Takeuchi TB135 Oil Change - "Drain Connector"?

[ctann]

Hi all,

Gathering the parts for my first service of my 2007 Takeuchi TB135. I was looking at the Owner's Manual, and it calls out the need for a "Drain Connector" (15545-12600) in order to drain the oil. Is this something likely to be stored on the excavator somewhere? I didn't notice one, so I suspect it is missing even if it was there originally (it is an ex rental machine).

I did some web searching, but came up empty. Is this drain connector something I can make up myself? If not, can someone please point me to a source?

Thanks,
Chris.

It's a drain hose connector. You can just remove the adaptor from the block to drain the oil or like others have said, find one from dealer.
