briankd 817 #1 Posted December 24, 2020 never owned one of theses before . when you change oil does it all drain out like the manuals do and just put the 5 quarts back in thru the dipstick ? i know there is a filter that needs changed. also guess there isn't any valve that you move to get this to roll by hand ? wife pushed it into the garage when it arrived but when i went to push it took all i had to push it . can't believe she pushed it about 15 foot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,767 #2 Posted December 25, 2020 You will probably only get about four quarts of oil drained. The filter should also be changed, it is a NAPA 1410 or Wix 51510. Refill through the dipstick hole and go slow. a piece of wire along the side of your funnel will give you transmission a vent while filling. Push the speed control lever forward when you want to push the tractor. 20 minutes ago, briankd said: wife pushed it into the garage when it arrived but when i went to push it took all i had to push it . can't believe she pushed it about 15 foot Don't cross her, sounds like she could get the best of you. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeM 7,874 #3 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) No bypass, pushing 15 foot by hand should not have hurt it. They say not to tow them. 1/4" hex alen plug in the bottom. Warm it up then drain. To refill use the dipstick and remove one of the 3/8 bolts in the top of the case to relief the air. 1410 NAPA filter is a good filter. 10w30 oil up to 5 quarts but more like 4 1/2 with the filter change. Fill, test check use the stick for fill level. I use IH rated tractor trans fluid in now, seems to be much smoother and quiet. It is a 10W30 weight with a good additive package for hydros / transmissions. The oil is Traveller 590901 Premium Universal Tractor Trans/Hydraulic Fluid is a specially formulated, premium multigrade (SAE 10W-30) Edited December 25, 2020 by JoeM 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use the WIX 51410 fi!ter on mine. EDIT: I may be mistaken... Just did a little searching and the 1100s I've seen have the filter out the rear. Mine is behind the right rear tire. Do I have the Sunstrand? Yup, looks like Sunstrand, so as Emily Latella would say, "Never mind!" Edited December 25, 2020 by Jeff-C175 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,321 #6 Posted December 25, 2020 Same filter,same oil, same procedure. I use Mobil 1. I run the 10w40 version in my C-160. Seems to work better in the summer heat than the 10W30 did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
