Question Changing Hydro Fluid

Newbie question of the day.

What do I need to do to change the hydro fluid on my super? I believe it has a 1572/1772 rear end. The fenders and fuel tank are from a cyclops. I can't find a drain plug anywhere. I assume the rear cover will have to come off to drain the fluid? 3 point and rear PTO make it a little more challenging...

P.S. - ignore the tin can next to the super

It has a drain plug in the front bottom next to the suction tube below the filter.

If it were me I first would be sure to get a new proper filter and hydro fluid. If after draining the tranny any milky colored fluid would prompt me to remove the rear cover and really clean out the cavity. I use a thin plastic tube down the fill tube which makes filling a bit easier. It mostly cures the burp back of fluid making a mess of tractor and person.

Thank you Sam and Paul. I will call the local Cub dealer to see if they stock my filter and a couple gallons of HyTran. The manual states 8 qts. capacity. Does this sound right?

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.
