I am sure it has been addressed on this forum before, but my search failed to turn up exactly what I was looking for, and I am sure someone knows the answer off the top of their head.
I have a MF 20 Industrial loader that appears to be low on transmission fluid. I found via search of this forum that I should use Permatran or equivalent, but was wondering what the overall capacity is, and how full to fill it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
PS I have manuals ordered but that doesn't help me today!
 
There should be a dipstick at your right heel, when seated on the
tractor and the fill location should be through the left side plug, on
the top of the transmission, next to the shift levers if it's like all the
others (30B, 40B, 135 etc). Never seen one so, not sure. Also, if
similar, which I'm sure it is, I think it takes about 6-8 gallons. If it
has a 3pt and you're changing trans oil, change the 3pt pump filter
too, since it uses the same oil supply. I found it easier to replace
than clean.
 
I have the complete manual for the 30E and it also covers the 20D Industrial. Transmission holds a max of 8.61 US gallons (Permatran) which is added at the left of transmission by gear shift levers. Dipstick should be to lower right behind your right foot if you have the shuttle shift pedals.
 
Cool, thanks guys. I remembered from another previous post something about a dipstick, but couldn't remember where or even which fluid reservoir the post was discussing. I will just be topping it off for now...trying to get it in working condition, then will change all fluids this spring. Thanks for the help!
