Farmall C PTO

[GLEE01]

Just bought a Farmall C. Checked the oil level in the PTO and it seems to be low. May sound like a silly question but does this fill area require hydraulic fluid or gear oil? The tractor does have factory hydraulics for the front cultivators. Thanks for any input.

90 Wt., same as the differential.

Thanks DJ. I have newer tractors that of course use hydraulic fluid for everything. Just wanted to make sure. I'm loving this site so far.

Sir, you have a Super C vice a "C"...you can tell by the space between the hydraulic block and the fuel tank (C's tank almost touches the hydraulic block...Super C has about a 2-3 inch space between...also the clutch and brake peddles on the Super C are "curved" whereas the C's are straight...hopefully your tractor still has its serial # plate (will be on the left side of the tool box (under your seat)..the serial for Super C's starts with FC 100001. The super c was made from '51 till '54...great tractors...PS: the PTO gear oil is the same as the trans/diff. You will find a small plug on the right rear differential housing about 1/2 up. you fill from the "plug" on the operator's platform (near the gearshift lever). If you change the whole trans gear oil, it will take just at 5 gallons....good luck. BobG in VA
