M600 hydro fluid change

[fatjay]

What's the lowest point to drain all the fluid out. Is there a bottom drain? Or should I do the side drain and vacuum the rest out? Fluid is heavily contaminated with water and I want to get as much of it out as I don't want to spend $200 only to have it contaminated again.

I jacked up one side then took the tires off and supported the low side of the skid steer. removed the chain cover and used a drill powered pump , most can pump 5 gal. in just a few min so I think you will need 3 or 4 buckets , this is a fairly non messy way to do it. When you get it pumped out you can look at the bottom of the tank to see if there is a lot of gunk that has settled in the bottom. If it is nasty you will need to mop out the other side also. I think the 600 is very similar to the 500 I have.
