420c reverser

Post by rheadrick » Wed May 23, 2012 9:20 am

How do I check the oil in the reverser and what kind of oil needs to be used. It is a late model with the lever on the left side serial 133,415 Also if I change the oil where is the drain plug. Thanks

There should be a small drain cock on the LH side of the case, like on a radiator, that is the oil level. If it is gone, oil level is 1/2" or so below the front bung plug.
Drain plug is towards the rear of the reverser case on the bottom.

Current Deere equivalent is HyGard, seems to me about 8 quarts, but purely a guess.
