TW10 hydro loss with no leaking

My brother has a TW10 which I have been operating for the past three days. I have used 5 gal in approx 25 hrs to keep the hyd somewhat close to full. Where is all this fluid going with no apparent leak. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, R. Tanck
 
Look harder for the leak.... a bucket of oil doesn't just disappear without some sign.
I'd check carefully around the clutch housing. It may have a front seal leak and it's draining out the housing drain at the cotter pin.
Could also be a dual power leak and it's draining the same way...

Unless you are running stationary equipment a gal. in five hours is not going to be that obvious. Are you running an hydraulically operated implement that may have a leak? I lost a gal. in about two hours pulling the fertilizer spreader a few weeks ago.
 
I will clean the coupler area next time I operate this tractor. It does have a little evidence of slight drip but does not look like 5 gal worth. With his 190xt on same equipment I haven't noticed the loss of fluid
 

Also check the steel lines to the radiator as the hydraulic oil is cooled by the radiator. Check the radiator for leaks also.
