Thank you so much for this video. I have the exact same excavator and was getting pretty frustrated last night trying to figure out the instructions. Much appreciation!!!
Good video. Thanks .Have Kubota kx040-4 Looking to do first final drive drain. Like comment about warming with hairdryer to speed up flow of 99 wt. And also warming new oil going in. Another video on same project used the boom bucket pressed on the ground to lift track in order to rotate drive to proper alignment. Plugs very tight. Find any torque spec for plugs going back in.? Norther California
The document Quality Control slipped up there, lucky the users are very intelligent to do it correctly regardless, I guess there is many manuals that have errors in, great job Chris
Use a hair dryer to warm your oil when draining the oil. As well place your new gear oil in warm water before putting it in. Makes life easy. Thats a weird configuration on the drive, my Cat is like the picture in the manual you have.
I do enjoy the maintenance and repair videos! You do an excellent job explaining every detail!! I would say that's hard to believe about the book, but not in today's world!! Thank you for bringing us along, look fwd to more!!
Thank you for the explanation of drain plugs!
Gotta love very vague manuals! You’ve just helped anyone looking on a how to that’s agitated with their manual.
I hope so! Thanks 🙂
Wow very nice 👌 shearing I'm new friend aagr bnana chaho

Same machine same situation. Thanks for clarity.
Use a hair dryer to warm your oil when draining the oil. As well place your new gear oil in warm water before putting it in. Makes life easy. Thats a weird configuration on the drive, my Cat is like the picture in the manual you have.

Thanks. I do try to explain things and make helpful videos to save people some aggravation 😆
@@dehavenfamilyfarm You do very well sir, thank you for that!!
Thanks.😆 Maybe you should get a job reviewing these manuals!
Kubota and Massey must have the same people creating the manuals 😉🙂. I try to let gear boxes drain overnight 👍🏻
LOL You gotta love how much "help" you get from an owners manual! My skidsteer engine oil has to drain overnight because it is so slow.
Is it good to change it on older exacstor that probably never changed 1998year and 4500hours?
*Nice job I need to do mine* #WorldsOkayestFarmer
Thank you! Hopefully your manual has better instructions in it 🤣
Technical writers generally never lay their hands on the product or perform the procedures they're attempting to write about.
I think you're right! 😃
What's be bolt tightening torque ?
Any spec on fluid capacity? Total? And of course there are TWO drive gears, right? Can’t forget to mention the other side as well.
👍👍👏👏
Thank you sir!
Distructions pictures and the Real thing. Rarely match..lol
About as helpful as the weather guessers 😁🤣🤣
@@dehavenfamilyfarm pretty much.. news said mid 80s today.. LMAO 🤣😂 we hit 95 at 1pm😵😵
I have that same excavator,instructions say change at 50 hours is that right time to change 1st time then 250 hours…
Guess the guy that wrote the book never saw the real machine
I don't think he did 🤣
hello
All you guys have Milwaukee tools. I'm jelous 🥺
I love my Milwaukee tools!
