Massimo Oil Change on T-Boss! Oil capacity is 2 quarts on the 550. In order to change it, I recommend a flexible hose funnel. The dipstick is fairly hard to get to, but it's definitely doable! Save yourself a bunch of money and do it yourself!

As others have said, thanks for showing what really happens when doing an oil change on these machines.

I have the T-Boss 550 and this video was very, very helpful. My unit came directly from the assembly plant in Texas and arrived without engine oil which I found when I inspected off the flatbed. So I checked all my fluids and the plug on the gear box was way over torqued also. I will see how the filter goes in a few days (first oil change). Yah, I had a few words for where that oil dip stick is! I will be armed with a funnel with a hose (THANKS). I am 76YO, so maybe I will die beffore I have to do serious work on this machine, but they sure did not make servicing a priority in their design. Again, thanks, this really helped. BTW, I have the operating and service manual and they never give a part number for the filter.

Thank you for demonstrating the real life issues that happen with an oil change. Videos that make it look easy are bs. This was real 😁

Thanks! It was an interesting learning experience, to say the least, lol

Enjoyed the raw instead of edited. I learned from this. Great tip of using hose for a extension.

Great Video, helped so much on my initial Tboss 550 Oil Change - Bought a funnel with a long 2 ft bendable hose as suggested and worked like a charm, though I still enjoyed your frustrating comments, LOL.

The best funnel for these is the tube that comes with a jug of DEF they use in diesels. You can also take the valve cover off, and pour the oil in there. Thanks for the video!

Hello! Great video! At how many km do you change the oil? What about the air filter and gasoline filter? Thank you!

Have the dealer check the drain plug and filter and retorque so the first oil change is fun, not weird.

I have the 560 TBoss which is the same SxS essentially. You need a stainless steel long flexible funnel to reach that dipstick/fill port. I have no idea why they build things like this????

These are definitely odd to work on and a lot of that is because the engine is a clone of one that was in an ATV. That dipstick location drives me nuts lol. If you do a google search you will find free service manuals which will have all the info you need. Also, Massimo is selling these kits with the incorrect oil weight. Unfortunately they know next to nothing about their own product. The manufacturer (Linhai) calls for a 15W40.. I suggest following it in the future, your wet clutch will thank you!

Interesting. Are you a dealer? Do you see issues with leaking axles?

@funvalleymotorsports4559 9 ай бұрын

@@DirtbagOutdoors Yes we are a dealer/service center, however we have stopped purchasing units from them because they screwed us on almost $2K worth of warranty claims. As far as the axles go, pretty sure every T-Boss 550 we've ever sold developed oil leaks on one or both sides of the rear differential. Something you can do to help prevent those seals from going so quick is put a little slit in the end of the accordion looking diff vent tube to allow the building pressure to escape.

@@funvalleymotorsports4559 oh man. Not ideal. My axle seal started leaking again. I’m not a happy camper. It would be different if there were readily available parts and service centers. I won’t buy another.

Very poor design by the manufacturer. I was thinking about getting one, but now am not so sure. If they can't get a simple thing like an oil change right so it is easy to do, what else did they mess up. Thank you for the video. It really opened my eyes.

@DirtbagOutdoors Жыл бұрын

Thanks! Im not familiar with other brands, so i dont know if this is common or not. If a name brand was just a bit more, i would go with the name brand. If it's a lot more, the massimo would come back on the list. I got a great deal, so it was worth it for me to go massimo and deal with small issues

@@DirtbagOutdoors Thank you for your insite. I am not much of a mechanic. Never really liked working on vehicles. I can fix most things in the home, just not on a vehicle. I could do the oil change, but the other problem you had, I would not have been able to trouble shoot it. I have looked at these and do agree the price for what you get is awesome. Just no one here dealers here to work on the hard stuff.

This whole machine screams designed by a non mechanic, been working on it at work and just getting to a switch in the dash was a 1 hour task... Not looking forward to the rest of the maintenance.

@DirtbagOutdoors Жыл бұрын

I agree. I have no reverse lights now. Im actually not sure they ever worked. It looks like im going to have to disassemble damn near the entire thing to figure it out.
