Kubota B7500 transmission filter change.

Hi everyone. I have a B7500 with loader and am having trouble changing the transmission filter on the right hand side if your sitting in the seat. The filter seams to hit a large line which is just off to the side of the filter. I got the old one off but can't get the new filter back on because it hits the large suction line next to it. Do I have to take the suction line off to change the filter. No sure what's going to happen if I remove the large nut holding the line in place. Can anyone help? Thanks

Some what common problem. The large line is you suction pipe to the hydraulic pump. Just loosen the banjo bolt a little and screw on your filter. You should remove the banjo bolt as it has a screen attached to it and clean the screen. Their is an o-ring on each side of the tube to seal it, you should be able to reuse them if you are careful. 1 1/16 socket will fit the banjo bolt.
