Going to do the hst trans and hydraulic filter and oil change. Is there a screen somewhere I need to clean while the fluid is out?

Your tractor does not have a suction screen.

Thanks guys. this is my second fluid change and I could not remember if it had the screen or not. I couldn't find it on the parts breakdown either.

I know the consensus is there is no screen in the hydraulic system of the L3130's or GL30's, but I've found a thread from 2007 on another tractor forum where it hints there may have been one.

I won't post the link here in the event it violates forum rules, but did send a private message to the OP with the link.

The link has a picture of the screen and a listing from the parts manual depicting it.

I haven't researched this further, but planed on looking for it on my L3130 the next time it's due for a fluid change.

I'll be happy to forward the link via private message or you can google L3130 screen Aug 12 2007 and it will be one of the first hits.

Thanks for that info. I have no problems with HST or hydraulics, but doing an 800 hour fluids change. I'll look around for where this screen is and probably pull it out and clean it.

The other site has a picture showing a screen from a L4130 parts book which he happens to have. All of the Kubota portals I have access to do not show an L4130.
Maybe an Australian thing.

A L3130 does not have a suction screen anywhere on or in its hydraulic system.
