CHECKING TRANSMISSION/HYDRAULIC SYSTEM OIL LEVEL

Check the hydro transmission/hydraulic system oil level before each use. NOTE: Check the oil level only while the engine is stopped and the tractor is standing on a level surface.

The oil level sight glass is located in the rear of the transmission housing, just to the right of the rear PTO shaft. Refer to Figure 42.

The oil level is okay if oil can be seen through the sight glass. If the level is below the sight glass, oil must be added to the transmission as follows:

Locate the oil fill plug on the upper right of the rear of the transmission housing. See Figure 42.

Clean the area around the oil fill plug to prevent debris from entering the transmission housing.

Turn the oil fill plug counterclockwise to unscrew from the transmission housing.

Insert a funnel (preferably with a flexible spout) into the fill hole of the transmission housing.

Add Cub Cadet Drive System Plus oil until the oil level can be seen through the sight glass. Do not overfill the transmission.

IMPORTANT: Always use Cub Cadet Drive System Plus oil to ensure correct formulation. Substitute oils could affect performance and may cause damage to the transmission.

Reinsert the oil fill plug into the transmission housing and turn clockwise until tight.

CHANGING THE HYDRO TRANSMISSION AND HYDRAULIC SYSTEM OIL FILTERS

With the exception of the first oil filter change after the 25 hour break-in period, the hydraulic system oil filter should be changed along with the transmission/hydraulic system oil after every 200 hours of operation. The hydro transmission filter should be changed after every 100 hours of operation.

25 Hour Break-In Period Filter Change

During the initial hours of tractor operation, contaminants caused by the normal break-in of internal transmission and hydraulic system components will collect in the oil filters. Because of this, both the hydro transmission and hydraulic system filters should be changed after the first 25 hours of operation.

Hydro Pump Filter — Part No. BS-492392S

Hydraulic System Filter — Part No. 723-3014

NOTE: If a front end loader, or a loader and back- hoe, is installed on the tractor after the first 25 hours of operation, it is recommended that the fil- ters again be changed after the first 25 hours of operation with these attachments installed.

Changing Hydro Transmission Oil Filter

The hydro transmission oil filter should be changed after the first 25 of tractor operation, and after every 100 hours operation.

Stop the tractor engine and lower the mower deck or any other hydraulically lifted implement to the ground.

Slide the seat fully forward; then tilt seat forward.

Through the access hole in the rear fender, clean the area around the hydro transmission oil filter to prevent debris from entering the hydraulic system. Refer to Figure 43.

Stuff shop rags underneath the hydro transmis- sion filter to absorb any lost oil when the filter is removed. Refer to Figure 43.
