Trans oil is due for a change and in getting ready thought to see if there is a sump screen I need to clean. Nothing turned up but I thought it was important enough to ask of the collected wisdom of the TBN. Anybody know?o

Two filters on side of trans in the 7040SU

Book says change filters and ensure magnets are clean. My new filters came with new magnets.

No sump screen on my M7040 that I'm aware of. Filters can be purchased with or without magnets. I buy filters without magnets then just clean & re-use magnets. One needs to drain hyd oil or insert nozzle of an operating shop[ vacuum in oil filler hole to change filters as oil pours out when oil is at full level & filter is loosened.

Thank you both.

I didn't think there was a screen--- in addition to the filters---but I have seen it before. This is my initial 50 hour service and I'm going to change the trans oil as well. The tractor was an unsold holdover and sat outside for well over a year. A oil change after that is cheap money spent, especially with a hydraulic shuttle.
