[QUOTE="Jyuma, post: 44321, member: 4393"] I've got a brown cloudy drip coming from one of the PTO fittings. Obviously the fitting is leaking but that's not the question. I removed the PTO hydro hose and the hydro that came out of the line looked clear but the drip from the tip of the male PTO connector is definitely brown and cloudy. Maybe rain water leaked into the tip through the same leak that is now letting it out or maybe the hydro fluid is contaminated. I don't think I should take a chance so I'll be replacing the fluid and the filter. My question is... what drains the lines and cylinders? I have a main drain at the bottom of the hydro reservoir but I don't see how that would drain the cylinders, lines and pumps. What is the proper procedure for a complete hydro drain on a Thomas T133 ? And keep in mind the beast holds 8 gallons of hydro so multiple fills could get a bit pricey.
