B2601 filter magnet ?

Did the 50 hr service today and was looking at the hydro filters. Both the new and old filters have no magnet. Is this the norm? I thought all the original tractor painted filters had a magnet on the hydro filter.

Magnets IIRC usually on M series, possible on a L but never recalled seeing one.

My original filter that came on the tractor had a magnet but the one I picked up from the dealer to do the 50 hour service did not. After cleaning the magnet, I put it on the new filter.

My b2601 did not have the magnet on the original filter or the replacement filter from Kubota

Ok. Good news as I thought I maybe had an issue with no magnet. Sad day today took the fel off so I can install the front blower. Going to miss that beast. Come on spring time.
