service time

[woodmills1]

first off thanks kiohio for the parts, will soon contact for more

finally got some nicer weather so I could catch up on my service duties on the 3054. 575 hours on the meter and some hard working snow pushing this winter. Oil, fuel, front axle, and hydraulic changes with filters and fluids, and grease job. didn't realize she wasn't making full power, but sure noticed the return to original after the service. Posting this so I can help you remember to treat your hard working Kioti's to some fresh fluids and filters.

two other things to remember.
There is a mesh screen in front of the radiator, and mine gets loaded up pretty quick, though it may be just because I have a cooler for the hydraulics in front of it. If you have one clean it off to stay at the correct operating temp.
While you are at it check the bolts that support the front axel where they fasten to the frame. Mine were loose and one was backing its way out. Would have been catastrophic, not to mention the play in the front end that was there.

James,
If I get to mowing heavy or high field grass,I often need to clean the hood screens and radiator screens several times a day.
I added a hydraulc top link on the 3 point last year which made a big differance when using the box blade.
I'm now working on a second set of remotes and a hydraulic cylinder for the tilt.
I do go over my tractors looking for anything loose or broke, but the axle support is something I did not look at. I'll check it out !
