Hello I purchased a Bobcat T300 from 2008 and 180 hours it's like new ,but is very rusty 
The problem is that the equipment has been stored for 4-5 years in unsuitable conditions in a yard in rain,sun, snow,etc. Now that I bought it and the summer comes, I decided to put it on the feet and make a complete overhaul including minor touches to paint because is very rusty. Before I start it I've changed: - Hydraulic oil (was dark brown) - Engine oil (look's like black honey) - Air filters (were rusty) - Hydraulic filter HF (was rusty) - Diesel filter (was rusty) - Engine oil filter (was rusty) - Hydraulic oil filter fan - The battery (it was completely dry, unusable) - I clean all electrical connections with spray for cleaning disc brakes because the on-board looks like a Christmas tree ), all contacts were oxidized. - I changed the alternator belt (there were visible cracks on it) - I changed the antifreeze fluid (have water instead of antifreeze) Now all the errors and the dashboard lights went out and the whole thing is ok. All joints were stuck and i had to pull the pins out and clean them of rust, had no trace of grease, now the problem is solved tracks were weak and had to tense them but the grease point were rusty and had to change them . Now i need your help for some problems. 1. I must change the oil in final drive and i do not find the procedure and the amount of oil for them! 2. The belt tensioner that involve the hydraulics is squeaky, i must change roller/belt kit or it's ok? 3. I measured alternator voltage and i have constant 12.06-12.08 volts is this normal? As I know it should be above 13 to 13.5 volts! 4. How do I remove air from the engine cooling system? Is there a vent somewhere? 5. Can someone help me with a service manual for this Bobcat T300 / 2008/ pin*532 040 486* Engine: Kubota V3300-T 3.3 liters. 6. I could not change more than 28 liters of hydraulic oil, there is a procedure for changing the entire amount of oil? Except risky procedure true AUX sistem. Thank you in advance and excuse my bad english. Sincerely Bogdan
