MF 860 Backhoe loader

marine1983 · Feb 14, 2016

Hi,

I need a little advice on what this warning light could be. The warning buzzer and light comes on as soon as I start the engine. It goes off again at tickover. However as soon as I press the throttle it comes back on until I let it idle again. It seems to go off after the engine warms up. It seems to be oil related but I'm not sure what its warning me about? Any help on getting an operator/owner manual for this would be a great help.

Any help appreciated.

Sounds like it's cold and the hydraulic oil is bypassing in the filter once it warms up your good to go.

Hi,

Thanks for your answer. What does bypassing mean? How do I fix it? Its coming on for a reason.

I get that happening on my case backhoe when the oil is cold until it warms up. I don't really know if that's what's happening in your case it depends on how cold out it is generally colder than -10 C. The systems your describing are exactly how the the warning reacts to thick oil trying to be pushed through the filter medium just allow things to warm up before you start working them hard and you will have no ill effects.
