Put a shop vac on the hydraulic fill port before you change the filters. Little to no oil will come out with the filters off.
Or just change the oil. I have never changed a filter and sent dirty oil right through it
@@NittoNba44 my tractor takes 35 gallons. I choose to reuse the fluid and wait to change fluid until when a hose breaks. Happens more often than you'd think.
Samuel Robert thats true, however the manufacturer generally has a good idea of what is required (I know Kubota certainly do) filtered oil shouldn’t be dirty.
@@NittoNba44 very common practice in heavy Deisel
No done much with light duty stuff but even engine oil filters are changed before the engine oil on some cat trucks
Samuel Robert changing the filter between oil changes is how they justify the long oil change intervals, it’s very common in heavy vehicle. It’s filtered oil in the system anyway so it’s not dirty oil at all.
Good info. My dad just bought one of these as his yard tractor on the farm, and glad to hear such a good review.
Grease the front axle pivots every 8 - 12 hrs. Do not miss too many times or the wear will be evident shortly. My coworkers/nightshift would leave it for dayshift. One month later, new pivot bushings, or replace pivots and/or axle housing.
If it is greased. Bulletproof.
Best wishes
One thing that blows my mind about all the mechanics on youtube is something my dad taught me when I was like 5, when adding oil from a new bottle start with the spout up so it can vent properly and not glut and spill everywhere
Came here to say this lol.
If i know im going to use an entire bottle, i poke a hole in the highest part to help it flow
Yep. Another thing so simple yet most people wont do it unless shown.. kind of like the slider on the end of a tape measure that compensates for the difference in length when hooking something vs. pushing it against something, Rich talked about it and hardly anybody in the comments knew that. Out of school I was always with my dad building houses, racecars, fixing tractors, etc. I don't have half the talent he does but I do know a lot of little things like that that help me.
Keep it forever no emmisions make it gold
I got a 1991 B7100 Kubota HST with a frontend loader and a Bush Hog my dad got it new. Besides linkage wearing out and regular maintenance it has been nothing but reliable and trouble free. It is now coming up of 4500 hours and regular maintenance is a huge part of why its lasted so long.
That sandpaper trick blew my mind! How did I never think of that...???
I use valve grinding compound on screw heads that want to strip out.
Liquid sand paper.
Had given me a lot of wins where they said it would need drilled out.
Nathan Brame I really need to try this next time
I usually put sand in the wet filter wrench(the socket looking ones) for xtra grip if the filter is "frozen".
If I can't get it off by hand I'm finding the guy that put it on so he can play the stupid tricks stupid prize game.
You can also use a leather belt, just wrap it around the filter until it catches.
The "clutch" is for the pto so you don't destroy the gears inside the transmission when engaging and disengaging
Hey I actually work as a parts warehouse-man for Kubota tractors! Do you think the prices for the spare parts(original) is high?
I thought spark plugs were part of the 200 hour service. 😂
Adventures for the Masses
Oh please !!!
I have 2000+ hrs on 4 different kubota tractor models from 25hp up to 70hp, love them! Super reliable and stout when you need them
I got a Deere and use loader valve for aux hyd. (If loader isn't used of course). Love DGHD!
@die warlock Thanks for your suggestion! This works fine!
Boy.....
If you pour with the spout on top it'll glug less.
I was about to say the same thing when I seen this
With a quart bottle, sure. Gallon jugs are annoying to do that with. I just use a funnel with gallon jugs.
the later it gets the more rich sounds like peg
That mustang in the background looks beautiful.
We have one of these that cleans up around the hot plant....it runs everyday and I'm pretty sure its NEVER been serviced in 10 years....terrible....as for the bucket tilting slow double check the Q.C fittings on the loader arm...we had one that looked seated but was internally damaged so it restricted oil flow...that was a 7 hour road call bill from the dealer 🙄....dude must have had 17 pressure gauges hooked up to the machine...it looked impressive but I dont think he had a clue as to what he was looking at or for
Is it just me or does the music you’re playing during this video sounds like a firefly episode
I'm a little surprised you dont have a Milwaukee electric grease gun, super handy
Handy as they are, there's a lot of applications that you're never supposed to use one, especially with tractors.
have it, love it
Saw someone comment to pour the oil with the spout on top which I hadn’t thought of. I’ve always poured with the jug sideways so air coming in doesn’t have to go through the oil, a lot easier to have a consistent pour without a “glug” spilling everywhere. Do this for antifreeze, washer fluid and oil when I just need a top up and don’t want to grab a funnel. Love the new channel!
I'm very glad you did a video with one of these. I have 40 acres and I have a L3800. Thinking about upgrading to a tractor this size. Very nice machine.
Kubotas are solid tractors. We've ran several on the family farm. Only issue is that the bigger models are overpowered for what they weigh, and initially they're not cheap to purchase. Aside from that, it's hard to go wrong with one.
Love my 5100 wish I had got hydrostat . Don't know how many engines i overhauled from people blowing out air filters and blowing holes right through them not on tactors but 18 wheelers. Not saying it's wrong just saying you got to know what your doing.
Thanks for doing more Kubota stuff. I'm considering putting a V2403 with a bigger turbo on my Mazda B series. Either that or something light like a saturn ion.
Looks like you can use the m18 grease gun or even the m12 grease gun rich @DGHD
Just a suggestion. Jack the front of the tractor to take the weight off of the pivot points when greasing. This insures grease gets between the load points of the pins and bushings. Hope that helps someone avoid a costly repair.
I have an MX5200 and it is the best all-around tractor I've ever been on. Kubota makes good stuff.
We have a Kubota M5-111 and we have been really pleased with it, touch wood we haven't had any problems with the DEF and it doesn't seem to use masses other than when doing jobs like baling. When working in really dusty the screens on the radiators do plug up pretty quick which can cause it to run hotter but it is a five second job that I just do every morning and if the conditions are really bad after lunch but our Cat TH62 is worse but the water fed transmission is the pig on that as it is not really big enough and has caused the clutch packs to need to be replaced twice really want to scrap that for a separate oil radiator with electric fan but space is tight.
Anyway most annoy thing on the Kubota is the DPF as it always seems to want to regen not when working but either when between fields or when changing settings.
Kinda glad that I saw this as we were looking at a case tractor an it is not cheap or really any better as far as I can see
That Kubota motor oil came in the same jug as Mobil Delvac 1300. Coincidence?
3pt hitch is weak on mx5100, be carfull with loads and vibration. and mine is manual and my clutch is sticking at 300hrs !!!! its a good machine but there are bugs and kubota wont help you!!!
Good old blow Nozzle on a compressor to clean filters works everytime rich @DGHD
May as well check the oil in the tiller while she's in the shop
Watch the foot shuttle. Underneath the black plate on the hump next to the shuttle is a fork and bushing that operates the transmission foward/reverse pump. The bushing has a little clip on it that pops off on occasion, which will let the bushing walk out of the fork. Every now and then pop the plate off, check the clip and give it some grease on the fork and bushing. If it goes you'll have fill reverse but hardly any forward speed.
I'm doing the service on my L3830 tomorrow which is identical to this one. Kubota makes great straight forward tractors. Cheers!
You won't lose much fluid when changing the HST filter, only whats in the filter. The suction filter however runs off the sump. That tractor does have a dry clutch still. New air filters are cheaper than a new engine, replace it.
Dude, you know why Kubota says to drain all the oil to change those filters though it isn’t due for a fluid change for another 200 hours. A significant portion of the owners will take it to a dealer for these early services and then they can charge more for the service. You’re a mechanic, you know better than most how the dealer maintenance racket goes. On cars and trucks, dealers don’t make shit on selling the vehicle, they make money on the services.
“Strong like bull” that cracked me up haha. Never thought I’d hear that outside of my house
I prefer a different orange: Allis Chalmers. Too bad parts are rarer than N95 face masks these days.
I got 5ac and I just got an l3400. But I would never trade it for a hydro
I like the video. I haven’t worked on a tractor in years. The last one that I did work on was the old Case 400 that was on the neighbors farm. I welded up one of the 3 point arms on it. That tractor was 60 years old at that point but started up every time and ran a bush hog every summer. My neighbor taught me so much about wrenching growing up and now here I am 30 years in as a professional wrench, watching a video on working on a tractor choking back the tears thinking of all the memories on the farm.
We have one at my work, she just hit 2000 hours... desperately needs service
So how do you run the hours back on it so your dad doesn't know how much you've been using it.
Drove it backwards in time...duh.
Or just does the maintenance for him, or he just pays 1/2 for the parts etc.
Just put the rear tires up on blocks and run it backwards. I've been told by a friend( Farris Bueller) that it works everytime.
Just disconnect the meter when you borrow it
Hey I just got a bobcat skid loader with a little 3 cylinder diesel Kubota engine does anyone know when I should perform the first oil change I am currently at 10 hours
I would do it at 50. Oil and filter are cheap enough. All the moving parts will have seated by then
Anyone else notice the mustang in the back of the shop?
I saw it too. Be awesome if it was a future project.
It's been there for weeks and you are the first person to comment. It is coming up on the other channel and is one of the best videos to come out in a while.
Oh I’m excited now that looks like a cool project
I seent it as well, it was interesting to see an F word in the shop
Hey I was wondering deutz allis motor f4912 will it fit in a l781 sick loader
What's that Mustang doing in the back??? Cumstang soon?
Grandad has a new Holland tractor (I believe it is a T4-75) it is the biggest pain in the ass to service. One of the two oil drain plugs is behind the hydraulic filter, and to remove the oil filter you either have to remove the whole loader assembly or remove both fuel filters and squeeze your whole arm through a little tiny opening. But besides that it's a good tractor
That's what happens when the engineers aren't forced to work on their own stuff.
"Besides that"? As in, "Besides that, Mrs.Lincoln, how was the play?'"
kubota put their fuel tank cap in the worst spot!!!
That’s a big tractor for 4 to 20 hours
Wheres ur Milwaukee grease gun??¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿you need one
The hour meter are not right on those tractor they only work properly at the right RPM.
Love mine. I have 3 l3301 and a 5400. They are great machines. Been running them since 2010. Those green JD yanmars were breaking to much and cheap little loaders.
Both of the l3301’s have Armstrong grapples with a electric 3rd valve on the loader, works like a charm.
Hook a shop-vac to fill port of hydraulic tank. Then remove your filter. The vacuum will keep most of oil in tank. i used this trick to put drain valves in hydraulic tanks, and block heater into a deer engine.
The front axel build, as I have witnessed...is pure crap. Good luck.
Emissions garbage. You are a man that I 100 percent agree with.
Great video rich @DGHD
No tire shine?
Cool video on the ins and outs of changing oils on a small tractor. It's really curious/ridiculous why engineers can't make a tractor that one can change oil without having to spill it everywhere.
I have an LS tractor. XU6158 C to be exact. Over 100 hrs and no problems. Its New Holland blue. LS makes small New Holland tractors, or used to anyhow. Great tractors that come with 2 aux hydraulics standard for a LOT LESS money than a Kabota. FYI.
If you hook up heavy duty forks to this, can it unload heavy (2000lb) pallets out of a tractor trailer?
Someone probably already commented this but that tractor does have a normal clutch in it
I just bought a used one today,great tractors. Thanks for the service instruction.
I bought a hst 4600 a couple years ago that only had 160 hrs on it . So far I love it !! Parents have a gnarly steep dirt lane. Wanted something 4wd for in the winter
I enjoyed the video... you give good advice :-) The only thing we do differently at work is every time we use a machine at the end of the day we always wash implements or cutting tables and clean the radiator protection and air filters and motor with a air compressor keeping the alternator and starter motor clean removing the dust then we grease all the grease nipples with a grease pump and use WD-40 on anything else that needs to be lubricated...we always do it daily as we are professionals and use our machines very often..
Personally for use of stuff at home if not used for many hours i would think that air cleaning and greasing could only be done once or twice a week.. I agree that maintenance should always be done
Indeed, depends on the work being done, from pre-check in the morn with a squirt and 4-8hrs in again.
minty
You’re a smart guy. One of the best teachers I’ve never had. If they were all like you, so many other’s would know and love mechanics. 💯 all props to u. Would love to meet u. I have so many ideas.
I do not need to know anything about this tractor. I come here to watch sexy man talk about kelomators. 😉
Never knew greasing it while hot is better, there a science behind it?
Not much, other than warm grease will “flow” out of the fitting easier as it is being pushed out by the new grease.
$200 on oil, filters, but another dollar on oil plug gasket/washer will break the bank. Nothing like strippin' threads from a worn out washer/gasket.
B6100hst no power lol hour meter has worked since I owned it
You need a 18V Milwaukee grease gun. And turn the oil bottle 90 degrees over on it's wide side when pouring. This lets the air in so it won't glug and will pour faster.
Dont forget to label the filters with date and # of hours!
We have had for a year and have been very happy with our same platform MX5800 for our 28 acres. The emissions stuff might end up being a PITA but Kubota have made it pretty bulletproof and it hasn't given us any issues to this point. Nice to hear good things about a 200 hour machine.
The hydro filter swap... to prevent major fluid loss I tilt the tractor to the right.... it helps a bit
really like the edits on this video
I learned s imple trick to change an item,, (Blockheater, hose, fitting) that you'll lose fluid from a system,,, Plug the vent,, and put a vacuum on it with a shopvac. that might work for changing that hysat filter too
also works for fuel filter that is gravity supplied that you can't shut off,,, then just bleed the air out
we have a goldoni orchard tractor it ways 2500kg and it's about the same size as that Kubota and it has a 2.9L 75hp JD engine and can lift 2000kg on the 3 point hitch and has a top speed of 40 km/h
Good video I’m Case man but it looks pretty good for servicing
when I did work experience at a Kabota shop I put one of these together from new. I'd recommend checking the bolts are tight on the roll bar, loader and 3 point linkage, quite often they are difficult to get on correctly
Using a blow gun on the air filter hmmmmm 🤔..... highly controversial (even though there's a safety secondary element)
Really love all the DEBOSS GARAGE videos and content, and would love to get 'Bell' reminders for this channel too, however it is 'turned off' on this channel, something to do with "made for kids" category that won't allow the bell notification! Bummer!
Try unsubscribing and subscribing again, others have said the bell works after doing that.
@@DGHD Thank you for replying, and yes that did work just fine, thanks again :-)
On the old tractors, if they work good, don’t smoke, grind, or squeak then you’re good.😂
Hour meters are nice but they just detour a person from getting one that works great & has be reliable for a long time.
Hours without service history scare people away.
the oil spluges less if you pour with the bottle upside down , it sounds crazy but i find it pours faster to if you rotate the bottle 180 from how you were poring it so nozzle ontop of liquid
yes it actually has a real clutch. the hydrostat filte is after the charge pump so you only loose the oil in the galley. the hudaulic filter will dump all but about 3 quarts though. use the loader or jack on the frame to get the weight off the front axle to get the grease in where it needs to go.
a grate video. that is after I got threw the 8 yes 8 adds. RUclips must really hate your channel
That is kind of crazy. We don't have control over how many, sorry. Thanks for watching though
I know it is vary frustrating, the funny thing is of all the channels I do watch it seams your 2 channels are hammered hard with adds
Stab a hole in oil jug itl drain lot faster
Love these Kubota tractors... I have an L3940 which is pretty much the same set up. One issue to be aware of: the cruise control works as long as there is weight on the seat.... meaning you don’t have to be moving to engage it or your foot does not have to be on the hydrostatic pedal. Not a big deal 99% of time but don’t leave your 5 year old on a running machine while you get off for a second to grab something..... you know how learned this...
If the three point is lifted too high, the loader hydraulics will be sluggish
What kind of bush hog is that?
Oil plug washers are seals. You should always change the washers, never reuse them. They are made of copper or brass which work hardens the first time you tighten the bolt. In a pinch you can refurbish the washer and anneal it back to it's soft state. However the washers are so cheap there are really no reasons to reuse the old ones. About two deciliters of oil is the price of a new washer. I've seen substantial leaks from reused washers where people have put in gallons upon gallons of oil, because they reused the plug seal.
Patrik Einarsson not all are copper. Many are just mild steel or zinc and can be reused. Copper is used more frequently on high pressure fittings like hydraulic brakes.
We have one at the shop where I work at right now. It came in because some animal chewed up the wiring harness. They’re not too bad to work on
I am all for a compact tractor as long as it can lift a bale with the 3pt and preferably the loader also except I hate how narrow they make them. and it also has to be high enough to take hay!
Hydrostatic drive tractors make for the best loader tractors!
Terrific, simple, straight forward, comprehensive, very very very HELPFUL!!
Hey Rich, what light did you stick to the boom before replacing the fuel filter at 13:49 ?
Love the video keep up with the great work
Shop vac on the fill port while changing filters will keep you from losing fluid as well
Once you have used a skid loader mounted post hole digger you will never go back to 3 point.
Luckily we have 6' of sand under 2' of topsoil!
Unless you don't have a skid loader
I just got a L4701. Its amazing what you can do.
Kubota tech here. That filter on the side with the step will sometimes leak so it’s best to chisel is a little further once you get it on. There’s spots on the filter for a chisel. When taking off the factory one you have to chisel it off because it’s so tight, so if it’s your first filter change grab a hammer and chisel and it’ll come off. Also with L,M,H if it doesn’t want to go into gear from neutral let the clutch out and rock the hydrostat pedal a little and it should slide right in. These older ones with no emissions are great. Should get plenty of life out of it. Also in regards to the pins on the loader grease them every 10 hours, it even says it on the loader lol
Thx Huntguy. Since you're a Kubota tech, can you recommend a rear-remote hydraulic kit? This video briefly mentions ports on the under side. Would love to install a factory-like kit for a nice fit/finish. I'm wondering if the open slots for non-existing handles on the right driver side are for this (near 3-point height adjust and PTO switch).
@@marcusluce6410 I believe the dealership I worked at ordered remote hydraulic kits from Kubota so those are the only ones I have experience with. Although an aftermarket would most likely be fine as long as the lever and handle look factory since that is the look you’re going after. They aren’t complicated to install unless you have a cab model, those can be a pain. That extra slot is for the remote hydraulics though.
@@huntguy3831 Thank you for getting back. I don't have a cab, so it should be pretty easy. Though, when it's 85+ or 40 and below, I wish I did. And that time I got attacked by bees
@@marcusluce6410 Cab tractors are a lot more but if you’re going to spend serious time in it the cost is undoubtedly worth it. Especially when the bees start attacking you lol
Got a L2501 very similar but smaller, a bit over 200 hours as well. Its awesome, no issues
Good tractor, I have used a similar tractor for years at work, but after using the Kubota, I now own a JD5075 because it is easier to maintain and more reliable for me. I use it for farming (Hay, etc) and snowblowing all winter long and stored outside. (Up here in Cochrane area, my JD needs to be plugged in anything lower than -25C and that is most winter days). But other than the cheap shift lever boots (cracking and allowing water in, but easy fix because jd has drain plugs on them) on the JD, I have had no issues. The Kubota I used work had lots of issues in the cold. Even when plugged in. I prefer operating the Kubotas, but the JD is always more reliable to start and run. (Up here anyways.)
Love you Rich.. still waiting for the DT466 stuff as I have one (low miles on a bus frame) and old F100 cab and box I want to put on it.
Making the video on the dt466 tomorrow
