Greetings Elliott! Brother I can't thank you enough. I'm in your debt. Man you just don't know just how long I've looked for a video like yours. I'm a first time tractor owner on a small farm in South Georgia. You're very informative and fun to watch. I've had my L4701 for 5 years, I bought it brand new. I have always taken my tractor in for maintenance, but you have convinced me that I can do this. I can't wait to perform my next maintenance. Thank you Elliott for this wonderful, fun and personal Kubota L4701 Maintenance video. You are the best. Darrell Casey (L4701 owner)
Absolutely the best Kubota L series fluid maintenance video on the internet. Plus, it was a pure delight to watch. Nobody else even comes close. When I told the dealer that I was going to do the 400 hour fluids myself, he said, "Right" and gave me the ol' eye roll. ( I am an ER doctor, not a mechanic.) Ha! But I have " Everything Elliott". Cannot thank you enough. R. Henry, M.D. (L 2501 owner)
My front axle took very little oil. I had to do it in more than one pouring. I got and a gallon and a half out, but only got almost a gallon back in. I added more over the course of a coupla days between uses! Too weird! This is why I watched your video actually, so I got to chuckling when I saw you have the same issue. Please comment about how any follow up filling of the front axle went. Thanks. Great Video.
I did it it in 4 checks. 2 the day I pulled it out. I added more the next day (not a lot, bout a pint) then a half pint the next day. She seeped just a drop today when I opened the check it port, but I am going to check it at each use a coupla more times. Thank You for responding.
What about the front axle fluid? Don’t forget to replace it also. I have an L3560 and just did all filters and fluids. The front end was last and a bit finicky to replace.
Subtracting dinner time, video set up and travel to the dealership. how long did the whole process take you? Great, informative video. Thanks for sharing, Elliott!
Kubota UDT 2 straight from the dealer. I believe I mentioned that in the video. It was the same price as the generic hydraulic fluid from tractor supply
