Kubota L2650 Transmission Fluid

Bill Caldwell	I recently purchased an L2650 from a farmer and I noticed on the site glass that the Transmission/hydraulic fluid level was not showing (I thought it must be low) so I decided to change out the fluid. The owner's manual showed two different drain locations so I opened both up and got about 1.5 gallons to drain. The manual said that there should be 7.5 gallons total. Any ideas where the other 6 gallons are? The tractor ran fine before I drained it. Appreciate any help!
farmm	Did you peer down the fill plug hole before you drained. The oil level should have been visible. About 1/2 full. Could it have just 1.5 gallons in it? No leaks, maybe it was not filled up before, bad idea. As long as it is working now, new 7.5 gallons will do the trick. Hope no harm done with the low oil level.
Smokin Dog	Can't say on the L2650, My L3000 has two drain plugs down on the axle housings. Both are 12mm bolt heads, Remove these to drain the rest of the fluid from the axle area. Mine also has the upper tranny drain as yours. My L3000 also holds 7.5 gal. I drained the upper tranny drain and got some oil out, then drained the lower and got the rest out. It's just my thinking, but seems to me you could remove the axle drains and get all the fluid out, without removing the tranny drain plug. Hope this helps.
