All-
I'm still pretty far away from the 50-hour service (only have 1 weekend/10 hours so far) but wanted to run something the dealer told me by existing Kioti owners.
When I picked up the tractor I was told to change engine oil & filter at 50 hours, as well as both hydraulic system filters (no other service to transmission/hydraulic system). I was also told that I "would probably never need to change front axle oil".
Looking at the Kioti manual last night it's pretty clear that the manufacturer recommends changing engine oil, hydraulic fluid, front axle, and all filters at 50 hours (with 4 filters and 15+ gallons of lube this looks to be a pretty lengthy job, but probably cheap insurance in the long term).
Obviously I trust Kioti's recommendations over the dealer, but I was hoping others would be willing to share what service they performed at the 50-hour mark.
Thanks,
Trey
