Read articles →An owner-led walkthrough of every fluid change on the RK24: engine oil, transmission/hydraulic fluid, rear-end oil, and front axle housings. The narrator points out each yellow-painted drain plug, notes the socket sizes (17mm and 19mm), and explains a throttle-linkage trick needed to reach the transmission filter. Front-axle oil hasn't been changed yet, so that portion is preview only. Most useful to first-time RK24 owners tackling their initial service.
Posted by the mikelastime channel, apparently an RK24 owner sharing personal maintenance experience from their own machine.
It is on the passenger side along with the dipstick. A different wrench is needed since it fits over top of the filter.
The engine oil drain plug takes a 17 millimeter, and the rear end drain plugs take a 19 millimeter.
You have to move a small throttle linkage mechanism by pulling a pin on each side, then pull it down and back to reach the filter.
No, the owner says he hasn't changed it yet and only loosens the fittings to bleed air out of the front end housings.
