Kioti DK40 losing hydraulic fluid somewhere

Hello,

I have a 2012 DK40 with 550 hours on it, I am losing hydraulic fluid somewhere? I cant see a leak. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jake

Have you checked your engine oil level? If the seal is gone on the front of the Hydraulic pump it will fill your crankcase with Hyd fluid.

I checked the oil, its a little over the full mark, but does smell like Hydraulic oil.

Thanks
