This is my first post, but did alot of reading here and elsewhere to help decide what tractor I wanted to get. I ended up deciding on the 2615 4wd gear shift. I have been pleased with it so far. Only 12 hours of seat time so far. I am using it to cut our small acreage and maintain a long gravel drive.
The other day I was doing some work on the road and after I finished noticed some oil leaked from the vent above the 3PH just behind the seat. It has been doing it since, not alot, but a few drops a minute.
I checked the oil to ensure it wasn't overfilled by lowering the 3PH and checking it after it settled and the level looks good. I am hoping someone may know why this is happening. I spoke with the service department at the dealer I bought from and they said it shouldn't be leaking and told me to check the oil level. It looks fine, so I thought someone here may have seen this before.
Thank you for reading.

It's probably that banjo fitting just in behind the left upper lift arm. Shine a light in there and it will probably look wet. It has a sealing washer and needs to be snugged up on occasion. Do not over tighten!

Thanks for your response. I see where it is coming out of the "vent" in the top of the casing behind the seat. There is a small, curved pipe that fits into the vent hole which is supposed to vent heat/gases? from the case. I thought perhaps the oil "sloshed" inside the casing and may have come out, but it keeps doing it. The service department said it shouldn't, but I am wondering if anyone else has seen this with their tractor, or if anyone knows what could be the cause. Maybe I am paranoid, but didn't expect to be seeing oil coming out for a while. Other than that, everything is working properly. Do you think its possbile that oil can be getting up into the vent and the vented air pushing it out. I can see it bubbling at the opening of the vent.
