Great job, totally enjoyed it. I have the cab model and yes the hydraulic fill opening is a pain.

[@JelenOutDoors]

Good Morning Sir, Very well detail informative maintenance video and OUSTANDING close view 😇🧐👌👍 It is always a good idea to change the oil earlier than per the maintenance manual ask, especially the very first time since you do not know how long the oil was put in, tractor was on display for sale,,, 👌🧐OUTSTANDING TIPS 👌👍🧐 Yes snug and not (F) crazy torqued nuts or bolts does the job 🥴🤣👌👍 That is realy not easy to find the flush bolts in deed, Great closes view to show them 🧐👌👍 Again Sir both of you made an OUTSTANDING MAINTENANCE VIDEO Cheers 👍👍👌👌🧐🧐🍻🍻

[@JelenOutDoors]

Great video Paul, 2 👍👍, you have very good mechanics skills. A little tip I use on my machines, I write down the date and the hours on my filters with a Sharpie. Yves from Boisbriand, Québec, Canada

[@JelenOutDoors]

Thanks Yves, thanks for the tip. I know most people timestamp their filters or keep a running notebook. I don't because I am very diligent about following the owners manual scheduled intervals by hours or mileage. I also keep all receipts well organized. If I have been working in extreme conditions I will do a service earlier and then again at the scheduled interval. If I sell something then I do a complete service regardless of when the last maintenance was done before I pass it on to someone else. Thanks for watching and the continued support. Have a great evening!

If you're going to run to check your hydraulic level... You should run the loader and maybe three point. To circulate the hydraulic fluid

[@JelenOutDoors]

As soon as the tractor is started hydraulic fluid will flow through the hydraulic system in a constant loop as the pump builds up pressure. I think if I just added new hoses or directional control valves then I would operate them to purge air and fill with fluid. When the fluid was drain one side (closed) of the loader and 3pth would have fluid and the other would fill as fluid flows through the loop. This is the way I understand it.

[@thegreatnorthwoodswithbb2863]

On the hydraulic drain the middle plug first.. that way it won't fly out so far and hard out of the axle plugs

[@JelenOutDoors]

Draining the hydraulic fluid from the center plug 1st may have taken some of the pressure away from the side plug draining out so far. There still a lot of flow on the 2nd side plug after I drained fluid from the center. Next time I will try from the center, let it drain completely then do the side plugs. I will keep a piece of cardboard handy to deflect any fluid if necessary.

[@jimkasianides5676]

a little tip if you set your oil filters aside to drain, punch 1 or 2 holes in the end of the filter, you'll be surprised how much more oil comes out of the filter that is trapped in there, probably another 8 to 10 ounces

[@JelenOutDoors]

Thanks for the tip Jim, I still have the filters because I want to cut them open but I shall definitely punch a few holes as you recommended before cutting them in half. I appreciate you watching, have a great weekend!

[@russelliott5351]

Great video, good tip with the cardboard, I always make a mess on my BX. I noticed your LX is made in Japan, I wonder if they all are or just the Canadian market.

[@JelenOutDoors]

Hi Russ, you are right, it's hard not to make a mess. I had a BX for 6 years previous to my LX and I can say the BX is an awesome tractor. Good question. Supposedly most North American Kubota's are manufactured in Georgia , USA. I know my BX was. I don't know if specific models come from Japan and others from the US. You got me wondering too. Thanks for watching and have a great day!

[@russelliott5351]

@@JelenOutDoors I love the BX, I've had mine for 11 years now and I am considering the same upgrade you've made. Going to be hard to say no to that cab model though, the price is just so steep!

[@JelenOutDoors]

@@russelliott5351 It is a lot for a cab. I tried out the cab model but I am too much on and off the tractor and being in the bush so much I think the cab would get damaged. Happy tractoring.

[@thegreatnorthwoodswithbb2863]

No reason to really poor little motor oil in and check the dipstick.... It takes 4.2 courts. Put a full gallon in and a splash

[@JelenOutDoors]

If I would have measured out the amount of required motor oil from the 5 litre (5.2 quart) jug then poured it in then yes I should not need to pour and check the dipstick in little increments. Although, regardless of measuring the oil out or just filling and checking I will always do a final dipstick check to ensure fluid is at the appropriate level.

[@thegreatnorthwoodswithbb2863]

That does not look like Kubota hydraulic oil that they highly recommend... They're just went the warranty

[@JelenOutDoors]

It is the Kubota premium UDT hydraulic fluid in the large pail. I buy it from the Kubota dealer by the jug and pail.
