M2 Questions

J.A.R · Dec 29, 2020

Cleaning up the M2 for storage and noticed after washing it and checking things over looks like I have oil seeping into the antifreeze. Looking into the radiator only owned this unit for this yrs harvest an dont know a whole lot about Gleaners. Question is could it possibly be just the water pump going bad on it. Water is not getting into the oil from what I can tell without sending in a oil sample and runs great. Other Question is my trans lube light comes on after the oil warms up (it is a gear drive), I serviced all the oils in it before harvest and put case ih trans hyd in the trans also cleaned the screen and it makes not odd noises when warmed up. Any ideas greatly appreciated thanks

I think gleaners use automatic transmission fluid in their transmission?

Transmission and final drives use 90 wt EP lubricant, not HyTran. Dexron automatic transmission fluid is used in the hydraulic system.

The engine oil cooler is your most likely suspect.

The hydrostatic drive used a type of automatic trans oil, not the gear drive model.

Looking at my parts books all I'm seeing for the oil cooler is the 2 o rings on either end of the cooler. Is there a way to check the tubes in the cooler for cracks? Local yard wants $500 for a used cooler which is absolutely outrageous..dont think there is gold in them lol.

Never mind solved my own problem

The hydro section of the trans uses the hydraulic system. The gear part of the trans and the standard trans uses allis 821 fluid I did find some 0il at orschens that had that spec.

I thought the allis 821 could cross with say JD Hyguard and the IH hy trans?
