B6200D Transmission Oil Filter and Strainer location?...

[iain7391]

Hi all, I'm busy starting a much needed overhaul on my hard working B6200D and decided to start with the fluids and filters. I have regularly done the air, fuel and engine oil filters but having recently acquired an actual owners manual I have realised that there may be a transmission fluid filter and strainer. I have had the machine for many years now and wasn't aware of this as there is nothing obvious on the machine. This may sound like a noob question from someone with a bit of experience but does anyone know where the filter is actually located on the machine and the mythical strainer? Is it hidden behind an access plate or behind something else? My FEL and rear link arms have been slow for the last couple of years and I wonder if a choked filter or strainer is the cause of this!

Any direction, advice, photos would be welcomed as I am actually stumped by this one and the owners manual only shows a location drawing for the B7200 (common owners manual).

Cheers for now
