Where does the HyTrans fluid go in an IH240?

Posted by Rick on March 02, 2001 at 13:09:32 from (207.18.199.124):

I'm about to tear down the hydraulic control valve to fix a leak. I'm new to this so I have a couple of questions before I start.
First, Where do I fill the system with fluid? I disassembled the filter assembly, but not sure how to add fluid. Also, how do I know when I've added enough fluid?
Second, what is the capacity of the hydraulic system? I don't even know how much fluid I should buy.
I have good downward pressure on the hitch, and very little, or no upward pressure. Looks like I have a leak at one of the gaskets in the control valve. I'm hoping this is the only problem. Has anyone seen similar problems?
As always, any direction or advice will be appreciated.

Rick,
