Hi Everyone,
1 yr lurker, 1st time poster. Anyways...
I was trying to push over a tree this weekend with my John Deere 410D Turbo Backhoe, and the backhoe arm was pushing me off the ground as the tree gave me some fight and I came back down on the stabilizers hard a few times when all of a sudden I heard a gushing sound happen. I looked out the window and down and saw a pink/purplish spray coming out hitting part of the tire.
I think it could be a problem with the hydraulic stabilizer on the right, which was weak before this happened. Basically prior to this happening, it wasn't able to push me off the ground very much, felt like low psi ( i never inspected for leaks sadly ). When I felt around the hoses connecting to the valvebody, I didn't feel any tears or rips. Thats my best guess, but the color of this fluid is throwing me off a little bit. I obviously feel like an idiot because of this happening. Anyone who has any guesses or ideas, I'd love to hear them.
Thanks,
