1. Park the tractor on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
2. Locate the hydraulic fluid reservoir. On the Ford 1720 tractor, the hydraulic fluid reservoir is located on the right side of the tractor, behind the seat.
3. Remove the filler cap from the hydraulic fluid reservoir.
4. Insert a funnel into the filler opening.
5. Add hydraulic fluid to the reservoir until it reaches the "Full" mark on the dipstick.
6. Replace the filler cap.
7. Start the tractor and let it run for a few minutes to circulate the hydraulic fluid.
8. Check the hydraulic fluid level again and add more fluid if necessary.
Here are some additional tips for changing hydraulic fluid in a Ford 1720 tractor:
* Use the correct type of hydraulic fluid for your tractor. The Ford 1720 tractor requires SAE 10W hydraulic fluid.
* Do not overfill the hydraulic fluid reservoir. This can cause the hydraulic system to malfunction.
* If you spill any hydraulic fluid, clean it up immediately. Hydraulic fluid is harmful to the environment.
* Change the hydraulic fluid every 1000 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first.
