I know it should be intuitively obvious but I am not quite sure how to check the hydrolic (I know I can't spell it) fluid. I lost some when working on my loader and need to see how much to put back in.

On my 675 there is a dipstick behind the seat just up and right of the pto output shaft.

On my 555 there is a plug by my right foot while sitting on it. You add fluid where the previous poster said his dip stick is. Add fluid until it comes out the hole.

I will check tomorrow. It's 10 p.m. right now. However, I do remember that my return for the Hyd fluid is right behind the seat where one would expect the dipstick to be. I am sure I will have to remove it to add fluid. Most likely I will see the plug you are referring to in the morning. Thanks for both your replies.

Yep Clint, that's where mine is too. Thanks.

To make life easier I will just use a little hand pump and pump fluid into that hole, especially if the back hoe is on
