Hello -
My first post, hopefully in the right section. We've had a Scotts by JD tractor for 16 years, the machine runs great. However, while the engine is strong, the speed over the grass has been slowing down, especially when pulling a sweeper. I figured I would check the transmission fluid.
Getting to it was .... interesting.
I'm not sure where to add the fluid. The pictures below show the tractor to give a perspective, then a close-up of the top of the transmission. The only possibility I see is through the vent hole (circled in red). Is that correct, and if so how do I tell when the level is correct?
Thanks for any help!
Jim
