Oil & Fuel Yearly Maintenance on 1530/ TC30

SpecialED · May 3, 2011

I recently purchased a New Holland 1530 which seems to be the and older version of the TC30. This is my first "bigger" tractor, I love this thing!!

Can someone give me a little advice on what
I should do for the yearly maintenance? I keep her greased up but
would like to know what else I need t do. I purchased a Service
manual but recently realized I probably need to invest in a Maintenance
manual.

Any help/ suggestions will greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Ed

Operators manual is what you want. It will have the service interval infromation you need. Generally tractors and the like are maintaned at hours of use. Fifty hours is normally an interval where some of the oils and filters are changed. Some items need closer attention (air filters in dusty conditions come to mind). You should be able to get an operators manual from your local dealer, if not try Ebay. Greg

Not sure on your tractor, but my TC40D has most of the maintenance list on the inside of the hood. Of course, the owners manual has more thorough info.

This was posted on TBN a while back. I think it was something Messicks provided.

Thanks Robert and Larry!

Larry, I found that PDF very informative.

Take Care guys,

One thing I found interesting, is my previous tract had a dozen or so zerk fittings to grease. My TC40D has more zerk fittings than you can shake a stick at! Which reminds me, today would be a good day to do that

Can anyone elaborate on the part about changing the clutch housing oil? A picture or two would be great if possible.

If you have the hydo model I don't think it's relevent. My factory O&M has a page for it but it covers hydro and gear models.

One thing missing from the pdf is changing the front axle and final drive fluid. Same hydraulic fluid used for everything else.

This crappy PDF shows the front drive and final reduction gear items missing in the above PDF but I added the maintenance charts for the 2 and 4 wheel drive. Hope it helps.
By the way, this was from the OM for a 05 TC30
