Thank you. I have supposedly 1500hrs on a TB016 just ordered all seven filters. Whats the drain over to the right (underneath) . Looks like coolant but nothing came out yet radiator and reservoir are full. Subbed.
I have not played with the coolant on this one so couldn't say for sure. They have made them easy enough to work on tho which is good. 016 is a good machine
@@ProdigyPlantHire "easy enough", eh? Not easy for me (complete novice in retirement, got it to "play" after getting a pro to do drainage. Changing a hose underneath in the belly where you can't get a spanner on other than 45° angle. Spent £200 on different spanners (inc. 2 sets of crow's feet, Wera Jokers, etc.). Latest is waiting for delivery of 10mm black plasticky return/drain tube from drive motor; a ball ache finding out the problem, hours trying to source the $%#@ thing. €50 delivered. Could have cobbled something, glueing an O ring to the failing olive-type plastic, but who wants to risk losing another 25 litres of hydraulic flui. No question mark needed! Glad you're happy with yours!
Hi, tricky without the pipe. You might be able to remove the sump plug and then gently push a screwdriver in to open the seal up and let the oil out. Go careful tho as the oil would be hot and would take some time to come out. Have a look on ebay or Takeuchi dealers as I'm sure the pipre wont be expensive 👍
@@ProdigyPlantHire Thanks. I read that you can also unscrew the plug that's in the sump, so essentially it drains like a regular oil pan, then just put the plug back in after.
Really good tutorial!

@johncollins8304 ah right, that doesn't sound like fun. Hope you get it sorted
How do we do it if we don’t have the drain pipe?

Not sure if that can be done but worth a try
I just got one from Heads Motor Japan for =£30 delivered. One from Germany was more than that without postage.
