Had some small leakage that has since stopped with use. Also if there are any other oil(transmission?) fluids to check. I know about the - engine, air filter, and hydraulics (whats recommended for hydraulics?) Also I had wanted at one time to be able to use a post hole digger with this tractor, but was told its not possible due to the position of the pto. Any thoughts? [Reply]   [No Email]

He used 1/2" x 4" flat stock. A 33 is similar, but will bolt to the transmission housing a little different. The red metal is it. A bit hard to see because we have a log splitter pump on tractor right now. The unpainted angle is part of that and not normally on there. We use the red ears that are welded on horizontally for the center link of the post hole drill. Gets it above the tractor pto. [Reply]  [No Email]

My brother and I just did that on his 44 and mounted my drill on it. Drilled 30 holes with no problem. If I can find the pic of it, I will email it to you. [Reply]  [No Email]

Hope that answers your questions.Engine oil should be 30 wt. [Reply]  [No Email]
