OPERATION 55

Change the Hydraulic Oil

To drain the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic reservoir, use the following procedure:

Run the tractor to warm up the hydraulic system, and collapse all external remote cylinders or 3-point hitch lift cylinders to decrease the amount of oil remaining in the hydraulic system when the oil is drained.

Remove the drain plug, 1, from the bottom of the hydraulic reservoir tank under the front frame of the tractor. Allow all the oil to drain from the reservoir.

Replace the plug and tighten securely. Refill the reservoir to the proper level as indicated on the sight gauge. Restart the tractor. Extend any remote mounted cylinders and 3-point hitch lift cylinders and recheck the oil level. Add oil as necessary.
