I am trying to figure out where you fill the gearbox oil at. From the pictures that I've seen of other New Hollands and even in the service manual it shows a sweeping elbow at the bump out. I found what seems like the drain plug, as it is at the very bottom the gear box and started dumping oil when I opened it. I tried refilling from the drain plug but it isn't taking any oil, it just dumps. Should I tap the bump out? Should I unscrew the pressure release valve and fill it with a quart there?

Gillett WI | Some models didn't have a fill, it got oil from the chain case. Not sure what models, they had a trough in the chaincase that would catch the oil off the chain and funnel to the gearbox. I would fill it thru the breather, the excess will just go to the chaincase. |
