Default 1864 - How much hydro fluid?

I have drained my hydrotrans unit and it looks like about 3 - 4 quarts is all that came out. What is the capacity of these things?

I have 4 quarts of Cub Cadet trans oil that came with the tractor. If that is not enough, what is the equivalent fluid available from an auto parts store?

Also, the fluid was pretty dirty. I saw some information on another thread about removing the rear plate and cleaning out the axle tubes. Is this an issue on my 1864 as well?

This should help you..... Lub Chart

In addition....Here are the recommended hydraulic fluid.... Fluid

And YES, pulling the rear cover and clean up the rear end is a REAL GOOD idea.

In order to suction the crud out of the axle tubes you need to remove the axles. If you are going to do this I would replace the axle seals also. Not a big project if you are good with the tools. Pull the cover, remove the wheels and brake calipers, pop the C-clips off the axels and they will slide out. Suck the crud out of the tubes, remove and replace the seals, grease the axles so they don't cut the new seals, put the axles back in, the C-clips on clean the old gasket off the cover and put it back on with the sealant of your choice. Enjoy. Oh I forgot your original question, you need close to 2 gals.

Thanks for the info. I got nothing close to 11 quarts out of that drain. Could it be some of it is trapped? I had 4 quarts of Hytran on hand, which appears to have filled it according to the dipstick.

I would hope you didn't get 11qts. out of it, they hold around 7 with the filter.

I do not know where you are coming up with that data.

The links I directed you to states 14 Pts or 7 Qts.

I saw that. The manual says to have a drain pan that will hold 11 quarts

The 4 quarts I had on hand came with the tractor 10 years ago.

I looked at 772-4166 Service Manual on page 5.107 and I still don't see this 11 Qt thing.

Here's the deal, I've only done about a dozen trans refills in the last year. The 1864 has the Sundstrand pump and same case as a Super. The last one of those that I did was last week and it took less than 2 gals. more like 7qts.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
