I have a 1970's 656 utility tractor with loader. The T/A is stuck in high which is not uncommon from what I hear. I just recently purchased this tractor from a gentlemen who is known for keeping excellent care of his machinery. However the hydraulic oil is low, must be a leak......
Questions....
1) When I check the "oil" by my feet/below the seat is that for everything, minus the engine. Meaning is that telling the oil level for hydraulics, rear end, transmission?
2) Is that where I put the oil in?
3) What oil do I use?
4) The current level of the oil, according to that dip stick is "low". Would that be causing the PTO to "slip" under load? I am pulling a 6' rhino finish mower through 8" grass.
5) Also, just today I noticed a knocking noise under my left foot when the PTO was running under load. Oil level related?
Thanks a ton! If I need to give better more detailed info please let me know.
