B2410 steering trouble

[j886]

B 2410 HST with front end loader. Just had all filters and fluids changed and now steering is very hard. Only turns a very little unless you are moving foward or backward. I also noticed the power steering and loader take a while to work when you first start up. Read a few post here about possible leak on the non pressure side of hydro system. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

Have changed the filters and fluids on mine and not had this issue.

Have you...

1. checked the hydro fluid level?

2. tried lifting the front end with the loader and cycling the steering to bypass on both sides a few times?? Maybe you still have some air to purge.

It sounds like you have air in your system. Continue to cycle the loader and power steering...it should work its way out.

I will try to cycle to bypass a few times. I was also thinking what if mechanic put filters on wronge side, and or did not clean out strainer?

Could the wrong fluid have been put in your machine?
