There are no stupid questions on this board, or I would be the King of Stupid!
I changed the Hydro on mine, and as you can see from the above picture, the cap does unscrew. The filter "snaps" out and "snaps" back in. At the end of the filter (the part that goes in first) there must be a hole that fits over something in there and it is very apparent when the filter is in fully. I also did not notice any o-rings on the large cannister filter as is mentioned in the manual.
I've done many many oil changes on motorcycles, but this first hydro/oil change on my 3720 made me a little anxious. After looking back at it, it was nothing more than the oil change on a bike, just ALOT more oil. Between the hydro for the tranny and the front axle, and the engine oil, I put in 8 gallons of fluid. I also learned how to take my FEL off, as it was easier to service the fluids without the FEL on.
