Everything Needed for 50 hr Service?

[Hdoilcan]

My dealer is including everything needed for me to do the 50 hr service in the price I'm paying for my new L3540. What should I expect to receive for this such as filters and fluids ect?

'Per the manual', Engine oil filter, engine oil, HST oil filter, hydraulic oil filter. You will want some SUDT2 to top off hydraulic system after filter change. Plus, check your front axle, they all seem to be a little low after use. Philip.

The 50 hour is really pretty easy, it's covered in your manual and here is something I found handy on the first couple of times I serviced ours.

Kubota L-40 Series Service

My dealer gave me all the filters and fluid for the 50 hr service as well. It's a great way to learn a little more about your gear as well as save some bucks by DIY.

if your dealer gives you everything for your 50hr service.your looking at $700 more or less.

No. Per the manual, for the GrandL series, only the filters I listed above are required for 50 hour service. No fluids except engine oil are required. If you want to do more, that is up to you.

$700 sounds high. At my 50 hour service, I elected to change ALL filters (including air and fuel filters) and replace ALL fluids. That cost me $162 for Kubota filters, $285 for SUDT, and $50 for 5w-40 enigne oil. That came up to $497.

your filters an air filers must be cheaper at your dealer.because on my old mx5100hst all of that cost me close to $700.if i got everything.

Just did my 50 hour service on my L4400( 4 years old with 47 hours) I purchased the hydraulic filter at Kubota, but got the oil filter from Donaldson and the oil from Caterpillar.

We'll this is what the dealer gave me today...... I will show the the prices that are listed on the invoice even tho it was included in the cost of the tractor.

Engine Oil Filter $15.34
Hydraulic Fluid Filter $54.32
Hydrostatic Oil Filter $75.44
Fuel Filter $5.31
2 gallons 10w-30 Engine Oil $25.49 each
2 Gallons Super UDT2 Trans/Hydro Fluid $28.49 each

Total $258.37

My L3940 took 11.4 gallons in the HST, and 1.8 gallons in the front axle. I assume you are getting 2 gallons to top off the front axle (they show low after an hour or 2 of work), and to top off HST after filter replacement. Philip.

 

[Hdoilcan]

When we decided on the 50hr service to be included we agreed to what was due at the 50hrs and the front axle and hst wasn't listed at that time (50hrs) but yes he included 2 gallons for hst filter change. He said I would have to change the hst filter on the fly therefore the need to top it off. We really didn't discuss anything about the axle fluid and it already has a few hours on it so I'll call and make sure he checks it before delivery..... Although he did say they will check all fluids before it leaves there INCLUDING a full tank of diesel

this has been changing. Since we not have SUDT2 fills from the factory, you no longer have to change the fluid @ 50 hours. Its filters only.

Hydrostatic Oil Filter $75.44

FYI for the future. We charge $62 for that one.
