I am changing my hydraulic fluid / filter and transmission oil for the first time on this tractor (serial #143 470-519). I have the factory aux. valve with a trip bucket on this tractor. If I understand correctly, I can un-hook a hose anywhere in the system to drain it with the tractor running @ idle. Is there a recommended spot to do this so as to minimize air getting into the system? I do have a disconnect at the line from the center port @ the valve which is where the manual says to drain. I'm guessing the previous owner used this as the drain spot. Just wondering what you guys thoughts.
Also, I plan to use a good 80W90 gear oil in the transmission and FVP AW32 Hydraulic oil from Menards. I was a little hesitant about using this cheap hydraulic oil (FVP). Anyone have experience with this stuff? Any opinions on anything would be
appreciated! Thanks in advance!
