Hydraulic Reservoir Sight Gauge

A - Hydraulic Reservoir Fill Cap

B - FULL COLD

C - MIN COLD Mark

D - High Volume Takeout Oil Mark

Perform Following Steps For All Tractors

NOTE: Hydraulic oil reservoir does not hold all system hydraulic oil capacity. Transmission and front and rear axles also hold additional system oil. If possible, check oil level prior to first start of day. Ambient temperature should be 7° C. (45° F) or above. Oil level in the reservoir will fluctuate depending upon the volume of oil exchanged with an attached implement.
For applications or implements requiring high volumes of oil transfer (for example - large air seeders or pulling 3 scrapers), hydraulic reservoir can be filled up to High Volume Takeout Oil Mark (D). 58.5 L (15.4 gal) above MIN COLD (C)).

Remove hydraulic oil reservoir fill cap (A) and add hydraulic oil to the reservoir.

Transmission/Hydraulic Reservoir/Axle System Capacities (with Filters)

Transmission/Hydraulic Reservoir/Axle System: (Reference for topping off the system.)

Hydraulic Reservoir Volume Reference Mark:

.. Full Cold Mark.............. 92.7 L (24.5 gal)

.. Min Cold Mark.............. 81.4 L (21.5 gal)

.. High Volume Takeout Oil Mark.............. 140.0 L (37.0 gal)

.. Oil Volume Between ”Min Cold” and “Full Cold” Marks.............. 11.4 L (3 gal)

Transmission Fill Volume:

.. Transmission .............. 37.9 L (10.0 gal)

Transmission/Hydraulic Reservoir/Axles Fill Volume¹:

.. Transmission, 9370/9420/9470, SR Axles².............. 276 L (73.0 gal)

.. Transmission, 9370/9420/9470, SR Axles³.............. 284 L (75.0 gal)

.. Transmission, 9520/9570/9620, DR Axles².............. 220 L (58.0 gal)

.. Transmission, 9520/9570/9620, DR Axles³.............. 227 L (60.0 gal)

See Specifications Section for Additional Specifications

Reinstall and tighten hydraulic reservoir fill cap.
NOTE: Fill transmission with limited quantity of oil to ensure that the transmission lube pump startup is wet. The balance of refill oil has to be added into the hydraulic reservoir.

For Single Reduction Axle Tractors: perform additional steps 34 through 37.

For Double Reduction Axle Tractors: Perform this step 34 to prefill transmission, then proceed to step 38.

Prefill transmission with 37.9 L (10.0 gal.) of John Deere HY-GARD® or JDM J20C oil at transmission fill tube (A).

Remove front axle bleed plug (B) and disconnect rear axle line fitting (C).
Start and set engine speed at 1200 rpm for approximately 5 minutes or until oil is circulated and appears at both front and rear axle ports.
Stop engine and install front axle bleed plug (B) and connect rear axle line fitting (C). Go to next step 38.

Item Measurement Specification

Front Axle Plug Torque 70 N·m (52 lb·ft)

Rear Axle Line Fitting Torque 24 N·m (18 lb·ft)
IMPORTANT: Do not depress brake pedal during this step. If brake pedal is depressed, additional oil flows to axles and result in an inaccurate oil level check.

OIL LEVEL CHECK PROCEDURE:

Perform For All Tractors: Start engine with transmission in PARK and set engine speed at 1200 rpm for 5 minutes.
Shut engine OFF and wait 5 minutes for oil level to stabilize.

Hydraulic Reservoir Sight Gauge

A - Hydraulic Reservoir Fill Cap

B - FULL COLD

C - MIN COLD Mark

D - High Volume Takeout Oil Mark

Check to ensure transmission/hydraulic reservoir/axle oil level is visible between “Min Cold” (C) and “Full Cold” (B) marks in the sight gauge.

NOTE: Volume capacity between “Min Cold” mark (C) and “Full Cold” mark (B) is 11.4 L (3 gal).
If oil level is visible between Min Cold (C) and Full Cold (B), tractor can be used for normal operation.

Identify oil volume required in reservoir until it reaches marks Min Cold (C) or Full Cold (B). If oil level is below (C) in sight gauge, add HY-GARD Hydraulic Oil through reservoir fill cap (A).

NOTE: An exception is implements with large hydraulic cylinders that remove large volumes of oil from tractor hydraulic system. Oil level should be near bottom mark of sight gage with implement positioned to contain maximum amount of oil.

NOTE: Oil level in reservoir will rise as temperature increases.
If low oil level results in pressure drop, a STOP engine light will come on.

Replace the hydraulic oil reservoir vent filter. See REPLACE HYDRAULIC OIL RESERVOIR VENT FILTER in this Section.
IMPORTANT: Excess hydraulic oil can result in decreased engine power and decrease fuel economy.

If oil level is above Full Cold (B) mark, remove enough oil to bring it down to Full Cold mark level.

Recommended method to remove oil is use drain plug under hydraulic oil reservoir and direct oil into a container.
