First off BEFORE you just start ripping things apart first check and see if your PTO and three point work, IF yes then change the hyd, filter and fill to the full mark on the transmission dip stick then add three to five gallon more Hy Tran . OH also before you chang filter ya may want to crack the drain plug up under the draw bar and see how much water comes out. , if the fluid is all milky then change that first then the filter . Once done start the tractor and let it warm a bit then run the engine up to around 2000 RpM and turn the wheel to the left as this will help BLEED the system . If you do not get anything happening then ya can pull the small plug out of the back of the MCV with the engine off then start the tractor ( BUT BE READY TO SHUT IT OFF FAST if and when it picks up prime ) IT will pump a ton of oil out fast . If nothing happens then there are two posables (1) the flow control valve is stuck in the MCV and (2) the pump is toast . NOW if you plan on tearing into the MCV and have never done so get a book and REAR before you even touch a wrench and when your done with the first reading then do it again . THEn when you know or think you know then you can start . When you remove the MCV from the tractor becareful not to loose the little sprig on the lower right side of the MCV , this is the sump check plug spring . looks like a ball point pen spring.The MCV controls steering , brakes , T/A and Lube to the rearend. And there is nothing in that system that will break the bank on repairs.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
