I just bought a QH12. I am gonna change the hydraulic fluid like you did. I would also install a filter on the hydraulic line. If you could take close up pictures of the filter installation and hydraulic hoses It will be appreciated, or maybe in your next video. Good idea to have installed hinges'. great video thanks
@@JIgginCrappie I have since learned that my hydro filter is inside the tank! From a message board they told me I can clean it and reuse it so I think I am all set.
Nice vid, Bro. I just won one of these, pick it up next week from RB auctions. Seeing what things I need to fix before they break. I already hit TSC for new oil, ordered fans and temp guages from Amazon, looking into a hydraulic fluid cooler, because it regularly hits tripple digits here.
Can u pls tell me where the hoses rout to from the hydraulic filter? One goes to upper hydraulic tank (return line) where does the other line run to? Thanks!
@@JIgginCrappieWhere about on the dipstick is the full mark? My dipstick only has cross hatches on it, no E or F marks. Or is it to be filled level with the fill hole? Thanks in advance
I have a qh 12. Getting to the oil looks like a giant pita and on the qh12 i cant get to the gas on off lever- heck i could hardly find it even knowing where it was.
@JIgginCrappie yeah I just ordered the hose and I'll be doing the hinges this week for sure. I'm not even putting the cover back on till I have the hinges lol

There is another video on my channel that shows the hydraulic filter location
@claudenadeau2216 what parts or kit did you get to add a hydraulic fluid filter? I want to put one on my machine.
Mine was factory. Any place that sells wix filters has the head@@DAS-Videos

Thanks for watching. I recently purchased an oil cooler setup for mine just haven’t got it installed yet. Mine has been a good little machine.
@@JIgginCrappieWhere did you purchase the oil cooler?
@@gun_holsters off amazon

How many hours did you have on the machine when you changed the oil? That engine oil looked pretty dark.
Around a hour
@@JIgginCrappie alrightty then, I’m going to drain all fluids tomorrow, thanks!
Yeah let me know how it looks
Did you use 5-30 or 5-40? Thanks 👍 great videos by the way
Thanks I used 5-30
@@JIgginCrappieHow much oil does it take?
@@JIgginCrappieWalmart Super Tech is probably fine right?
A little over a quart@@DAS-Videos

Best thing to do is put one of those oil change hoses on it. Plus put a hinge on your rear cover so you have access
@JIgginCrappie yeah I just ordered the hose and I'll be doing the hinges this week for sure. I'm not even putting the cover back on till I have the hinges lol
Yeah those bolts are a pain to get to@@Thepreppersbunkeroutdoors
What weight oil did you use?
I used 5-30
How many quarts hydraulic fluid it holds after drained
I drained out close to 2 gallons
@@JIgginCrappie What weight and brand of hydraulic fluid did you use? And do you rec. synthetic oil? What about a straight 30w oil.
@@wny9521Following this string for the same questions.
They could make these more maintnance friendly. I guess they figure they can sell more if people blow off oil changes.
I change mine religiously
