Hey,
I got the tractor yesterday. Hour meter shows 852 hrs. There is a small hydraulic leak thats coming from this "valve" looking thing under the seat.
When you pick up on the position control lever, It turns a rod that goes under the seat. The rod is connected to linkage, which in turn pushes the "valve" in. When you let the position control lever down, the "valve" comes out.
The "valve" is like a very small "piston" looking mechanism.
Standing from the rear of the tractor, It is directly behind the "spring" that is under the seat. The spring and valve are in the same "line" as the tractor's 3-point hitch "toplink".
The "valve" (that pushes in and out) has a nut or bolt with a rubber gasket in it. The rubber gasket is whats bad. Its almost like the rubber gasket is mounted inside the nut or bolt (which ever it is).
This is very simple to see when you lift the seat up. Is is hard to explain without any pictures though.
I looked at Fredricks' and Hoye's website but couldn't find a picture of what I needed.
Anyone confused yet?
Thanks,
Travis R
P.S.....I really love my tractor. Not because its new, but because its the size I need.
