    Welcome to HEF @james petterson Basically check the oil level at the plugs, if it's milky - dump it. TIP - It's a waste to put brand new engine oil into the chain cases. Drain your hydraulic oil & save it to fill them. Put the new oil in the hydraulics. Pic below is straight from the operators manual
