4AB and am about to do 50 hr service and I really appreciate you and the video!!!

[@pierrebastien5222]

I've a 033 also and it"s nice to see some tutorials. Thanks

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Great to hear. Thanks for watching!

[@paulmang5840]

Thank you for the video. Very helpful.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thanks for watching!

[@frankrangel4155]

I Just got into a KX33. You keep making these videos and I'll keep watching.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Good to hear! You’ll love the machine.

[@thomassanville5226]

Awesome vid so far, on vaca now but had my kx 040 delivered and ready for me when I get home. Long ways away from 1000 hrs but I like to be prepared lol

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Not too bad of a service. We order all of our parts through Messicks. They are super fair on price and stuff ships out very quickly to us.

[@savvy1803]

The video was just fine Nick and will help others who are willing to tackle this and do the home service on their machine's , thanks for sharing and adios til next time 😃.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thanks for checking in again, week after week, no matter the content. See you on the next one!

[@gordonadams9038]

Thanks ,very helpful I would of missed the pilot filter.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

They sneak it in there alright! Mine wasnt too dirty.

[@michaelbessette8531]

The “degree” will pay for itself.

[@virgiliocarrilalvarez6638]

👌👌👍👍

[@thomaspletcher4735]

I do not have a mini Kubota excavator, but wish I had a KO-33 and found your video quite interesting. I do have multiple Kubota ZD mowers and a couple of Kubota tractors, so I could relate to similar components performing my own service as well. I am retired and could use a KO33 on my pond, creek, and woods, but I do not have a business to justify enough use. I can rent Kubota mini's from our local dealer, but would be nice to own a 33 and use on my time line and spontaneous uses. I have investigated and priced them comparing reach and power comparison. Why did you select the KO33 compared to 30, 40, or 57 when you purchased? So thanks for taking the time to create this video. It was good instruction and enjoyable to watch if I break down and get one.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

I originally wanted an 057. I thought it would be the most versatile sized machine. When we went to the dealer and actually stood next to these machines, we thought that the 033 was a good size for the type of work that we do. The 057 looked like a MONSTER of a machine for the types of properties that we mainly work on. Aside from size, the 033 was WAY cheaper. We got a smoking deal on our machine at the time, plus it came with a 12”, 24” bucket and a thumb. Lastly, the 033 is naturally aspirated, with ZERO emissions equipment, making it extremely reliable and fuel efficient. We have had zero mechanical issues with this machine in 1200hrs. The 033 had been a fantastic machine for us. In the future we do plan to add a KX-080 for the large projects.

[@Michael-sx6zq]

I enjoyed watching someone do a service and taking the time needed to do it right. I did notice your machine under the hood is very clean. What do you use to keep the motor so clean ?

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thank you for checking it out! I just use the pressure washer to give the motor a rinse down. Maybe every 1-2 months. This machine does not leak a drop, so it is very easy to keep it clean.

[@scottmizenko7015]

Awesome video awesome job! Everything I was looking to get accomplished with my 1750 hour maintenance for my U35-4 was addressed. BTW I have the service manual and was wondering how you reset the error code after periodic maintenance for filters are complete. My unit is showing “periodic maintenance” replace return filter? Thanks

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

The codes go away after you pass that specified “hour block” that it is referring to. I do not believe there is any way to manually reset it. A bit of a design flaw in my opinion.

[@scottmizenko7015]

@@NKLandscapingLLC thanks so much! Appreciate your time.

[@newiberian]

@NK: did you do the engine valve lash inspection/adjustment? did you conclude not necessary?

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

I did not. To be honest, I did not even think about doing one. I just checked the manual and the valve clearance is to be checked every 800hrs. I will have to check that out at my next service!

[@newiberian]

@@NKLandscapingLLC I should've said that I truly enjoy the videos; I am also using a KX033-4 for farm/ranch and its a great machine.

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

Thank you!

[@NothingSpecialHereCarryOn]

what is that attachment your using to move the bucket the way you did at the end of the video?? I just bought a new kx033-4 and super interested!

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

That would be a Steelwrist X04 tiltrotator! It is an absolutely fantastic attachment. Check out some of my other videos to see it working!

[@glenndacey1942]

Curious on the 50hr service, it states 'drain water from fuel tank'. Not the separator in engine bay. Have you done this and any pointers?

[@NKLandscapingLLC]

I dd not do that. I would assume that there would be no water in the tank if none is found in the separator.

[@Z-Bart]

That is the sized machine I want to get.

[@Z-Bart]

Just an observation. Prior to putting on the return filter housing...might be a good time to add the fresh hydraulic fluid. That 5-6" hole looks easier to hit than the little fill cap hole.
