Using a Hill to Change Hydaulic Check Valve

I was just wondering if it would be possible to position a tractor on the slope of a hill so that you could easily pull out the PTO shaft AND open the side cover to change the check valve without draining the oil?

Any thoughts?

You hit on a pet peeve of mine for many years...the notion of parking a tractor in the ditch to change the pto shaft or work on the tranny /hyd area seems stupid to me...DRAIN THE SUMP INTO SOME CLEAN BUCKETS>LET IT SETTLE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND POUR THE TOP OFF ifin your too cheap to replace the fluid.....I wonder how many of these DITCH parkin fools have actually done so or have heard about it and perpetulated the urban myth that parking in the ditch is a good thing....Big Mike who has never parked ina ditch to work on a tractor

Popster..... ...Zane claims an 11/16 combination wrench, bent sideways in form of figgure "C" will clear the PTO shaft and you can change the pressure valve thru the 6" round port without removing the pump baseplate from tractor. I'd drain the hydro oil so's I'd could see what I's doing. Besides probably need new tranny oil ennyways. (5 gals, $25 cheap)

You do need to remove the PTO shaft if your gonna drop your hydraulic's. Then obviously, you need to drain all 5 gals of hydro oil first.

The tractor nose down innna ditch trick is for changing out the 4-bolt PTO shaft without draining the 5 gals first, 15 minute job..... ...Dell

People do that all the time as they post it from time to time here on the board. I don't see why as I would prefer to fill a bucket or two with oil and work in the comfort of my shop or at least on level ground under a shade tree! About 5 minutes to drain and refill with oil, it's your choice.

Or..... ..the old "combo" method. Slam into the back wall of the shop at a good clip and you'll have very little draining to do from that rear sump. ;^)
