Dumb question: where do I fill the hydraulic oil at. No obvious port that I can find.

Thanks

Plate that is/was leaking with 2 levers. Fill to about 1 inch below top, put cover back on.

At least by the time the M670s got here MM created an easier way. At the right rear corner of the hydraulic box there is a drain plug. The M670s came with a short nipple in the case and a tee on the nipple one side of the tee pointing down was a plug for a drain and the other side of the tee was about a 6 inch pipe pointing up. At the top of the pipe was a cap with a dipstick. I have modified a couple of M5s to this configuration. Just eyeball the level in the pipe and the top of the hydraulic case. If you add a 45 degree street ell to the drain side you can get the drained oil away from the tractor better. All three quarter inch pipe works for this.
