Oil & Fuel Kubota Promo; coupon for hydraulic oil.

[Cahaba Valley Farm]

Don't use it in either of my M9's. I use Chevron All Weather THC Synthetic which is actually a bit more than SUDT anyway. 30 gallons to change both.

Out of curiosity why?

Out of curiosity why?

because it has better cold temperature flowability and it's orange in color unlike Kubota fluid which is clear. Chevron is easier to see on my dipsticks. It gets cold here, real cold, like it is today (15F). I sill always warm the units up when I use them anyway. I'd say with 6K and 3K meter hours on them, I'm doing something right. I also use Shell Rotella T6, 5-40. Engines crank easier in cold temps.

Chevron is hard to get for most people but my jobber is a Chevron distributor, Shell too.

If I owned hydrostatic units, I'd only use Kubota SUDT but all mine are gear drive.

That makes sense.

If you don't mind me asking where you located?

Why?

You need to order the coupon based on your tractor size. Small B, BX, LX get $10 off of One 5 gallon bucket of Kubota UDT or Super UDT2 hydraulic fluid - Bigger tractors can get 2 for L models or 3 buckets for M (Excluding M7)... I was going to buy it anyway, why not save some dough?

Kubota Parts Coupon for Hydraulic oil

Just received an E-Mail with Kubota UDT2 discount authorization, for 2 five gallon pails.

To apply, I was required to include my tractor model and serial number, apparently for Kubota to ascertain just how many 5 gallon pails I should be entitled to for discounting.
I have an L48 TLB, which according to the manual needs 15 gallons.
They sent me authorization for only 2 five gallon pails.
Are they suggesting that I only should only change 2/3 of the SUDT2?:mur:

You’ll be lucky to drain 10 gallons out without individually purging the cylinders. A dry system might take 15.

Thank you for that!
