HiSun Axis 500 Break-In Service


Recommended Posts

I was reading through the owner's manual that the initial break-in service was 50 miles.  Besides an Engine Oil and Oil Filter change, are any other other fluids (final drive, differential) scheduled for replacement for this initial break-in service?  Anyone got any maintenance schedules on how often to change the oil and fluids?

It's probably worth replacing both front and rear axles. They don't take much fluid. I would also plan on checking various fasteners and going thru the full grease routine. My Coleman 400 (Hisun) came greased, albeit very lightly. If you haven't greased all the zerks they're definitely due. They also recommend the valve lash be checked at the first service. I've read several reports of tight-to-0 valve lash on new models off the factory floor.

 

Not sure on the 500, but the 550 service manual is available from the downloads section, and has a good table of service hours as well as detailed procedures for each service, including the more technical ones missing from the user manual. I believe all the various hisun models (aside from, the kids 250s) use the same service schedule, and have the same basic parts layouts.

      I installed an electric coolant temp gauge and volt gauge today. The oil pressure gauge I ordered had a bad sending unit. So once the replacement arrives. I'll add that install to the post. The I used a 22mm temp radiator adapter.

      1/8 " NTP x 1/8 NTP adapter.

      And an electric temp gauge.

       
      Had to take a drill and drill bit to enlarge the 1/8 NTP adapter to allow the temp sending unit to pass thru. Another user on the forum enlarged the 1/8 NTP hole in the 22mm radiator to 1/4 NTP and used a 1/4 NTP x 1/8 NTP reducer. Either way would work. Both has it challenges. And both accomplished the same thing. To get the sending unit just barely in the coolant. If you just put the sending unit in. IMO it just blocks too much of the coolant flow.
      I didn't get a pic of how far the sending unit protrudes into the rad adapter. But it wasn't a lot. And also since it an electric gauge the sending unit needed to be grounded. But since there wasn't a place on the temp radiator adapter. I used a clamp to secure a ground/negative wires to the temp sending unit. The gauge wiring was simple. The gauge's wiring harness had a red, green, and black wire. Red goes to a positive. Black to a negative. Green to the sending unit. Since I had some 18 AGW speaker wire. I used that to run to the sending unit. Red to green, black to black. 
      Then another piece of the speaker wire from the gauge to power source. I tapped into the 12V power outlet on the dash. (Just as I did for the overhead fan.)
      Then used a 2" hole saw to cut into the plastic above what I'd call the radio door.



      The gauge goes to about 174° F then the radiator fan kicks on. Cools down to about 150° F and kicks off. Now the lowest the temp gauge will read is 104° when you first start the machine. That is the nature of the gauge. Even says so on the web page. So I'll just have to live with it.
      The voltage gauge
      .
      Was simple to install. Just a positive and negative wire to connect.  Tapped into the 12V power outlet on the dash.

      My 2018 XG-850-SL starter died yesterday. The old part number from Kubota is E7153-11732 which has been superceed by part # EG881-63010. I am looking for an aftermarket starter because the Kubota retail price for the starter starts at $550 and upwards toward $850.  If anyone has gone down this road before and has found an aftermarket starter ~ please share with me. We own a ranch and this thing is used every single day and is sorely missed when it is down for maintenance.  Kind Regards, ~ Stan

      I have the factory service manual available for the Buck 400. Just send me a message with your email and I'll get it to you. Although there is no charge for this, it would be great if  you would visit my website where you could donate any amount to help do things like this with others who need it. Again, there is no charge for this manual, and no obligation to donate. But if you did, I would thank you for sure. Have fun on the trails. www.warriorsoffroad.com

      Such a simple task and I can't do it.  The repair manual is of no use.
      I removed all the plastic fasteners  from the engine housing and the back end lifts up about 3/4" .  Something is holding the front near the cup holders.  I'm afraid to use much force for fear of breaking something.
       
      Help please!!
