Thanks for you help.

Bob, please refer to my post #5, and read the instructions carefully. It is all explained. you may have a cap (almost same as bottle cap) on filler plug. Get a vis-grip and twist it off and you see the filler cap exposed. There is a bottom hole fro drain, and a middle hole for level. Open filler cap to allow air in, open lower screw (drain plug) to drain. When done draining, put the drain screw (plug in, open the level screw and fill thru the filler cap, when you start seeing oil spewing from the level hole you're done, that is the right level. put the filler plug in and you are good to go. All I said is also is explained in details in the attached link and copy of owner's manual I provided with my post #5. If you need instruction on how to see earlier posts let us know.

On the right side below your gear shifter there is a plug, that is where you add hyd fluid. Use the search engine of the forum, use my name in the search window and you'll find gobs of information.

JC,
