- Kubota L3130HST w/LA723 loader
I ran my L3130 this summer at temps near 100 with out any problems with SUDT. Whether it was filled at the factory or not it certainly did not have SUDT in when I changed it at 50 hours. There was a world of difference in the smoothness with which it ran after the fluid change. The only negaive was that hydraulic leak down was slightly more.
I personally think that the dealer filled the tractor and if so it would have been NH fluid since that was all he stocked at the time, he now has UDT but SUDT is special order.

Hmm, not sure what happened to the rest of the message.
Didn't mean to hijack the thread either.
I did clean and inspect the sump screen at 50 hours, though it had only a couple very small shavings or whatever on it.
The salesman happened to stop by this afternoon as he saw me in the driveway and was interested in how things were working. Wouldn't you know, I put the loader on, the fluid was nice and hot as I had just cut the neighbors grass (Sears garden tractor wouldn't run) and the problem wouldn't happen. His comment was maybe a piece of trash got in the system when I hooked up the loader and caused a relief valve or something to stick or not close all the way. He did agree that things shouldn't act like that and said if it happens again, to call him and he would send a service tech out, or he would come himself and look for the problem. He also said the 3 point may leak down when there is some weight on it, the fluid is hot and the engine is off. A friend with a larger kubota (forget the model) said the same thing. That his leaks down in a few minutes with hot fluid after using the tiller if he leaves it up and shuts the engine off.
Anyway, everything seems back to normal now and if it happens again and I find the reason I will post what the cause was.
