Im changing the hydraulic fluid on my 2030. All reference materials state the system should hold 10 gallons of fluid. The dipstick showed the system was full before draining, but after removing the drain in the plug in bottom of the transmission only 5 gallons came out. I know there is going to be fluid in the lines and pumps that might not completely drain out, but I cant imagine that being more than a gallon or so. Is there other areas in the system that should be drained or a method to get more fluid to the trans sump for draining? Or is the capacity of the system off. Im changing the fluid due to water contamination and would like to remove as much as possible.
