I got a YM2200 that has been sitting for 5 yrs and need my butt kicked but it was left outside. I want to drain the transmission, hydraulics, oil in engine and diesel fuel before I start it up. It was parked due to steering problems so I expect everything to function correctly when started.

I use Rotella 15-40 in the engine. I think 303 would be correct for the hydraulics. Does 303 also go in the transmission? How much does each one take? I want to be sure to have enough when I go to refill everything. Somewhere I think I read 7.5 qts of oil for engine if changing filter. Is this correct? How much 303 in hydraulics? How much fluid in tranny? I know I will fill each to proper dipstick reading but want a general idea as to how much to buy.

I plan to drain everything and let it sit for a day or so with plugs out to allow the sludge to drain complete. Anything else I need to do as a safety precaution? And yes, it WILL go under the shelter after I get it all fired up....lol. Didn't have a shelter 5 yrs ago.

Thanks in advance for all of your help. This forum is great for us DIY people.

don't know about you'er 2200. But my 3110 only takes 5.8 gallons in the hyd/ trans. (which is the same fluid). my oil capacity is only 6.8 qts. I buy hyd/trans fluid 5-10 gal at a time

Thanks Kenmac for your reply. I am not familiar enough with your tractor to know if it would be the same as mine. So many tractors and each seems to be a little different. But thank you for your efforts and concern.

Thanks Ken, just wanted to be sure before I put the wrong type in it. Easier to do it right the first time.
