Check Kubota L3130 Hydraulic Pressure

smittyd3 · Nov 7, 2005

I need to get the hydraulic pressure checked on our L3130. The bucket curl is weak. The dealership is ~50 miles one way so the cost for mileage and service call charge is high.

I want to buy the fitting that is required to check the pressure, but the dealership can't get it.

Where do guys get the fittings to check hyd pressure? I already have a gauge so all I need is the fitting.

Thanks,

Smitty

What kind of fitting is it?

Fittings can be purchased at most any hydraulic repair shop or try online at www.discounthydraulichose.com.

To check my loader pressure I got my gauge, fittings and male end quick coupler at Tractor Supply.
I just uncouple my loader hoses at the quick couplers on the loader control valve and plug in the gauge, check/adjust pressure.

Thanks for the replies.
I think I'll try Tractor Supply.
The Kubota fitting is a PS 3/8 to check the relief valve pressure.
The part number is 07916-50392, but it is no longer available from Kubota.

Thanks,

You just need a 3/8 female T-fitting, a 3/8" female to male fitting, and a 3/8" to 1/4 adaptor for your pressure gauge. Install it right above the quick disconnect where the 3/8" male thread goes into the quick disconnect on your blue boom lift line.

I installed a permanent liquid filled 5,000psi gauge on our L-3130 LA723 loader onto the blue colored line coming out of the hydraulic vavle box, the one responsible for lifting the boom. Works great.
