[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 1095, member: 82"] When i changed my oil was when i replaced all my hydraulic hoses, so it was quite messy.... The 743's hold approx 20-30L of hydraulic/hydrostatic oil, i can't rember exactly sorry. Draining ALL the oil is just not possible, i found the only way to do it was un-hook a hose on my 4 in 1 bucket and operate the aux hydraulics to drain the fluid eserve (not fully empty). Then add some oil and operate all your hydraulics. Then operate the hydrostatics by moving the loader around, then drain some more oil. I'm sure JustAwrench will have a better option on how this is done :). As for a manual, the ones on e-bay are the cheapest i could find. I bought mine off maxxwedge (the manual source) on e-bay, he was VERY friendly and helpfull i would recommend dealing with him. It would also be a good idea to get the parts manual too, it makes life ALOT easier when you need to get parts off Bobcat. [/QUOTE]
