I used gravity and a bucket full of dirt to get some of the oil out of the cylinders. Parked left rear wheel on edge of dirt pile to tip the tank to the left side. Front wheels are lower too. I filled front bucket and rear bucket with dirt T5C changing hydraulic oil.jpg. If you have a 2004 T5C you will learn there is no hydraulic drain plug. I Removed hose clamp to pump and had a container under tractor to catch oil. Removed filter, before I lowered front bucket a little, just enough to get it to dump. Dropped front arms to ground. Dropped the rear curl , dumped rear bucket, then put the rest of the boom. Stepped on stabilizer while holding up on the stabilizer control lever.

It took about 6+ gallons to fill it up.
