I am restoring a 1960 Case 830 gas tractor with Case-o-matic and an Eagle hitch. I drained the hydraulic fluids via the 3 drain plugs (aprox. 9 gal). The manaual calls to flush the system with fuel. I filled the tourque converter case with 6 gallons of gas, expecting the gas to also enter the 5 foot section (6480A) behind it and the Eagle hitch case behind that. Wrong, wrong, wrong. The fuel never left the torque converter case. I found a fill plug up high on the Eage hitch that alowed me to flush that area. I have minor and major questions. The minor question is how do you flush the housing immediately behind the torque converter case? There is no obvious fill plug. The major question is what is the step by step method of refilling the tractor? Do I dump 6 gallons in and then start the tractor up briefly, and then add some more, repeating the procedure until the dip stick says full? The last thing I want to do is damage the tractor by runnng it with some hydraulic areas dry. The manual says nothiing about the fill procedure. The hydraulics work perfectly.
