310 front axel building pressure

Wch1011 · 2024-05-08 05:57

Hi everyone I have a JD 310sg backhoe, I was checking the oil level in the front axel and noticed that it is under pressure when I removed the plug . Is this normal or should this axel be vented ? I am guessing the vent is plugged ? Does anyone know where this vent is located ?
