L3200 w/ LA524 loader UDT level?

   / L3200 w/ LA524 loader UDT level? #11  
I just finished doing the 400 hr service on my l3940 and over filled the hydro a bit ( yes I have a dipstick )

Thought before I drained off my fresh SUDT2 fluid I would ask how serious is it for a hydro to be a bit over full. This isn't like a crankcase where the crankshaft and rods would be spanking into it causing foaming issues.

FYI SUDT2 is noticeable better than the Mobil 424 I had used at the 50 hour...

Thanks

Slightly over full isn't going to hurt anything.
And agreed on the SUDT2 being better than any oil out there!

I was actually serious about unscrewing the sight glass. You would remove the 4 screws that retain the large metal cover plate. and then you would have access to the sight glass.. It unscrews. It is just plastic, so be careful with it. but if you started to unscrew it and fluid leaked out the threads, you would know that it is overful.. However the other suggestions of parking it on a hill sound like an easier course of action.
