So I did a water separator screen and a fuel filter replacement on a kx-040-4 mini. After bleeding the air out of the fuel system. I turn the engine on noticed bubble and what looks like a stream turning on the top of the fuel separator. The mini run just fine I just didn't know if thats normal or there's air in the system. Again thank you.
I usually run them 4k to 5k hours about when they are needing new undercarriage. My first 2 040's I traded in at 2k hrs my salesman made me deals I couldn't refuse to get into new ones.
A few things are easier A couple things are a little harder. The ac is belt is way easier on the 040's. I have had several 121's and they were all very good machines. Thanks for watching and have a great evening.
First they last much longer, I have gotten over 5000 hrs out of a set, they add weight to the machine for stability, don't kick off as easy and in my opinion get better traction. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful day 😊
So Kubota says the hydraulic oil capacity is 17.7 gallons, when you change the oil how much do you actually end up putting in? I did mine today and really only needed about 13 or so, I'm guessing there's a bunch of extra oil still in the lines and the rams?
you just made servicing our KXO40-0 so much easier. Thanks for the amazing video!
You are very welcome, thank you for watching 🙂
Thanks for the video, ready to tackle our hyd service on our kx040-4 now. Was wondering where those filters went lol, thanks again!

@John G if it is running fine you are good. It has to purge the last little bit of air out on its own. It's not leaking on the outside is it?
Doing my 50hr service tomorrow, weather permitting. Engine Oil, filter and final drives.
It's not that bad. It's actually fairly easy.
Thank you
🙂👍
I still can't find a metric adjustable wrench😢but I did find a Left handed Pipe wrench 👍
Metric adjustable wrenches are very rare indeed. 😉
Great informative video. About how many hours on the kx40 before you start thinking about getting a new one?

The serviceability on my old kx 121-3 isn’t bad but it looks like they have improved quite a bit on the 040

Why do you prefer steel tracks over rubber.?? Ant advantage.?

No it doesn't take the 17.7 and you are correct there is oil held up in the in the system. Thank you for watching and have a wonderful evening 😊
