I have failed two hoses recently where the failure appears to be from the outside in. Hoses were in good condition except where worn. In the BT1000, the hoses proceed through a narrow opening just wide enough for the 6 hoses. If I pull the boom toward the cab, they can pinch the hoses at full retraction. I asked the local Kubota if this was a common problem or have I got a hose routing issue. They were unaware of any issues. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks for any thoughts.
