Kubota M4030SU transmission and hydraulic fluid level

[rmacgee]

Hi,
I have a 1992 Kubota M4030SU How do you check the transmission and hydraulic fluid level. I have no dip sticks or sight glass. I have fill plugs for both. I have a owner's manual and a service manual but they do not mention anything about it. It is a great running tractor in great shape. Thank you for any information.

There is probably a fill level plug that you remove and stop filling when fluid starts to run out of the hole.

A pure guess on my part but see this plug #30 near the fill plug on the rear of the tractor

You should have a black rubber caped dip stick on top of the transmission.

That plug is a return line location.
It would be a "tad" overfull if you used that as a fill indicator.

You guys have solved the problem. Thanks a lot. Have a good day.

Thanks for the information

I just want to make sure your NOT following @Russell King info as, even though well meaning, it's wrong.
