B3030
I hate to sound lazy but I want to be sure I have what I need before I get into my 50 hour service.

I will need sockets for 2 oil drain plugs and 4 hydraulic fluid drain plugs and then the wire screen, can anyone confirm the sizes?

Also, the tractor came with a filter wrench, I presume it fits both the oil and hydraulic fluid filters and it will actually turn without interference.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Also, do you guys torque these plugs to specs or just snug them up tight?

I'm not sure of the socket sizes but the aren't that big. Any standard metric socket set should have them.

Also, the B3030 doesn't have a filter screen.

I didn't get an official Kubota filter wrench either, but the filters were easily accessible.

Yup, how do you like that, I actually got a filter wrench, it is an el cheapo stamped/bent metal but it appears to do the job.

No filter screen? On the Messick's "how to" fluids I see that the B7800 has one.

50 hour service was easy; I didn't get no official filter wrench either but my Harbor Freight plier style wrench worked fine. Did get my seat updated thanks to the guys on this site though and what a difference.
