Interesting... I have two of the 15HP Bolens diesels - one hydro, the other gear and both of them are 3 cylinders. This must be one of the earlier Bolens?
I have one with a loader.. I love love love it! Can you or anyone confirm the hydraulics run off the transmission? The manual doesn't specify, but what I can see is SAE 80 gear oil. Seems stiff to me for hydraulic but that's all I can find.
This is got to be a gem. I hope one day I find a nice specimen like this one day. Nice video too fella.
Thank you for uploading this video. My father has a G174 and was looking for a guide for this.
Thank you for making this video, I just got a G244

The transmission and hydraulic fluids are shared
