Using Implements Requiring Large Volumes of Oil

NOTE: Do not add oil to hydraulic system with the engine running.

If additional oil capacity is needed for large one-way cylinders, an optional field installed auxiliary reservoir is available. See your John Deere™ dealer.

IMPORTANT: Removing too much oil can result in malfunction when raising the hitch or using the ”extend” function of SCVs.

Cycle all implement cylinders after starting tractor.

Check the transmission-hydraulic oil level. (See Check Transmission-Hydraulic Oil Level in Daily or 10 Hour Service Section.)

Add oil if necessary.

Lower the implement to return the oil to the reservoir.

Recheck oil level when implement is removed.

Drain excess oil if necessary.
