indiana said:For the first 50 hour service of the 6500, the dealer changed engine oil and oil filter plus the two fuel filters (filters A$27.50 each). In the handbook the routine service schedule also recommends the following must be done at 50 hours
change transmission oil
clean transmission strainer
replace power steering filter element
PS According to the handbook, the hydraulic oil should be changed every 12 months/1000 hours whichever is the sooner for the 00 series
I'm not sure but I believe the 00 series tractors don't require trans oil change at 50 hours.....I have the service manual and I changed my trans oil at about 225hrs (I think it calls for 250--don't quote me, as I'm doing this from memory). There are a few discrepancies from the operators manual to the service manual...I believe the 1000 hours is correct for the hydraulic fluid. BobG in VA
