This is an off the wall question but I am just trying to figure out how this happens to get a better under standing. I have a small dozer and when I get a hydraulic leak in a line or hose down stream from the control valve it will drain the tank. Has happened 3 times over the years. Some times the tank drains to the return line level and other times the suction line. My tractor does not do this but the tank is lower. The dozer valves are more complicated with load checks and anti cavitation valves that I am not clear on but looking a the diagrams I can't see a leak path to the tank. So what is happening.
It is disconcerting when you crack a line and don't know it then when you come back a couple weeks later there is oil on the ground and the tank 2/3 empty.
