Recently purchased B5100d. Love the little beast. Runs great at 1100 hours.
Has an older Kwik Way loader that works great. I have downloaded operating
and service manuals from Kubota Books. Now here is the question. Loader
return line is plumbed into the hydraulic fluid fill port. Located in operating manual where hydraulic fluid dipsick should be located (in manual picture looks
like a small plug on side of transmission case) do not see anything except small bolt at this location. Is this bolt a level check point (similar to sight glass for hydraulic fluid??? Also not sure where to add fluid if I can determine fluid is low. Kwik way loader appears to have a fill plug on top of its frame. Did not know if this was used to fill hydraulic fluid??? Hopefully wont have to
remove loader plumbing to add fluid. Definitely want to check fluid level
before adding.
Reason wanting to check fluid is tractor has small leak at one back wheel
on axle end. Bad seal?? How hard is this seal to replace. Did not see any
direction for this in service manual. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Would love to hear from other b5100 fans.
