changed hydraulic fluid a while back. Tried to save a few bucks and used a off brand fluid and filter. Tractor didn't perform as well. Shuttered at times and fluid seemed to heat up more. Recently I took my backhoe off and put my box blade on. After about 20 minutes the 3 point lift just quit. I had plenty of fluid. After a lot of time trouble shooting I decided to change the fluid and filter using Kubota stuff. Fired it up and everything works perfectly. I'm not sure what the problem was, all I know is it now works. Will stick with the Kubota brand from now on.

Thanks for telling us about your experience. Others on OTT have commented about and swear by using good quality fluids and parts and your story affirms the importance of that.
Personally, I believe in using Kubota stuff. Why risk the investment.
