Hydraulic Oil filters L39 Magnets! - Cool!

With so many aftermarket filters physically interchageable with the OEM Kubota filters and even Kubota has sereral filters that fit, I thought it best to stick with the OEM recommended filters. Gald i did, my oil is 1400 hours old and this is the third oil filter change after 1800 hours.. I'll change filters and oil in another 400 hours, as the RP oil lookes like it is getting a little darker than new. Only lost about 1/2 gallon pf oil during filter change.

I like that Kubota places ring magnets in the filters

Did you tilt your tractor or some other trick to limit the fluid loss? Seems like I've read that on a post in the past. I'm ready to change only the filter - always done both fluid and filter at the same time previously. Thanks.

No, Worked quick and caught most of the oil with funnel/ gal jugs
