International 500 D hydrolic oil information

I have a 1966 International 500 D dozer and i am trying to find out how much hydrolic oil the resevoir hold and also the weight of the oil..Have tried many places and no one seems to know much about the internationals 500 D :) :) :)
 

Sorry I can"t help you much. Hopefully someone with IH 500 series experience will be along.

In looking to see if I could spot anything to help you. I couldn't find anything on a 500 D. The 500 replaced the T340A and TD340A in 1965, 1969 saw the 500C replace the 500, 1974 the C was replaced by the E, and the E ended in 1978. So it would appear yours is a 500. Are saying D for diesel? If so I suggest saying diesel, not just D as that can be confused with a series of a model in many cases. If you haven't, confirm your model and the year by serial number. I suggest eBay and other on line searches to find an Operator's Manual and a copy of the Service Manual you can get for reference. I have gotten some good used OEM manuals from eBay. Others here may know of other sources for your manuals. I did see this when looking on eBay, no guarantee the info is correct for your crawler.

I used aw46 hydraulic oil in my 500C--don't remember the volume but always kept an extra 5 gal on hand in case i blew a hose
 
IH likes to use Hytran fluid in all their units. I would use that (expensive) or use a generic that meets
the Hytran specs, available at Tractor Supply or other places. Good luck
 
I always used HYtran in the transmission on the 500c, and Cat to4 oil in the Cat transmissions, but regular hydraulic oil in all the hydraulic systems
 
(quoted from post at 22:21:58 05/19/20) any chance that you can send me a inhanced copy of this info I cannot make out the writing because the print is so small

Sorry, I can't send you an enhanced copy. As I posted, I came across it for sale on eBay while looking for manual sources for you. If its still there you could buy it. Search International 500 crawler manuals.
 
on my 500 there is a dip stick on top of transmission cover and a fill plug and i thinking there is also a dip stick back under the seat how much but fill full if it has a dip[ stick with good grade hyd fluid i use hy guard ..and i do have some parts for the 500 td5 tractors
 
On your 500 c does it have one resivoir for the transmission and the resivoir oil together.....on my 500d i have only one drain plug on the bottom pan....Dip stick is under the seat..none on the transmission..I am in doubt about what weight oil goes into the machine....does the oil lubricate the transmission and the hydralic system to from the same resevoir aany help would be greatly appreciated
 

1965 - International 500 replaced the International T-340 Series A and TD-340 Series A
1969 - 500C replaced the 500
1974 - 500E replaced the 500C
1978 - 500E discontinued

No 500D here. You posted yours is a 1968 machine. 1968 is a 500, no letter suffix. If it has a diesel engine it would be a 500 diesel.
 
there is only one dip stick its on top of transmission loos like a tall bold head the hyd returns to the to ring and gear so it all the hyd and transmission are the same as i went look at the two transmission housing i have one is a gear drive the other one has a torque converter on it i try posts pic
