Just remove the end from the spary hose after the handle and put a hose on the end of the tube with a fitting that fits the drive.

Thanks Don. I take it you can fill the whole drive that way? Sure beats the small pump on the quart bottle.

Yup exactly what I did. Cut end off the sprayer nozzle and attach hose and fitting from hand pump filler. Changing drive oil has never been so fun. . Fill the sprayer up, get it pumping, lock ther sprayer open and stand there and drink a beer while it fills.

Could you "T" a pressure gage in the hose and use it to pressure test your drive?

Just to add some more info on the sprayer pictured above,
it is a RL Flowmaster made by Root-Lowell Manufacturing in Lowell, Michigan. Thats right, made in the USA!
