Hello everyone!
So far it has NOT been a very good day! I was cutting some trees around my pond and pulling them to the burning pile with my John Deere 2520. On the LAST one I put the tractor's emergency brake on and got off to hook up the log. Apparently I did not have the emergency brake fully locked engaged because it popped out when I walked half way down the hill. I wasn't able to hop on and set the brake so my tractor went for a swim.
It sat in the pond for about 20 minutes. The good news is the engine did not go under water, and the transmission was relatively cool since I had only ran the tractor for 15- 20 minutes.
My question is, does the transmission have a vent tube, and if so where is it? I have Googled for the answer but have been unsuccessful. I'm worried that it might have went under water.
Do you think everything will be okay? I JUST changed the transmission fluid last week...Im really hoping no water got in.
I attached a picture that shows how far it went in. At least it is clean now.
Thanks!
