It's that time again... Filters for the CT230

[DaveK OR]

I know this stuff has been asked before, but it takes a lot of digging through years-old posts to find it. So I'll just ask.

What are the part numbers for the following filters for the Bobcat CT230 (and I suppose the 225 and 235 as well, since they should be the same)?

Engine Oil Filter
Hydraulic Oil Filter
Hydrostatic Filter
Fuel Filter
Air Filter

What would be the corresponding Kioti part numbers for these filters?

What would be any corresponding cross reference number for equivalent aftermarket filters (from, say, NAPA)?

Where is a good place to order these things online? My Bobcat dealer has moved far away, and the Kioti dealer is even farther.


Many thanks in advance!

oil filter 6696286, I use wix 51324

hydraulic 6695913, Kioti t2185-38031

hydrostat 6695914, Kioti t2185-38031

fuel filter 6695912, Kioti 84612-43160, Baldwin PF717

outer air filter 6666333, Baldwin RS3988

I ordered my hydraulic and hydrastat from mowpart. Used the Kioti numbers. Hydraulic was $35.18, Hydrastat $21.92. This was in 2015.

Are you confident these filters have the same micron and flow capacity as the Kioti and Bobcat?

 

[Lockport]

Not at all, but simply that they'll fit. I would suspect, however, that the Baldwin and Donaldson are typical paper media. Probably the Wix, as well. The Kubota may be synthetic media and likely 3x the cost.

Wow First time I have seen cross fit info on the hydro filters. Good to know.

Many thanks again to all with the info on the filters. That goes down in notes in the owners manual.

A related question... how much hydro fluid should I expect to lose when changing the two hydro filters? When I did the first service, I changed out the hydro oil, but this time I won't be doing that until I get over 400 hours, and there seems to be quite a bit of flow when the lower filter is loosened. Do I just need to be quick (and pretty messy), or should I drain the hydro fluid and put it back in when done?

 

[DaveK OR]

An update... I just went ahead and dumped the fluid lost when changing the filters. It took around three quarts to bring the level back up once I was done.

You'd think they could design a system that wasn't quite so messy for filter changes!

Just curious, what brand filters did you go back with?
