The last two pictures above, the last one shows the position the linkage would be in if the lever was back(disengaged) the next to last would be lever forward (engaged)

I'm planning on doing a full fluid change tomorrow; engine oil, hydraulic oil, coolant.  The tractor sat for 5 years so i want to have a baseline on when everything was done.  I have the manuals so i don't expect any issues.  I have read some posts on making sure you refill in all the proper spots so you dont ruin the transmission.  Is there anything i should know about changing the hydraulic oil with a loader on it?  I dont want to get any air in the system.  Can i use universal tractor fluid for brake fluid without hurting anything?  Thanks

If you are going to change the rear end fluid make sure you remove and clean the suction screen for the pump.

Transmission and rear end are 2 separate compartments.

I use tractor fluid for the brake reservoir.  Any air you get in the loader cylinders will work out with a couple of uses of the loader.

It went pretty well yesterday but having to make a run to the agco dealer slowed me down and I didn't get to everything I wanted. Put a new injector bolt in the fuel line.
Changed the oil and oil filter. It was jet black. Changed the fuel filter and bled the system. Drained coolant, flushed with water and refilled with new 50/50.

Found some good stuff like my windshield wipers and radio work. I have some lights working.

Found some not so good stuff like my heater isn't working, power steering piston is weeping. Temp gauge does not move from cold. Clutch engagement is right at the top. I'm assuming there is am adjustment.

I'm going to remove the left and right floor pieces and see if I can get the fabbed up. I tried to price them out but they are unnavailable.
