Evening all,
I'm new to this old tractor and combing through the manual to fill my hydraulic system. I was unable to locate the information I needed. I found fluid type and capacity but not where to fill it. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I assume that is the UTB445/FIAT450 DT? If so the filler is under the seat on the left hand side. Mine had a free hydraulic return plumbed into this as well (tee fitting screwed into top of transmission case).
BTW Keep the top of the starter clean, it's under the filters & any drops of diesel there soaked up by chaff & dust is a fire hazard. High resistance on a starter connection & you have a fire started. That's how I lost mine :-((
 
since the hydraulic pump draws the oil from the transmission/rear end if you keep that to the full mark on the dip stick then you'll have the fluid for the
hydraulics.Some of the Fiats have a separate tank for the PS and some draw the oil for the PS out of the rear.
 
Thank you gentlemen. I'm learning this
thing as fast as I can. I worked it hard
over the last few days and the front
bucket was getting slow and jumpy. I
notice oil leaking at rocker shaft and
looks light brown, to me that's possible
water intrusion. So, I'm going to change
fluid and clean filter as recommended by
service manual.
