I have a Massey 1635 hydro that has a small leak in a hose on the bottom of the transmission. When I ordered the hose from the dealer, he offered this procedure to prevent draining the entire 11 gallons of oil from the case. Clean out a small shop vac real well and remove the dust filter. Duct tape the vac hose to the fill pipe on the back of the tractor and turn it on. Proceed with changing the hose, as the vacuum will hold the majority of the oil in the case and you'll only loose a quart or two. This sounds like something I could really make a huge mess trying to do.
I had just planned to drain the oil into three brand new buckets and put it back in after I had the hose replaced. Oil was just changed about 30 hours ago so it has lots of life yet, too soon to change it again. Anyone tried the vacuum idea?

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
