Changing Transmission-Hydraulic Oil

Put the tractor on level ground and run the engine to warm oil.

Stop the engine and remove drain plugs (A) on bottom of differential case and transmission housing.

Reinstall plugs after oil has drained. (See Clean Transmission Filter Screen, Clean Hydraulic Oil Suction Screen and Drain Clean Oil Reservoir.)

Refill with Transmission-Hydraulic oil specified in Fuels, Lubricants, and Coolant Section.

IMPORTANT: Powershift control unit must be recalibrated when changing oil from one viscosity to another. See your John Deere Dealer.
