Hello,

Have been performing the 200 hour service on my L3830. In the maint. chart it says the hydraullic oil filter must be changed. However the hydraullic oil is changed at 400 hours. But when I read the instructions for the filter they indicate the hydraullic fluid must be drained before replacing the filter! In effect I would be changing the fluid every 200 hours. So I am seeking advice on this item. I plan to discuss with the dealer on Monday. However I thought some of you may have already delt with this issue and have an answer.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide me. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

On my L3430 I just changed both filters. You have to be quick, I lost about two or three quarts.
