No shop vac.

No shop vac.

Thanks! I guess I'll skip changing it all then. 200 bucks in fluid. I hope following the manual is a safe bet. It says change just filter at 100 hours.

I just changed mine today. No shop vac, took off the old one and replaced it with a new one. More fluid stayed in the filter than was lost from the tractor side.

I changed my filter on the 5075e without the shop vac and lost maybe 1 or 2 quarts max.

Is this all that came out, or all the came out before you screwed the new filter on?

5055D
Just changed it and followed the instructions. No reference in those for a shop vac. I did not even have to add fluid. Sight glass still full.

A - Transmission-Hydraulic Oil Filter

Remove filter (A). Apply a film of oil to new gasket and install new filter. Hand tighten plus 1/2 turn.


Run engine several seconds and recheck transmission-hydraulic oil level.

Add transmission fluid if required. (See Fuels, Lubricants and Coolant section.)

Great!
No screen to clean?

There is a hydraulic pick-up screen on the 5055d, but the manual says to do that at 1200 hours. I cleaned the one on my 5210 at 600 hours and it needed it. Must admit I did not see any change in how the hydraulics operated after to changing the fluid/filter and cleaning the screen.

5115m just changed the hydro filter at 160 hours. Used a shop vac and could hear the oil gurgling with filter off. Would guess oil would have been gushing out without the vac?
Interesting to see a few metal shavings sitting in the bottom of the filter. Guessing some left over machining chips.
