Read articles →An owner-led walkthrough of the GC1705 hydraulic fluid change, covering the full drain-and-refill sequence: pulling the tire for access, locating the screen filter and drain bolt under a muddy guard, swapping in a dealer-sourced Argo filter, cleaning and reinstalling the screen with its two gaskets, and reading the sight glass to the correct fill level. Practical for GC1700-series owners doing their first hydraulic service.
Posted by the ROMAN-OAK channel, with the presenter appearing to be an owner-operator sharing hands-on experience with their own GC1705.
About every 500 hours, compared to an oil change which should be done about every 100 hours.
Pull the tire off for easier access, then clean the muddy guard to find the screen filter and drain bolt underneath.
An Argo filter sourced straight from the dealer, installed hand tight like any other filter.
Fill until the sight glass reads about half to three quarters, with the bucket and deck down.
