Does the L275 have rear axle fill plugs?

[Karambit777]

Or is the main oil-fill port on the transmission the only one? I'm assuming the new fluid makes its way back and down into the rear axle housings from only filling from the main fill port.

I didn't see any other fill ports on the rear axle housings, nor did I see any mention in the owners manual of any additional fill ports for the rear axles.

I asked this in my other thread, but since its a fairly important question, I thought it wise to ask here too.

Check your manual to be sure, most small tractors don't, the oil flows from the transmission through to the axle housing, all one height, as well as used in the hydraulics. The drain points on the axle housings are a low point and oil flow in at a higher point so need to be drained. Some tractors have center pto, and have an additional drain plug at their low point.

Yes that one fill point (Some models have 2 or 3) they all lead to all of the gear/ hydraulic system, besides the front axle.
