Almost forgot the dealer gave me these nice pruners today. He had just got them from ups while I was there . And he knew I have just planted a bunch of peach trees 600 of them so he throw in some pruners .

It's an expensive service that's for sure 17 gallons of hydro in mine. Just wish I had been warned ahead of time I woke up on the floor in front of the parts counter after they told me the cost of fluids and filters

yeah the full service on the 7040s is high.we changed the oil on my 7040SU 2 months ago when it had 110hrs on it.i traded some kubota filters when i traded for the 7040SU.the oil alone cost $75.an i havent changed the hydro oil yet.now it has about 130hrs on it.n i traded for it in july 2013.

After changing the hydraulic oil on mine at 50 hours and filters I wouldn't want to delay that change the amount of metal fines on the filter magnets was borderline alarming. Did the filters again at 300 hours and still had a fair amount on the magnets but not nearly as much.

I'd also do the front axle as well if you haven't it I saw lots of shinny flakes coming out of mine.
