I had the hydro on my 656 gasser replaced with a Herr's rebuilt about a year ago and they told me to change the oil after about 50 hours. I wasn't sure how to drain the tranny so I did some searches on the interweb and found a post from a guy who said the easiest way to drain the oil was to plug a hose into one of the hydraulic outlets and pull the lever open until all the oil was pumped out into a barrel. Less messy than trying to drain it out of a drain plug underneath. Will this work and will it get all the oil out or will there still be some oil that needs to drain through the plug? Also, where is the drain plug underneath the tractor? I know there is a cover on the right side of the tractor that has to come off to change the filter and there is another small spin on filter in front of the foot and inch pedal that needs to be replaced. Anything else I need to do when I change the oil?
