Kubota B7001

[65SDkarl]

Just bought a B7001 with new FEL. It's not working. Everything else works fantastic. This is my first Kubota. Am I doing something wrong or am I just stupid? Is it possible hydraulic level is too low? Where do I fill Hydr...? Is it the same as North American model # B7100? Wow that's alot of questions. First one to help me will get a case of beer if they come and visit me on Vancouver Island! LOL
By the Way, great site

Does the three point hitch work? That will give us an indication of how the hydraulics are working. If the TPH is working and the FEL is new, it's possible that it is not plumbed correctly. Picture of the loader valve might help us figure this out.

i'm at work right now but what if the three point hitch doesn't work. I have a rototiller on theTPT and it is operational, but have not tried to lower it yet. I just recieved the tractor last night

The same hydraulics that power the TPH power the loader. If the THP goes up then the hydraulic system is good. I would check that the loader hoses are connected properly.

I pulled out the Banjo? bolt where the hydraulic line goes into the trans. It was plugged solid. I replaced it but at the same time was told my hydraulic pressure and return lines were reversed. I switched them around all hydraulics working until there was a loud CRACK!$#@%. I guess the lines weren't reversed.*&^%$# Now I'm looking for a replacement hydraulic pump. Anyone out there have on? By the way i live half way between Courtenay and CR. A full case of beer to anyone with a good deal on a hydraulic pump

Hey Tig here are pics of the valve, obviously my concern is now finding a pump (see previous post)
Cheers,
