I just bought a new L 2502, and was having a chat about it on a forum, and one of the members mentioned that I should immediately check and fill the front axle fluid because dealers don't necessarily top them off correctly. The procedure apparently involves filling to the weep hole (as you demonstrated in your video), and then drive the tractor around to allow the fluid to work down to the portals, then top it off again. It may take repeating these steps a few times to get it topped off correctly. My tractor gets delivered on Friday, and this will be the first thing I do to it.
I've heard that as well, I checked mine after about 5 hours of use after this service and it was exactly where I left it so I didn't need to add any. Enjoy the new tractor!
Glad I could help, I have a whole playlist on maintenance on Kubota tractors that will walk you through every single service point. I also have one long video that groups them all together!
Thanks for the video! I have to do this on my M6040 later. Where are you from? I saw the Lamb and Webster sticker on your machine. I’m from Corning area and used to go to lamb and Webster in woodhull. It was bought out last year
Hopefully it helps! I’m in western NY as well! Obviously you gathered that from the sticker, but momma told me not to tell strangers on the internet where I live! Thanks for watching!
Really appreciate your camera work and showing the locations clearly....thanks
Sarcasm is tough to interpret via the internet, so I’ll assume you’re being genuine…you’re welcome.
@EverythingElliott as I was writing it that thought came to mind...no it was genuine....after watching 2 others that were not as clear...I was stoked
@@PahaPoniesSpanishMustangs glad I could help!

I have the L4760 and I jacked one side of the axle up to get the flat interior of the axle case to drain quicker. Still long though
She’s got some thick oil in er no doubt about that
Good job !!
Thanks for watching! Hope it helped

No I don’t, you should be able to find it on a parts diagram on messicks
