I have a JD 520 that runs good and I would like to change all the fluids in this tractor so I do not burn something up. First I need to know what type of fluid is needed for each system and how to check all the fluid levels. I do have an IT manual for this tractor but this information is not included. They do mention capacities like 4 1/2 gallons for the cooling system,7 quarts crankcase oil, 16 quarts for transmission and differential, 4 quarts for thr powershaft clutch (what is this?, 10 quarts for the powr-trol (what is this?), 1 quart for the first reduction gear cover, and 5 quarts for the power steering. There is no directions on how to check these levels. I am confused. I thought the power steering fluid was supplied by the transmission. Where is the power steering reservoir?

I need to knowhow to check each reservoir and what type of fluid to use.
