I am getting ready to do the 50 hr service on my 1533, and have some questions. Can I leave the backhoe and loader on? If I do, does that change the amount of hydraulic fluid to add back in? Does the dealer add more than the 8.2 gallons when the loader and hoe are added, or does the tractor already have enough fluid to run these?
thank you
you can leave both on. It makes it a little harder to get to stuff, not impossible. When implements are first installed, extra fluid is added to fill the void of the empty cylinders, after that the fluid gets cycled through. You should be right around that 8 gallons, give or take for what position the cylinders are in.
fyi - there is an error in the owners manual. The hyd/trans fluid should be changed every 300 hours after the first 5 hour service. I believe the owners manual says every 150 hours.
