I havent had a Green Tractor very long but man does it sound good running! I need to know where the check plugs and fill plugs are on my 50 JD A. I think I have figured the power troll system out but need help on the rear end and the engine oil. I think I know where the fill location is on the engine oil but tell me anyway to be sure. A picture would be great if anyone has one.

Thanks,

Butch

You might want to drain those cases just for good measure. When I pulled the plugs under our '52 A I got three gallons of condensate water out of the gearboxes.

The crankcase oil filler is on the top of the primary reduction cover, just above the belt pulley. Looks like a pipe cap. The engine oil test cock is just below the belt pulley. Open the valve with a wrench, (3/4") and fill the crankcase until oil starts to drip.

The transmission/differential use the same oil, but it has two drain plugs. Both are under the belly of the transmission/differential. One is a square head pipe plug, and the other is a recessed plug that takes a 3/4" square drive.
To get all the oil out, you need to remove both plugs. To check the oil level in the trans/diff, remove the pipe cap just to the right of the PTO shaft. Looks like another pipe cap. Fill it until it is almost full. Some use 90 weight gear lube and some use 140 weight lube. Depends on the climate and personal choice. Engine holds 11 quarts of oil plus 1 for the filter. Trans/diff holds about seven gallons. Hope this helps. Have Fun!
