Change the Transmission Oil
To drain the transmission oil, use the following
procedure based on the type of transmission the
tractor is equipped with.
Quad Shift III Transmission - Operate the tractor
a sufficient amount of time to warm up the
transmission oil. Remove the drain plug, 1, from
the transmission housing and allow the oil to
drain into a pan.
Replace the drain plug and tighten. Refill the
transmission with new oil through the fill tube to
the proper level as indicated by the sight gauge.

Quad Shift III transmissions equipped with a
PTO option will not have a drain plug on the
transmission. A PTO lubrication hose, 1, will be
installed into the drain port. Loosen the hose and
allow the hose to drain from the transmission.
Replace the hose and tighten.
Figure 3-82

If the tractor is equipped with the PTO option, the
PTO clutch housing will also require draining. To
do this, remove the hose, 1, from the bottom of
the clutch housing and allow the oil to drain from
the clutch. Reattach the hose after the oil is
removed. Tighten the hose fitting.
