Hyster H2.25XM:
Transmission Drain?

Greetings all, a little help appreciated.
Just purchased a Hyster H2.25XM.
Lovely little ex-military machine.
1995 model with the Izusu diesel.
Problem is can't find the transmission drain plug!?
Not familiar with Hysters so pointers appreciated...

Cheers Alex

Thanks for the info, appreciated.
Just to update : Transmission oil & filter now done.
A marked improvement in drive now.

Taking a look at the inching valve now though and not sure how to set up correctly.
(it's the separate piston type connected via linkages off the brake pedal) Single brake pedal (non monotrol)
Valve piston looks to have a couple of grooves in it for measurements purposes.
Any guidance appreciated.
Cheers AV

Thanks, will take a look at it this weekend.
Bolt head was more 40mm and looks nothing like a drain plug so was a bit nervous in just unbolting.
Have you worked much on the 2.25?
I've seen loads of the 2.50's, guessing theyre pretty similar.

yes that's it.. there is a spring behind it but its not too strong. be ready with a tub though as oil comes out fast

Got a big hex bolt head approx. 30mm (facing backwards next to the temp sensor), I'm guessing thats what you mean?
Was a bit reluctant to undo it as looked very structural!..
Let me know if thats the drain ?

(Stackerhacker) You're help is much appreciated as can't find reference to this truck.

Cheers Alex

big bung underneath beside the temp sender about 30mm. or just remove the temp sender if you don't want oil flying everywhere..
behind the big bung is a spring and guaze.it should be clean
