Adding Hydraulic Fluid to an Antique Tractor

  • Today I changed the hydraulic fluid in my antique tractor. That's right, the oil change from hell is done, and now it's on to the hydraulic fluid in my 1951 Ferguson TO-20 tractor. The tractor has three drain plugs -- one on the transmission, one on the hydraulic case, and one on the differential. All three must be opened to drain the system. The tractor takes 4½ gallons of 90 wt. mineral oil. On this tractor, someone had replaced the hydraulic fluid with ATF, which is not what is specified for this tractor. Some use it -- but there can be hydraulic issues.

    This project got stalled a bit, but will be on track again in early 2021 -- as soon as i finish up the deck-topped super insulated addition I have been working on. I am almost done putting on horizontally installed pole barn siding which gives the building an industrial look. here are some links to that stuff:

      Thanks Joe! That tractor was in a temporary shelter that went down in a storm last week. I'll pull it out in the Spring and get back to work on it. I'll have to look into the swinging draw bar. The draw bar that's on there is really toast!

    Im just on with draining mine and have the same problem with the lifting gear stuck at the top and wont come down. I took the dipstick plate off and it all seems to work on the inside when i try the lever up and down but the harms dont move. maybe it will all work when the new oil is added. Im in England so we both suffer from the same thing. It never stops raining . NEVER !!

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  2 года назад +1

      This video was a while ago, but the hitch arms lifted fine when it was refilled. One thing you have to remember is that (I believe) you have to disengage the PTO once the arms are in position. It's been a couple of years since I got it running and drove it - it's now waiting on a brake job 😐
      I'll be working on the tractor again as soon as I can, but here is the playlist of all of the things done so-far:

    ok 3 drain plugs, but 1 fill plug correct? or is there 1 for each of the 3 compartments?. Thanks

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  5 лет назад +3

      Yes, I believe that Is correct. I'm not in the shed at the moment but that makes sense. The fluid is shared by all of the components, and there is a drain for each because they are at different levels. The fill is on top so only one is needed.

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  5 лет назад +2

      Draining the old fluid gets rid of the majority of the nasty stuff. To get things 100% clean I believe things would have to be disassembled and cleaned.

      Hi Andy, I would read the owner's manual on the specifications as they are not the same. I would guess you need hydraulic fluid.

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  5 лет назад +3

      Sorry, I haven't installed the lights yet. I just showed them and the other stuff that will be installed in the 'kit' for the Ferguson. As for the welder -- I don't know. I'm just learning to weld. My wife found the nearly new welder at a barn sale down the road. This one is a Hobart stick welder, and I'll be trying my first weld next week.

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  5 лет назад +2

      I'm a beginner welder, so I'm not the person to ask about welding. We found a Hobart stick welding machine at a rummage sale that was nearly new, and a good price so that's what I am starting with. The Ferguson lights came from Steiner Tractor. Most old tractors -- especially 6-volt ones -- did not come with lights from the factory, but they were available as an option.

    • @PlanetMojo
      @PlanetMojo  3 года назад +2

      These models never had a push button starter and production started long after the war. The starter works using the shift lever so that it cannot be started in gear. It is a 1951 TO-20, and has a Z120 Continental motor which is correct. Maybe you are thinking of the TE-20?
