My JD 1020 hydraulic system includes the transmission and brakes and is a big system for such a small tractor. The level is checked by a dipstick attached to a small knob on the rear of the right foot platform next to the transmission case. The level should be checked with the tractor running by unscrewing the knob, cleaning off the dipstick, and then reinserting, just resting the knob on top of the housing. I can't remember the exact capacity, but I seem to remember it taking over 5 gallons when I last changed it. If no one else has posted the capacity by tomorrow, I'll look it up in my service manual. By the way, it's a good idea to get these manuals from your JD dealer. There are special techniques applied to maintenance for these tractors. For example, I never would have figured out how to bleed the hydraulic brakes on my own--nothing like an automobile system.

I would also recommend you lower the rockshaft and let the tractor idle 5 minuets, or so. I was surprised at the difference this makes in the dip-stick reading!

Thanks for the response.I have an after market manual seems to tell every thing but the important little things. A great little tractor agreed. Does any one have any photos to share.
