Art and any other Kubota service person:
Have a new B7800. Rain finally stopped for a few days, sun actually came out. Did 3 hours of fun time. Some Hydraulic fluid leaked at a fitting. Tightened fitting, filled back up with super udt and it's showing over ring on dip stick. Now about half way up dip stick. Do I need to drain some fluid? If so, how is the easiest way?

There are two rings on the dipstick. The fluid level is supposed to be between the two rings. Overfilled fluids is not a good idea as it could retrict the return flow of fluid from the system. Pick the most convenient plug ( see your manual) and drain some fluid a little at a time. ....
