Hyd. oil in a 1466

I bought another 1466 in febuary and when checking things out when I got it home I noticed the transmission oil looked like it had some 80/90 gear oil mixed in it. Hyd's all work good and putting out 2300 psi. Getting ready to change oil and pulled the filter out today and it's black. Thinking now this might be the original oil in it. How can I get this old oil all out of it? The tractor does not have a TA. I know there is one drain plug under the rear end above the drawbar and one under the transmission. Will these two plugs get all that oil out of it?
 
I think that there is a total of 5 drain plugs. I pulled the plugs on my brother's 1066 but they told me where they were and I just removed them. If I remember right in addition to the two that you mentioned there is one on the bottom of each rear axle housing. Don't remember where the 5th one is. Seems like it takes 25 gallons to re-fill. Some farmers put 30 gallons in so that they don't lose hydraulics on steep hills.
 
My 966 has drain plugs in all places mentioned plus one under the clutch.After pulling all 5 plugs it took 25 gal to refill it.
