The dealer just did the initial 50 hr service on my 3040. They changed the engine oil, engine filter and hydraulic filter. They did this at no charge wich I am very thankfull for. When they delivered the tractor a year ago part of the paper work was a pre-delivery check list which included this service. I was looking at my owner's manual today and it states to change the hydraulic/trans as well as the front axle oil during the intial 50hr. My question is should I change the hyd and axle fluid my self? I am leaning that way but wanted to get input from people that have already been through this. Also what type of fluid should go in the hyd/trans - just UTF? And what about the axle 80W90?
