B-21 Changing fluids...

[Jamo54]

Hi All,
I bought my well used B-21 last summer and it's time to change the fluids. I'd like to do all the fluids. I have a Kubota dealer close enough that I'll go there to buy the filters, but do you guys recommend I buy the fluids there as well? I'm not against doing that as this will be my first time messing with it. If I should deviate from the original, please let me know. It's at least 20 years old with probably well over 1200 hours. The hour meter is stuck at about 600 and the PO said it's double that.
Thanks for any help. The Kubota saved my hide last winter as we got 300" of snow and my JD 425 w/blower went down in early winter. All is good now though, and ready for another...

Most people buy their hydraulic oil from Kubota. Many buy engine oil from other sources. Rotella T-6 synthetic 15-40 is a popular choice for engine oil. Tractor Supply tends to have it on sale quite frequently. Kubota dealers also sell good engine oil too. It comes down to convenience and cost.

Thanks BAP. I'm thinking they might have advice on what to use with an older machine like mine. Maybe next time I'll move on to TS or Walmart for my Rotella...

I'm with @BAP - use the K hydraulic oil and filters ......... Rotella T6 for engine
