"Took it off and went to put it all back together but couldn't connect two of the four hoses so I call my cousin in Nebraska and he says to relieve the fluid pressure by poking the teets in the hoses that were still disconnected. You gussed it, hydralic fluid shot up my arm and soaked my shirt but sure enough when I connected all the hoses it worked again (note to self; there's no reason to take off the loader ever again)."
Missouri,
Great looking machine, congratulations. I like those bar tires too.
I'm interested to hear your opinion on the cut quality delivered by the Woods mower. I really like mine and think it does an even better job than the JD belly mower.
By the way, not sure if it's the same for Kubotas, but in the JD manual, they tell you to rock the loader control valve in all directions after you shut off the engine and before you disconnect the loader hydraulic hoses. This supposedly equalizes the pressure to make them easier to reconnect.
