Hello everyone,
I purchased a 1974 IH 2400A not long ago and after going over it briefly with the previous owner, "who didn't have it long" I didn't get the full understanding of the transmission and hydraulic system. (forgive my ignorance) I am new to tractors. He said the dipstick on the floor near my foot was the gear box and the hydraulic fluid reservior. Is this correct "Please"?
I don't have any manuals on this and finding info is slim pickings. There is a tube behind the seat he explained that is where the fill is. Now, I know simple hydraulics from splitters and some small tractors I've driven, is this fluid AW 32 or different. I purchased this machine for helping me do some light clearing on my land for building down the road. I just purchased new tires for it and the machine runs wonderfully. It has the D-179 and it's fresh oil and filter change. I would greatly appreciate any input/help please. I know these are few and far between but I know there some of you folks know them inside and out!
Thanks, Dave
