Hi all. I am new to the site. I just bought a 2740 with fel and don't have any manuals for it. The issue is the hydraulics is slow and jerky. It's thru out the system. It seams to have pressure. Going to put a gauge on it tomorrow, not sure how to check flow output. It acts like it has air in it or maybe a plugged filter. I have never seen a filter that plugged but I guess its possible. Oil was on the lower mark and seemed to have some bubbles while running. The oil looked clean. The seller said it did not do it on warm days. Does anyone have any thoughts? In past experience if it was water in the oil it should look milky. I did buy a filter so I may start there first. Thanks for any info and somewhere to get a manual. Preferably owners and service. I did find a parts one.
