Larry,

Thanks so much. This is one of those "why didn't I think of that" situations.

The Advance Autos that take recycled oil aren't local, but the Wal-Mart we usually stop at, and a Pep Boys just down the street from the Wal-Mart are both listed as accepting oil for recycling.

Thanks again,
Knute

P.S. I apologize for hijacking this thread. At the time, it sure seemed like an appropriate question since I'll soon be doing my 50 hour servicing.

Just a question about changing the hydraulic filter --

The 15-series manuals, and several posts above, say to change the hydraulic filter, but not the tranmission fluid during the 50 hour service.

When read that in the manual, I assumed something got lost in the translation to English.

Am I missing something? Can the filter be removed without removing the transmission fluid?

Believe it or not, the filter on the 2615 is removable without draining the fluid. I cannot say about the 2015. Just make sure you have a wide enough drain pan and plenty of rags just in case you decide to try this without definitive information. Bob

My FarmTrac 50 hr service said to just change the hydraulic filter and then change the fluid and filter at 400 hrs. I didn't like the thought of all those break in contaminants circulating around in there so I changed the fluid as well. Not that much money and I felt alot better.
