Default Changing/Draining Transaxle Oil in 2008 YDRE

Have a 2008 electric YDRE - trying to locate the oil-servicing plug on the rear of the transaxle case located under bag holder insert, to see what the oil level is. I cannot locate it, despite decent descriptions online and reviewing manual. Any descriptions of where this is/what it looks like?

thanks.

remove the black bag holder cover and it is a hex nut. Drain is under the axle. Very simple to replace the fluid

About how much oil and what oil do you use in milled climate for the YDRE?

"ACC-SHAFT-LU-00" Is the correct oil for that axle for all applications. 2 bottles will get it done.

CGTECH,

quick question... my cart is lifted 6". Because I read you just fill until the liquid reaches the hole would it be beneficial for me to throw a jack under the rear end of the cart and lift it until the Trans axle is siting parallel with the ground??? That way I can get max fluid in there? (the 6" lift causes it to tilt way back)

For sure do that. You wouldn't be able to get the correct amount in there if you don't.
