Sadly, today's engineers don't seem to have a clue as to what their product is supposed to do, and even less idea of how to maintain it. Like putting a grease fitting behind 3 shields that take 4 different size wrenches to access, sometimes daily. Or 3" tall filters with 2" of access. I can go on....

I assume that they want to have a relatively coarse filter to protect the pump and a finer filter to protect the valves. For me that means that the suction filter (before the pumps) should be more coarse and the pressure filter (after the pumps) should be finer. I expected the 80 micron filter before the pumps and the 50 micron would be after the pump.

Our local Kubota did the same for us. Our largest tractor is only 110hp aa we are only a small livestock farm. When we had just lost my dad which I was still trying to come to terms with as one month he was making hay with me and weaning the animals the next he was dead within two weeks of being dianosed with stomach cancer. In those two weeks you could tell who were friends and who were gosspis the former just stated they were sorry ro hear he was in hospital and if we needed any help let them know the others would constantly be messaging coming up with various thoughts and guesses as to why until we said then after losing him it was constantly so what are you going to do with the farm which got to the point mum had got fed up with the constant asking and said its going down to solar panels or her other go to caravans. While my brother who doesn't actually work on the farm was looking up how much it would it would cost to get a wind farm company logo etc embroidered on a jacket and some clothes. Kubota on the other hand did me a solid one of their larger M7 tractors which after the did you see and not even in the ground comments shut them up as it was they were driving it back to their workshop for a customer while trying to work out which sensor was causing it to randomly derate itself they were about to hit rush hour so asked if the could park it up in our yard. After the weekend they ended up getting it fixed and took it back to the customer. But it shut a lot up.
