Getting ready to my 50 hour maintenance so came to TH-cam for some quick tips. Maintenance codes refer to the text on the following pages that tell you how to do the maintenance. I would have called them sections. Look along the top of the following pages and the codes are referenced.
Doing mine this week. Had a hard time finding Rotela T6. For the pin change. ? What did you use for Hydraulic fluid. I’m looking for a synthetic. Royal Purple. But they only sell it in 55 gallon barrels.
Nice video. I have watched several other videos on the 50 Hr. maintenance, getting prepared for my 50 hr. on my CK3510SE. Yours did not seem to leak a lot of hydraulic fluid when removing the filter, but other videos seem to have leaked a whole lot more fluid (quarts). My question is, it looks like the hydraulic/transmission casing has a drain plug at the bottom of the casing? If in fact it is a drain plug, could it not be cleaned up around the plug, then loosened to bleed off some of the hydraulic fluid in a clean container, and then re-used to return to the system? The manual even states there is a drain plug. Although the location is not what I see on my tractor. Just trying to avoid a mess. I have seen others using shop vacuums and pumps to remove an amount of fluid. B. Regards JM
I don't recall needing to drain the entire system but just to swap the filter and top off if you feel the need. Definitely worth looking at the manual to clarify.
@@whatsnext8825 Thanks for the reply. I was not asking or suggesting draining the entire system, just a half gallon or so to help with the outflow and waste of the hydraulic fluid when replacing with the new filter.
Thanks for the great video. It's hard to read the dip sticks all right. I wonder if it would help if we blacken the metal dip sticks ends by bluing or some other method. The plastic dip stick would have to be stained somehow. Anyway thanks for the time and effort you spent on this. 🍻🤠🚜 Paul
The reason you can’t get your camera to focus on the dipstick is that there is far more behind the dipstick for the camera to focus on. If you place your hand (or other object) immediately behind the dipstick it will focus at the closer range you need.
What was that last part you did? Hydraulic fluid? The first 2 filters you changed leaked fluid, do you refill both? One was transmission fluid and one hydraulic? I didn’t see you put any in for the transmission fluid

Great video man!!!
Thanks! Glad you watched it!

I appreciate you watching! Definitely more to these videos than some may understand. I hope you got something out of it. Also thanks for the comment!

Yesss...looking back I definitely knew better lol. Sometimes you just have too much going on at once 😂

This is a good question and now not sure. One only leaked a small amount. The other will continuously leak out until the new filter is installed.
A HST model uses the same oil for hydraulics and HST. Only need to add in one place.
Thanks for confirming. I thought so but had been long enough and wasn't near my tractor.
@@sailorman3 thank you
What were your part numbers?
Did it not show in the video? Thought I took vids of the boxes with numbers.
