Kioti Maintenance

Thanks KOUA!

Now I've got another question... It's been so long since I've done any of this, I can't remember ... I remember I had a hand pump of some type that I used with a 5gal bucket of hydro fluid. Does anyone have a recommendation on a hand pump to fill my tractor with fluid?

Thanks!

Here are a couple of pumps for five gallon buckets that I use, both gear lube and hydraulic fluids. 5 Gallon Oil Pump

Thanks countrybumpkin! I'm going to hit up HF tomorrow to see if they have the pump. If I remember correctly, last time I used one of those red pumps and it was a mess! Still wish I could find it.. I've got to much junk around these days with the kids and what not... I've kids toys stacked up and I can't get to anything to even look.

I used a HF pail pump like shown in post 42. I recommend you have a couple small hose clamps on hand for the clear hose. That hose will leak at both ends with stock clamps (just wire wrap) if you pump vigorously. It takes a lot of strokes but isn't hard and not messy if you re-clamp the hose ends.

Here's the 5-gal bucket pump I recommend. It's sold by Zoro, Grainger's Internet sales affiliate. Excellent quality.
