Please tell Josh I that I thank him. Hyd filter relief valve are keys 9-11. With 3 pt raised engine running do you see any moving oil when looking in open hyd filler hole behind seat?
Jim,
I think I remember seeing that. Is it a larger nut with a smaller nut/bolt in it? Should I remove it and see whats going on?
I do not see any oil moving when I look in the oil filler hole.
One thing that baffles me, (I just bought the tractor), I think the Hydraulic oil has just been changed. Maybe filter but defenatlly not pick up screen. The dipstick showed the unit to be overfilled.
I have been removing pickup screen and filter by hooking up a shop vacuum, therefore not losing much oil.
I know I have lost a quart or two, but the dipstick shows still overfull!
I am now planning on looking at the dipstick after the tractor sitts for a couple days.
So, I have my doubts about the accuracy of the dipstick. I can not see any oil at all when I look in filler hole.
Seems it is supposeed to hold 49 quarts. I wonder where it is!
Am I supposed to see the oil bath when looking in filler hole? Im thinking about looking for a plug on side of tranny that seems to line up with dipstick guage.
Thanks!
