Other suggestions would be to make sure the filter gasket comes off with the filter (it was still stuck to the underside of the tractor) and make sure you put the washer back on with the oil plug (I found it at the bottom of the oil pan). My biggest suggestion would be to add hydraulic oil slowly as the ideal level sneaks up on you and you'll suddenly have it flowing out of the dipstick tube if you overfill it. I don't use my tractor at all in the winter but I do use it in spring and fall when temperatures are in the forties so I followed suit. They told me they put it in all tractors they service around here, presumably because we're in Western New York. I was also faced with the dilemma of low viscosity or not and just went with the dealer's recommendation to use low vis because it allows for better circulation in cold or cooler weather. The screen was loaded with metal chips but none on the magnets inside the filter. I just changed the engine oil and transmission/hydraulic oil in my 2720 for the first time and found magnets in both the screen and filter. I do that w/ my JD's when I need to use the hydraulic systems. You could, but letting it warm up is better. Just don't start the thing and in less then 1 min, stomp on the go peddle. If you have a front end loader, cycle the loader up down 3-5 times after warming. If you start it up for winter/cold weather use, start it up, let it idle 5 min.then bump up the throttle a little. I have a few old Jacobsen law tractors that have a hydro-stat trans and it squeals when cold (it has different oils recommended too.but one was similar to JD Hyguard-aka hydraulic/transmission oil). If you HAD standard hyguard and you said low vis is quieter, it's (just a guess) the pressure bypass. My suggestion to using Hygard vs low vis in a hydrostatic tranny, let it warm up. I used regular Hy-guard (since I have lots of JD tractors and buy it by the 55 gallon drum), but when cold, below 40F, I notice it takes some time for the pump to prime (pump is HIGHER then the tank). The manual said to use 'turbine' quality oil and listed a viscosity index number. I asked my dealer, because I was replacing the hydraulic fluid in an OLD late 1950's Yale forklift.

The low viscosity is for colder climates. As stated by mfreund, it's all about temperature. Order now from Ubuy Palestine, your global online. My dealer explained to me the difference. Shop for John Deere Low Viscosity Hy-Gard Transmission and Hydraulic Oil, available in a 5 Gallon Bucket.
