Kubota M62 - Serivce
Finally got my materials together to do a service on the new-to-us but 2018 M62 Kubota backhoe. Since I was pulling all the body off the engine finding out that the doghouse panels are missing clips and are tie-wired on. I upgraded to racing zipties. I replaced some old-looking Kubota filters on this machine. I dumped the little 9-quart engine, which actually has 2 drain plugs, because the front driveshaft is running right up the middle of the oil pan. Boy, it's tough to spin off the filter when you can't find your oil filter wrenches. Mark found them for me. Fuel filter: no problem with a filter wrench. That one seems to need to be pretty tight to keep it from weeping and hard starts. Air filters: there are two filters, an inner and an outer filter. I just opted for full replacements of all filters. Am I waiting till after the 4th of July to run to Lewiston for some UDT2 fluid for Kubota, unless anyone knows of something better? Locally, no one sells the Kubota UDT2 fluid. I've called and looked in different shops, even at the shops that service equipment.
I love the built in jacks. ๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐
