I picked up my fluids and filters for the 50 hour service on my L5030HST a few days ago. The tractor has 53 hours on it, and I need to do about 10 hours of blade and tiller work with it in the next week.
I was prepared to do the service today and tomorrow, but the owner's manual is missing. I have looked in every place I can think of, but likely left it somewhere between the farm, home, and work.
Since I would not be able to get a new manual for at least 10 days, I plan to change the engine oil in the next couple of days without the manual. I'm not experienced with tractor service, but I did do the 50 hour service on my father's 7610 a month ago, so I am hoping it is not much different.
Any advice from 5030 owners on location of all drain plugs or other things I should be aware of. Previous threads on the 7610 service helped a lot when it came time to do that one.
