It shows the dipstick location, the fill port on the right side, use of Deere's Hy-Gard low-viscosity fluid, and the actual quantity added (two 32-ounce bottles, 64 ounces total). Good for owners doing routine seasonal maintenance checks; not a deep repair or diagnostic video.
Posted by the Stone House Acres channel, an owner sharing a hands-on maintenance task on their own 3038E.
It is on the left hand side of the tractor, where you pull it out to check the transmission and hydraulic oil level.
On the right hand side of the tractor, you untwist the fluid cap and use a funnel to pour fluid in.
The video recommends using Deere's Hy-Gard low-viscosity transmission and hydraulic oil.
It took two 32 fluid ounce bottles, 64 ounces total, to bring the level back to full.
