How do you handle a hydraulic fluid change when there is still several gallons in the cylinders of the FEL, log splitter, backhoe, etc? There will still be trapped old fluid in all these cylinders. I just filled the cylinders in my new log splitter and it took over 2 gallons for just that one cylinder. Therefore I assume there is another 8-10 gallons in the FEL and backhoe. That could mean 12 gallons of fluid that will not get changed. Seeing since the tranny itself only holds 4 gallons, that means I am replacing only 33% of the fluid. this does not sound right.
