Yanmar 186D loader hydraulic filter

[suburban99]

Hey all just bought a Yanmar 186D with a KMW loader. Model is K650.
Tractor has a PH8A filter remote mounted for what appears to be the hydraulic system.
I know that a PH8A is a ford motor filter. Is this the proper type of filter for this application?
Here's some pictures. thanks

Nice!! If that's what was on it. Who ever set that up new what they was doing. Not big on Loader manufacturers but looks to be well built!.....

Ph8a will screw on to many hydro systems from what I read but it can bust cause it's burst pressure is not as high as a true hydro filter. I have also heard brought up that point that it can suck it closed internally due to the increased pressure. I would buy a true hydraulic filter for it.

I have the same bush hog. That was before they put the big yellow sticker on it.

I'm not saying remove it today cause you can die in the explosion. Just that when I replaced it I would use a proper hydro filter. It would suck to have a filter bust while you were trying to get a job done on a Saturday.

:laughing: Have to find KMW. Ontario I noticed... A little help but nothing I've found on FEL.. Just go to NAPA and get a Generic match would be safest............. That ones been on there awhile and that little loader not all that much..

I'm thinking that is the original YFL650 loader which was the 'Yanmar' loader for the YM186. The loaders Yanmar used were made in Canada from what I remember. I have not seen any with the KMW brand on them before but it sure looks a lot like (ok... identical to) the YFL650.






The filter setup is just the regular YM186 hydraulic filter.

The filter is on the suction side of the pump so no fear in the filter over pressuring and blowing up. Aaron can correct me but I believe the hydraulic filters should be in the 20 micron area. Using a filter with a small micron rating could lead to starvation of the pump.

I got curious (also own a YM186D) and found Baldwin lists the hydraulic filter for this application: Baldwin B2. Baldwin shows it is a broad-application oil/hydraulic filter.

Then back into NAPA's crossreference table. NAPA's version of B2 is NAPA 1515.

Specs on NAPA's site:
Link: Part Details
including :
Height: 5.197"
Max Flow Rate: 7-9 GPM
Nominal Micron Rating: 21

This seems to be the oil filter widely used by Ford and others '57 to Y2K.

(I see also Baldwin mentions a similar 'short version', and NAPA has a similar '2 quart' version.)
