changing hydraulic oil john deere 2130 (part 1)

I've owned my tractor for about 7 months now, and the hydraulics have gone from sluggish to inoperable in sub 0°C temperatures.
My thoughts before beginning were; worst case scenario, my pump is failing. Best case, the previous owner fell behind on maintenance and a simple oil change will solve the problem. Another possibility is water leaking into the oil from somewhere.
After changing it, it looks like scenario number 2. I'll be sure to keep an eye on it and plan on changing the oil again in the spring.

Bless you for this. Great video. The tractor I bought has some contamination and needs frequent changes. Having never done it before, this video made it easy.
