Hi TBN'ers,
In doing the Super UDT2 fluid change on my Kubota B2620, I added 3 3/4 gallons of the new fluid. The capacity calls for 4 gallons. Thinking that I could top it off later, that seemed like the way to go.
The Suction filter and the HST filter were replaced at this time. I let the two bolts drain over night. Having run it till warm, now, when I check the stick, the level is a couple inches over the running level on the stick.
My questions are: Can I run it for awhile at this overfill level without doing any damage? Will the fluid reading settle somewhat as I run it? Or should I just drain some of the new fluid down to the level on the cold stick? I kinda hate to drain some fluid and then starting adding fluid later as it settles.
Cheers,
Mike
