Replaced hydraulic hoses on Branson frontend loader but now will nor fully engage

[jraul]

I recently replaced a front end loader hydraulic hose which had burst on my Branson 4220 and the loader worked perfectly afterwards. I then decided to replace the other three due to age, but upon replacing them my loader will not fully operate. The lift will go up only half way and the tilt will not fully turn. I ran the tractor for about 10 minutes with a little increase in lift but still not at full lift or tilt and very sluggish. Could air in the lines be a problem as I was told it should work itself out? Any suggestions as obviously I am a novice at best at hydraulics? Thanks much.

The air should work its self out pretty quick. Check quick coupler connections again.

Air will work it's way out. It's either quick couplers or you got a couple hoses mixed up when replacing...

Check oil level, sounds like you are running out of oil.
