JD 60 Powertrol Question

I have a 1956 JD 60 that I had in the shop not running for about a year while I was doing some work to it. When I got it running again last week, and started hauling some bales on the 3-pt., there is a steady stream of oil leaking out from the powertrol when it is under load. It looks to me like it is just leaking from around the head of one of the cap screws that holds the unit to the rear housing. I tried to tighten the bolt but it did not help. Could there be a bad gasket or something to cause this leak. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

According to the "60" service manual, there should be a copper gasket under the upper right-hand capscrew. Ken

Buck:

Not quite sure on a 60, but according to my 70D service manual, the upper right hand cap screw that holds the unit on is in a pressurized oil gallery. They used a special copper washer under that screw to seal it tight.

Now the parts diagram on the 60 (and then 70 !) indicates that it's used on the upper left (flywheel side), so you'll want another opinion from the board, but I'm pretty certain you just have replace that copper washer, or maybe it got mixed up during a previous repair. I think the illustration might be wrong, but the service manuall appears correct.

I just walked out and checked my tractor, and the copper washer is on the upper right (pulley side) bolt.

Buck: Let us know which specific bolt it is.
Also, if oil comes out without the tractor
running. Depending on the bolt, there may be a temporary fix. Amazing what you can do with a
little teflon tape and Permatex. pb
