Changing Final Drive Oil on a mini excavator

here we go over some of the rough points of the final drive oil change on a Kubota kx040 mini excavator
I did not see some of this information when I had to learn how so here it is!

Hey brother thanks for the video but I think it's first 50 hours and then every couple hundred

Put a light on and leave door open. Also buy some peppermint oil at health food store or online and mix in spray bottle with water and hit it 1 time a week. Worked for me.

I started using similar in a spray and these bags that smell like peppermint xmas trees. have not had an issue since, also might have set some exterior traps.

Hello, do you have one excavator? And why did you choose KX 040-4 over KX 080-4? Thanks and good luck!

[@hadleyreviews2666]

the 080 is massive in comparison

[@hadleyreviews2666]

the 040 is a good size for someone who doe snot need it all the time, landscaper size it does most jobs I want it to, starting over I would have gone with the 057 for the little bit of extra weight and power but were talking 25 k more. its all a trade off

[@billbrady6514]

Do you have any videos on doing a full oil change on this machine? And a hydraulic oil change over?

[@hadleyreviews2666]
