CK3510 HST first oil change?

[L47TLBwannabe]

I've got the manual but its a little confusing I'm at about 40 hours and have a large pasture to bush hog (30 acres). So from what the chart in the manuel shows I do an oil change at 50 hours but does this include the fuel filter? And what are the regular oil change intervals for these tractors?

The manual for the CK10SE models is not very good. According to my manual, at 50 hours you change the engine oil & filter & the hydraulic filters. You do not have to change the hydraulic oil.

Every 100 hours change the engine oil & filter.
Every 200 hours, change the hydraulic filters.
Every 400 hours, change the hydraulic oil.

Here is a link to a video that goes over some of the service on the CK10SE models. Although Kioti must have updated the manuals, because he keeps saying everything is in the manual.

I have a Kubota and can tell you the 50 hour first oil change instructions for your Kioti are the same as Kubota. I see no surprises there.

I'd take it out and mow. You can change the oil when you get done. I'd change the fuel filter every time you change the engine oil, or at least once a year. On my equipment, I change the oil, oil filter, and fuel filter every year. Pretty cheap peace of mind.

Except that the fuel filter for the CK10 series is $62. Operator's manual says to change it at 200 hrs, so I'm going to wait.

BTW, the NX series uses the same filter.

Well the big mowing job fell through I'm not surprised though. We had some really dry weather up until recently so farmers have been hard up for hay. The lady texted me that a neighbor offered to cut and bail her pasture for free so can't compete with that but it also saves me from having to source a car hauler or skid-steer type trailer. But I have a small job tomorrow spreading some rocky pit run gravel for a friend. By the way if anybody is interested in buying a lightly used 24" stump grinder let me know I'm not getting any work for mine sadly and it works quite well.

To get to the 200 hour mark, I usually remove water sensor and let it drain into an empty coffee can for all the heavy sludge and debris empty out.
Also get a teaspoon of water.
Peace of mind for an OCD owner.....heh...

Had not occurred to me to do that! OCD or not, it sounds like a good idea. Did you actually get heavy sludge from it on your NX?

No sir, normal drain reveals little water, bout tablespoon if that.
Some dark drops of yuck stuff not enough for a 1/4 teaspoon but whatever comes out, am thinking has to be a good thing. ha....
Oh, I do open the fill vent so air gets in and has a good fast drain.
To refill after sensor reinstall I use the manual pump. The turn key on long enough to make sure fuel filter housing is full, shut air vent turn key off.
Then crank it up and let her run for a very moments to make sure its all good.

On edit: I do use power service gray bottle and the algae formula, the white bottle on each tank fill up. Maybe that is actually helping or a placebo effect...but I want to believe.....lol.....
