Sealed hydrostatic transmission

Anyo had any luck draining a Hustler Raptor sealed hydrostatic transmission.
I know they're supposed to be sealed and never need the transmission oil changed but oil breaks down over time and use.

You remove each unit, remove the vent (oil fill port) fitting, and turn upside down to drain them.

This will work on a 2017 52" Hustler Raptor limited with a sealed no drain plug hydrostatic transaxle?

Need the model number from serial number tag to look up the IPL to verify. But this normally how you change on unit without an external oil filter. IF has external oil filter then you would simply remove the filter. That is a different procedure as they would be different hydros.
