change engine oil too?- and I would recommend Rotella T6 for diesels

Filter via Kubota

Drain plug on tranny - then pull the screen - I will tell you - if you pull the screen WHILE draining.......flo will be mo! ;):) Again - I would place S-Udt2 in there too.

How many hours? Ought to change fluid in front end too!

YES YES as Brother Hokie said,, and dont forget to clean the screen too,if yours is like mine I found some stuff in the filter, AND DONT LOOSE THE LITTLE PARTS..dont ask
And refill with Super Udt2, you will notice a difference in the whine on the BX,shhhhh it gets quieter....

I use M1 Diesel oil , but use what ever color you like as long as it meets the specs. But there are guys that swear by Amsoil
And while your down its a good time to grease everything up and you might as well drain the front end and refill with SUDT2. Grease the fittings onthe mower deck check the belt and sharpen the blades,, a fun week end :)
