this model should have a fill plug for the trans/rearend and a fill and drain out on each rear hub in the planetary area . These should all take standard
Hytran fluid. If the brakes are making noise or feel like they are grabbing when driving, I would check the brake linkage first. My 20F had the same problem,
thought the pto was going out while brush hogging. Upon further inspection, the brake linkage pivot pins and the arm trunions on both brackets bolting to the rear
end were froze tight. It would apply the brakes but never release them. At this point they would get hot from friction and the tractor would start to jump as they
grabbed. I ended up tearing both sides apart and drilling the pivot pins out and sandblasting all of the parts clean. The diff lock is also part of the right brake
and that was also froze. Agco had the gaskets for the housing and they were'nt much, pins were a little more.
My tractor was a road tractor with a front broom in its former life. The underneath and inside of the cab look like a salt mine. I am slowly cleaning
or replacing all of the pivots under mine. Adding some zerk fittings to the brake brackets didn't hurt either
Can anyone point me to these fill and drain plugs?
Thanks
