50 hour service

[RalphVa]

I changed the fluids in stages: engine oil at 13 hours, 4wd gear oil at near 50, hydraulic oil at 50 or a bit higher. My used oil container only holds about 13 quarts. By doing in stages, it was enough. Just took it to an auto supply place and emptied it in between.

Hope your manual is accurate. On my 4010, it didn't tell me that one of the rear wheels had to come off to get at the hydraulic filter, which is behind the 3ph bar on which the lower lifts arms rotate from. The maintenance CD does tell that.

I have 1 year old 3320 with 100 hours. I did engine oil change at 50 hours myself. Took it to the dealership at 100 hours for the "100" hour service. All they did was change the engine oil again. Said that's all that is requred.
I have read my owners manual twice. No where does it say to change out "break in" oil or tranny fluid. Am I missing something???

You aren't missing anything. I don't have it in front of me, but under the hood says change the hydro stuff at "a very long time from now". Same with the front axle. I changed the oil and had everything greased. I think I will ump on that other stuff before the manual says to, but not until the machine has a little rest. The trees started falling today.
