Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have a nice 5216H that I will be doing some service on soon and the hydro oil is dirty but works great otherwise. I want to drain and refill; does this unit have a drain plug? I see a hex headed bolt on the bottom but I want to make sure it isn't holding something in place internally.
I can do the siphon method but an all out drain would be preferred. Thoughts?
I will also be replacing the spindle bearings and drive belt; maybe I can post some photos and advice to others afterwards.
I'm wrapping up a Simplicity Regent 12/36 that I bought from the original owner. It was a victim to some ham-fisted hack that resulted in the owner buying a new mower prematurely.
