Thanks John, I did find the section covering what is under that cap. The different manuals are very helpful as we go through trying to get familiar with it and up to date on servicing. Thanks for the advice around drain/fill torque's. Found that chart and will work it out from there. The parts...

Thanks for the replies. We'll try to find the instructions for the throw out bearing greasing. Don't think that was in the manuals. How often should that be done? With regards to #3, we probably weren't so clear. It's not that lever that adjusts something for the 3pl. There is a metal plug/cap...

I have a few things I'm trying to identify that the manuals haven't been much help with - does anyone know what's under these? #1 (A & B) : hatch above righthand step, label is mostly illegible but seems to say something about lubrication so I'm thinking it's something important #2 : this is...

Recently acquired, still learning, any advice appreciated. There's a hose from the top of the radiator that doesn't go anywhere, looks the same on the parts manual, no sign of a reservoir tank. But the loose end of the hose looks flared as if it's maybe been attached to something in the past...

Hi Russell and John, Thanks heaps for your feedback. I had read that about the Creeper gear and will keep it in mind. John, good to know the slight grind when engaging the PTO isn't a big deal. Now onto servicing it. Found most of the grease points. Will flush the radiator and replace the...

Thanks mate. My implements are all 540 so I've got it set to that. I saw that other thread and adjusted the PTO clutch so the free play is within normal limits today (it was way above limits). Unfortunately it still grinds briefly when shifting into Live PTO even after the PTO clutch lever has...

Thanks. I adjusted the PTO lever so the free play was within reference values. Unfortunately it still grinds briefly while pushing the PTO gear lever to "Live", after leaving the PTO clutch lever up for about a minute. Does that mean the problem is elsewhere? Kind thanks!

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread. I just got a m4500dt and had a similar issue with some grinding when I'm shifting PTO lever into "Live". I tried it about 4 times. It did go into "Live" and the PTO started turning and there was no more grinding. There was no grinding when shifting it to...

Hi everyone, I recently bought a M4500DT with a few implements. I have never used a tractor before so I'm a bit lost where the manual isn't super clear. This model has "Ground" and "Live" PTO options, a PTO clutch lever, and a lever at the back attached to the PTO output box to select...
