2. Stop engine and wait an additional three minutes before checking oil level.

3. NOTE: Tractor should be on level ground, hitch in the lowered position, engine stopped and transmission in park when checking oil level.

   Oil temperature should be approximately 45°C (113°F). Sight glass observations will be significantly higher with hotter oil temperatures and lower with colder oil.

   Observe oil level in sight glasses at rear of tractor. Oil level should appear at BOTTOM of sight glass (A).

4. IMPORTANT: Oil level below top sight glass can result in power loss and heat generation during transport.

   If oil level is at TOP of sight glass (B), remove filler cap (C) and add hydraulic oil. (See Transmission and Hydraulic Oil in Fuel, Lubricants, and Coolant section.)
