Steve on the rear lube, the M takes 13 GALLONS of 90W or 85W-140. I use whichever one is in stock at the local farm store. I drain the M in 3 places. You have the rear plug underneath the PTO. Have FOUR 5 gallon buckets ready just in case someone had overfilled it. Also there is a front drain plug on the transmission underneath the inspection plate next to the hydraulic belly pump. You will get a quart or so out of that drain hole. I also remove the 3 bolts on the flat belt pulley assembly and tap the pulley out 1/4" or so. You will get 1/2 quart of 90W and water. Condensation has a tendency to migrate up to the belt pulley assembly. It is purposely designed to hold 90W that is sloshed up from the transmission. The fill plug for the transmission/rear end is that large diameter plug between the steering post and the brake pedals. Use a 3/4 drive of some sort to remove it. Clean that area good before you remove it. Save about 1 quart of the new 90W and pour it in the inlet hole on top of the flat belt pulley assembly. The excess will simply run back into the transmission. I use teflon tape on all the plug threads. Make sure you install the drain plugs before you start filling it!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have the hydraulic belly pump, the drain plug is on the bottom. It holds 6 quarts of non-detergent SAE30.
