CAUTION
Never overfill the transmission case. Damage
may result if the oil level in the transmission
case is below the “ADD” mark or over the
“FULL” mark of the dipstick. For best results, fill
to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick as opposed
to adding a given quantity of oil. Always check
the level on the dipstick before adding more oil.
Refer to the LUBRICATION TABLE for information
regarding the proper type of oil to add to the
transmission case.
1. Place the tractor on a level surface and engage the
brake pedal lock. Stop the tractor engine and
remove the ignition key.
2. Clean the area around the oil fill plug/dipstick to
prevent debris from entering the transmission

oil fill port.
CAUTION
The oil fill plug/dipstick MUST BE INSTALLED
