After I drained mine I pressure washed the chain case until spotless, I then wiped out the excess water and blew it dry with a compressor, then I drained the hydraulic tank into the rear cover and poured in a pail of 10w30 before sealing it up. I had changed the hyd oil about 150hrs ago but couldn't see myself dumping new oil in a chain case with-out changing the hyd oil at same time even though it was still quite new. As for "hidden" filters, there are two I believe, they are in aluminum housings on the case drains, remove the filters and disassemble, inside you will find a bronze filter much like the ones used in old Chevy carbs. While you're in there I'd suggest checking over the hyd. hoses for places where they rub and replace if bad enough or re-index the lines so the don't rub any more or atleast wrap them with some kind of protection. Hope this is of some use and didn't come too late. Don</p></blockquote><p></p>
