I own a 530 CK gas/backhoe with the Case O Matic transmission. The tractor has developed a hydraulic leak between the transmission and the engine bell housing. I only use the tractor around the house and didn't mind adding 5 gals. or so of TCH fluid during the summer but now the transmission is leaking at a faster rate.

My question is how involved is it to repair the leak or should I start looking for a replacement tractor. Other then the leak the tractor runs fine and I kind of like having it around.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I got the same configuration 530. I took the axle wishbone rear support part off, before I learned what this thing called Caseomatic was all about, and surprise!!! I got soaked with oil. It wasn't long after that I figured that spending the bucks for the IT book would be a good investment. Anyhow, the support piece, item #42 on page 108-109 of the parts book, Case part #A 35573, has gaskets on the top and aft side, made of cork. You know what happens to them with age. That is the first place to look for the leak. I put gaskets back in mine as they were in the engine gasket set. I was not a fun deal as you have to compress the gaskets in two directions at once. Next one I do, I will give real thought to using RTV on at least one surface. There may be a need for the gasket on one surface for spacing the support piece, not real sure of that.

Also, the starter for the C-o-m had a seal between the drive and armature. Just assume the starter runs in oil and RTV the housing to the ends. My starter did leak after the restoration but I sealed it and it is dry now. I had put the starter together before I had gotten the book and learned that that housing was the oil sump for the c-o-m. Should be a simple fix and then you can go back to havin' fun with the 530!!

Mine leaks there too. I guess yours is leaking
really bad at this point. I was thinking of
using a can of that building foam. I think the tractor has to be split to actually
replace that gasket. Mine is a slow leak so
I haven't bothered with it yet.

Yes you have to split the tractor at the engine and replace the gasket it isn't a hard job. just time consuming.
