Hey all,
Thank you for your prior help - tomorrow I get to spend a day with this tractor and I'm going to replace some or all of the oils. I'm not clear from the user manual (if I have the right one - not sure) for the 1975 3000 Tractor. First, I was told it was a '75 but the grill is a '65 - anyway, I'll verify by serial number tomorrow. But I'm not sure it matters much for the oil anyway. So, here's what the manual says:
Transmission: SAE20W/30 - really? Same thing that goes into the engine oil?
Rear Axle: "as manual transmission" meaning, the same thing as above? SAW 20W/30?
Power Steering? What should I use?
This tractor is in California, in a warm climate that just doesn't freeze. Normal temps are about 50-90F and this machine is used for mowing.
Any clarity on what oil types I should use - and how much - would be most appreciated!
Thanks!
