Hi Guys, new here to the forum and looking for some help. I recently aquired a Hustler Fastrac zero turn, model 927459, with a 52" deck. my rear axle seal failed and fluid leaked out. I replaced the seal and bearing but cannot find the amount of oil to refill the transaxle with. I downloaded an owners manual but it refers me to a dipstick to check the fluid level but I cannot find a dipstick. any help would be greatly appreciated as my lawn is turning into a hay field
