hydraulic

Hello everyone, I have a 1989 Ford 1320 tractor with a manual transmission, and I’m having a problem. I have more or less the skills of a mechanic, and I bought the tractor’s workshop manual, but I don’t really know where to start. I have an intermittent hydraulic problem that’s getting worse...

Considering selling my skid steer and going back to a tractor. Long story short, two years after I bought a new L228 New Holland for my small business I was diagnosed with Parkinsonism. Not full-fledged Parkinson's but many of the symptoms and disabilities of Parkinson's without the tremors...

I had my MF 175 repaired for a leak around the pto shaft. The shaft also had some play in/outward. With minimal use, the shaft has moved into the tractor and it leaks profusely. Looks like some kind of fabric wadding was put in to prevent leaking, what holds the shaft in place, how to repair...

New here. I have lost aux function to the thumb. Aux indicator light will not illuminate unless I unplug the aux wiring to the RH joystick (code 12-22) I have checked everything I can think of; valve/coils, RH joystick, controller, fuses, relays and every harness I can see.. Everything works...

I have an AGT QK16R excavator with around 8 hours on it. Yesterday I used it to get some rocks out of my yard, and after I had driven it behind my shop to park it, I saw a long trail of hydraulic oil on my driveway. I don't know how much oil I lost, but nothing shows in the glass, and I'm amazed...

Just turned 6700 hours on my L2550DT. I brought it up for a full service: hyd fluid and filter, engine oil and filter change, fuel filter change and adjusted some items like clutch pedal starter depressed position etcetera. I was pleased to find NOTHING in the hydraulic oil sumps, not even a...

Hi all, I have a 3-point "side link" hydraulic cylinder with a swivel ball at one end. The cylinder itself is fine, but the ball is very tight, almost glued in place. The first fix I tried was to use paint stripper to get rid of all paint on the ball (there was a lot). I've then tried huge...

I bought this tractor (2021) used, about 1 year ago with 175 hours on it. Today I was adding some rear remotes and had to undo hoses connecting to the power beyond port on the tractor. This fluid looks way too dark for 315 hours, right? The oil smells fine... should I be worried? The manual...

Hi All - I am new to the forum, and also fairly new to tractors in general. I have a Kioti CK2620 that is about a year old (first tractor). I have a leak from a hydraulic line connection where the hoses come up and connects under / to the right of the seat. Picture attached. There are four...

Have a 5075GN that will give a hydraulic whine and chirp that follows engine rpm. All hydraulic functions are working properly and has no issue driving. Seems to be coming from bell housing area of tractor. Can feel vibration at steel SCV lines.

I recently acquired a Case IH 454. Mostly been good but has given intermittent hydraulic issues e.g. bucket won't lift. The guy before me changed (or got someone to change) the hydraulic fluid and (I assume) put the right stuff in there. When I purchased it I thought it was low on hydraulic...

Any one else have a hydraulic line burst right under the floor mat? It was pinched between the floor board and the frame and the forward pedal pedal pivot was was rolling right under it you can see it in pic 2. It all most cut the hose in half.

I'm negotiating on what's likely a rescue from the salvage yard, if I don't buy it. Among other things, it needs a full set of hosed for the FEL. I *might* be able to get it cheap enough to justify paying a hose shop to make up the hoses, but for the same or less money I can buy 'AmaBay' hose &...

I’m getting ready to change my hydraulic fluid in my Mahindra 3510 hydrostatic model. I believe it’s a 2003. I picked it up, used a couple months back and have not gotten around to doing a hydraulic change. The manuals I acquired from here do not show anything clearly for a hydrostatic model...

The hydro pumps on my Ferris Zero Turn leak and the recommended oil is $16 a quart. They specify Pennzoil 5W-40 Platinum Euro Full Synthetic or Mobil 1 5-40 European Car Formula. The difference is it Meets ACEA A3/B3 A/3B4. Is there something else that is okay to use. I have used sealer and...

I’m hoping someone might be able to shed some light on my issue. I will begin by saying I don’t know hydraulics well, so I worry I’m missing something that someone else might point out. “I don’t know what I don’t know” I am running a Woods Backhoe on a NH TC25D. Subframe mount with pump on the...

Kubota wants an arm and a leg for their hydro fluid! Is there a comparable fluid I can use?

Background, spring 2024 I replaced the hydro pump due to worn pump and gear spline. It has been working ok ever since until Sunday. My GC2310 was working fine and then out of no where the loader, BH, and 3 pt lost hydraulics. Still have power steering and HST. I checked the main pressure...

Hi Everyone, I'll get right to the point... Several months ago I started to notice some hydraulic fluid leaking onto the operator's deck. Thought I would chase it down at some point, but as always, never had time. A couple weeks ago I noticed some blue plastic protruding from one of the flat...

I’m going to admit my ignorance of hydraulics . I was warming up my 450C and was going through blade operations and when I tilted the blade to the right, a hose blew out and sprayed fluid around. My question is this: If I don’t use the tilt function will I be able to move the dozer out of the...

Guys, for years I've fought a losing battle trying to mow the sides of my 3/4 mile drive what with tall weeds, briars and encroaching tree branches. My arms and shirts torn up by briars....grrr. I looked at sickle mowers years ago but there are many saplings and even young trees established...

YM2002D After about 15-30 Minutes of using the hydraulics (Bucket or 3Pt) the controls get sluggish and or cavitate. Replaced the Hydraulic Oil Replaced the Hydraulic Oil Filter Cleaned the Oil Suction Screen Replaced Hydraulic ram O-Ring and white washer thing Replaces all the O-Rings when...

Good day all. Longtime reader first time poster so be kind. To give some background i am somewhat practically minded and am good with my hands and dont have the funds to just buy new parts or get someone in to fix it so am hoping the combined brainpower and knowledge of the forum can help...

I have a 620 John Deere with a Bush Hog 3pt hitch log splitter. The splitter works generally well until I get into some big oak. Then the hydraulic squeals on the tractor and I have to knock the wood off the splitter wedge. I've been told the cylinder is big enough but the pressure relief valve...

I have a 1995 Ford 5610S that is leaking hydraulic oil from the valve on top of the lift cover, just up under the seat. How difficult of a job is this? Any part numbers for what will be needed? I also have a leak on the rear remote coupler where two plugs go. One plug is missing as can be seen...

Satoh 1840 has a small lever under seat that you can flip left or right, has something to do with hydraulics. Has an adjustment screw and once I messed with it it started leaking fluid, no matter what position it was in. Originally 3 point worked, it stopped working after stopping and restarting...

The FEL is using the normal place you would fill the hydraulic as a return. Is removing the return the only way to fill the tractor hydraulics?

I have a Ford 7740 SLE 16x16 transmission, variable displacement hydraulic pump. Steering pump/transmission lubrication light came on. Checked oil level. Ok but looked yellowish/milky. Checked low flow steering/lubrication pressure and it was ok. Changed oil and filters (bought from dealer) and...

I somehow lost the dip stick at the rear for checking hydraulic fluid level. I ordered a new one from local dealer but it has been on backorder since last January. I'm to the point that I will make my own. If anyone could provide a picture showing the length I'd be all set. Would be greatly...

Was looking at this sickle mower for my b2920. I have hydraulics installed in the front for a grapple bucket - my FEL control stick has a toggle switch on the top of it to open/close it. Could I modify that switch to allow a constant open/close to run the hydaulics of the sickle mower? I wasnt...

As I said on my previous post, this three components cocktail is tricky. The hydraulic 3rd point comes from sparepartsholland. To mount it on the tractor one need to need to reassemble the check valve and turn it horizontally so that it's as far away from the tractor as possible. If you don't do...

I finally had time to change the hydraulic oil in my AGT QK16R. People said the Chinese factory fluid could be used fryer oil for all anyone knew, so I chose Traveller. I was under the impression that the tank drain was situated so it could be swung over a bucket by rotating the cab, but I saw...

I bought a used Enrossie Sickle bar with Hydraulic lift. I need to change one of the hoses to make it fit the tractor properly (too long). I ordered what I thought were the right fittings but the fitting on the end of the flow control valve is not like I am used to. NPT or JIC is what I had...

Hello ...so here what i got going on i have my tractor apart striped really doing a brake change while apart i want to run a few new lines im wanting to know what be best to use for hard lines im wanting to bend an flare it myself whats best tools to use that aint a arm an a leg i have a bender...

My tractor has a ~18gpm flow rate (not sure on the PSI though). I'll be routing hydraulic lines from the (stock) rear remote up to the FEL to power the Auger, which should allow for continuous flow @ 18gpm. I've been looking at the Danuser EP1530 which is rated for 15-30gpm. Looks like it can...

I was making a run into town this morning and there was a 20 ton hydraulic jack sitting on the shoulder of the road. It looks pretty new, no rust, paint is in good shape. It works without a load, but I haven’t tested it with a load so no clue if it actually works. I might have to go to YouTube...

Just wondering if anyone else has this setup and how the ran the wiring and where they placed the switch for the Massey 8300203 Electric Chute Deflector. Not to mention the back of the switch has 4 connections, which did you use? Thanks in advance.

Can anyone tell me if the much cheaper Mahindra filter is compatible with my B414? I attached pics and the Mahindra part number is the same as the IH part number. Thanks,

I have started to get a very sharp "ping" like noise around engine. Not related to engine rpm. Sounds metalic like a ball bearing bouncing around. Not constant. A random noise. Does not do it with any particular front bucket movement. As best I can determine it may be in (or near) the...

Grandson just spent $93.00 to replace an 18 inch hyd. line! I realize the threads on the fittings are the problem. How do you know what they are, is there a chart? Are they metric or pipe thread or something weird. Where do you get them? Can you get a fitting to plumb from pipe thread to...

Does anyone have a recommendation of 1129 equivalent for a 1974 MF 135? TSC brand? Thanks

Trying to understand what is the best thing to do for hydraulic and hydrostat filters on my two New Holland Shibaura compacts, a 1520 with 3700 hours bought new in 1995, and a T1520 bought used with 400 hours in 2023, currently at 600 hours. I use Wix for the other filters on the tractors...

I have a 2005 New Holland LB75B backhoe. I have a continuing hydraulic leak from the hose that attaches to the output of the hydraulic pump. It utilizes an o-ring to seal pressure. I have replaced the o-ring and there is no leakage. However after about 4 hours of operation, the hose at the...

I have had 2 hoses made at O'Reilly and am having massive sticker shock, wondering if they are intentionally fleecing me. The last one - 8' of 3/8" with 2 JIC fittings was $152. Does that sound right? I was looking on Tractor Supply's website and I can buy an 8' section of 3/8" hydraulic hose...

Briefly Kioti DK45 circa 2014. Rinieri vineyard hedger mounted to the front of the tractor. Hedger has long hydraulic hoses to connect to rear A/B ports on the Kioti. The implement also has a low/no pressure return line which I was told to connect to the large fill port with a Rube Goldberg...

In my Rural King RK37SC, I've always used the Rural King Providence store brand of "Premium Trans-Hydraulic Oil, Multi-Trac Formula for Use In Most Applications" which meets the John Deere J20C spec and many other specs, and costs about $15 per gallon. But they also sell "CAM2 PROMAX Premium...

It is time to to replace the hydraulic hose to the factory thumb on our M59. Any hints gratefully accepted. Does anyone know the fitting size and type? I'd like to get some end caps just to keep things clean. I assume the fittings are JIC, but the manuals don't say which or dash size. The...

I changed the o-rings on this connection to the hydraulic pump but it looks like fluid is still leaking out at the connection. What am I missing?

I hooked up the hydraulics to the diverter valve under the seat. It's extremely slow but it works. But I found that after a while my three point stopped working. Maybe I hooked it up wrong on the return. Any one have pics where the oil returns from the controls to the tank?

I live in an Oak Forest and looking for an easier way to cut down trees and cut wood. I have a Kubota L6060 with rear hydraulic connectors. Has anyone had a chance to use a hydraulic chain saw connected to a tractor. Any pro's and con's would be appreciated.

Hello, looking to see if anybody has ever done the repack on one of these lower lifter hydraulic seals on a 1975 Ford 3400 mine started leaking recently you trying to figure out where I buy them from and how hard of a job it is to myself

Hi guys, I'll try to keep this simple but hoping someone who is knowledgeable about pumps can explain this... - My tractor (1978 20C) has a MK2 hydraulic pump with the rear facing relief. I confirmed this visually. - My parts manual says an alternate pump is the MK3 with the relief mounted...

Got this hydraulic mower. Rebuilt some of the motors on it that drive the blades. Want to monitor the pressure in each blade system. I have one 5,000 PSI for the center motor and I have two 3,500 PSI gauges that deal with the right & left wings which are on the same circuit. (fluid goes from...

Has anyone seen one of these things? A guy on Marketplace is selling one for $800. Seems like a pretty good deal!! He has a video of it cutting small tree branches overhanging his road and it looks like it will do some work. Any idea what sort of GPM it would need? DOes not look like it is...

Ok so I already know where the dipstick is and the fill port, however my question is the appropriate time to measure the level. Assuming I am parked on a flat surface. If I remove the dipstick with the engine cold, I actually hear a momentary socking and gurgling sound and then there is little...

Question. I notice the my ag couplers are leaking on my grapples and at my loader. I've cleaned them up before and tested and didn't se a leak but by the end of a long day running the tractor I am seeing leaks in both locations. Is the heat or the work I am putting them through causing the leak...

In attempting to mow very high pasture weeds, ran right side into a washed out hole. Front wheel dropped hard (rear of shredder probably flew up, then dropped), then bounced out (bent front wheel) then rear wheel dropped in hard pushing hydraulic lift arms up. Now the lift doesn't operate. With...

Long time lurker first time poster, can not find an answer to my question. This is on a mini excavator, it is my understanding that the return line to the hydraulic tank should ideally be zero PSI but could be up to 100 PSI, does this mean my filter and cooler should be no higher than the return...

Hello all... country do-it-my-damn-self girl here. I've got a Mahindra 5035 Gear (purchased in 2009). I've had a hydraulic hose leak for a bit that I need to break down and repair. I wanted to just buy the part and swap it without having to deal with a hose shop, but I cannot for the life of me...

Hello everyone, I recently bought a SAME Minitauro 60 tractor and have done a lot of restoration on it, but I'm having some problems with the hydraulics and lift arms, and I’d really appreciate any advice or insight. The issue is with the two control levers located near the steering wheel...

This weekend I put together my new ditch bank flail mower. DB Flail I'm having an issue with the hydraulics "fading". The tip of the cutter, furthest from the tractor, is constantly dropping. After only an hour of cutting it's clear that this condition is not going to be acceptable...

A single acting cylinder on my lift is squirting oil out the vent, so I assume the cylinder seal is bad. The check valve has 4 lines coming into it, I assume because it's synchronized with the leveling cylinder on the basket. My question is what is the safe way to relieve the pressure on the...

What would be the specifications for a hydraulic motor that would run something like an 18" saw blade? We used 7.5 hp 3ph motors on them for wood defect saws. They were overkill, Boeing used them to cut aluminum (different blade). In any case, I was thinking about using hydraulics to power...

Does anyone know of a metal shield I can purchase to protect the two hydraulic lines off my KX040-5’s thumb? Just a simple metal shield that protects the front and sides. I’ve had a few close calls with small trees getting tangled in the lines and it’s just a matter of time before a line is...

I mixed about a gal. of Rotella SAE 40 into my low on my hydro fluid Kubota L3200. The oil was supposed to go in back hoe attachment. About a month ago I changed hydraulic fluid and filter in the tractor (found out hydraulic fluid is very expensive) Tractor is 2011 with 374 hrs. and when...

My tractor is a pre-force, may of 1968. She has the early style power assist steering, which uses a cylinder with attached valve tucked inside the front bolster under the radiator to add hydraulic force to steering motion. The cylinder, or maybe the lines feeding it, are leaking badly. It needs...

I've got this 15' flexwing that is powered by hydraulics which are powered by the 540 shaft and a pump. Has three hydraulic motors, one for each blade. The right side rotates clockwise, the center and left side, both rotate counter clockwise. They are considered (I believe) a geared motor...

Got an issue I need help with on my 464 diesel. Changed hydraulic filter and noticed the screen was gummy and the oil was not amazing looking, more crummy in the filter housing than the actual drains. Figured I’d drain all fluid and put in fresh. Replaced filter and fluid, now no hydraulics...

It’s time for my 50 hour service for my L4802. The recommended Hydraulic filter (not the HST) is the TC830-37700. However, it costs about $155. That’s just crazy. I haven’t been able to find a cross referenced filter, but wondering if the older HHTA0-37710, used on the older L’s will fit and...

I have a Branson 5835r. It has been a very good tractor. However, sometimes while tractor is running and in the neutral position a screaming noise happens. I assume it is hydraulic related. To make the noise stop I turn the tractor off and immediately started it again. Does anyone have any...

I was changing out the hydraulic filter on my 1999 Kubota L4310 today and it appears that I have gear teeth on the filter magnet. Anyone have any idea what or where these came from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Earlier this week I decided to change the transmission/hydraulic oil in my Zetor 5211 and do a filter change/screen cleaning. After draining it out and cleaning the screen and doing the filter change, I went to town to buy a bucket of 80w90 and a little extra. Well, the local tractor supply...

Newbie question. I have to replace the hydraulic cylinder on my MF135. Question: is there an o-ring that goes between the cylinder housing and the under side of the cover where it bolts up with four bolts? I can't find a parts diagram to answer my question. Thanks

Good evening! “Recycling” a 7308 loader previously mounted on a TC29 tractor, had hydraulic hoses made to replace the hard lines from pump/diverter to the valve. I️ have those lines connected to the P, PB and T ports of the 2-spool valve. The work ports are labeled A1/A2, B1/B2. My dilemma in...

I’m selling a premium Fitrite Hydraulics CAT 1 top link, originally purchased in 2020 and used for just 6 months before being stored indoors. This unit delivers smooth, reliable performance with serious build quality—ideal for anyone looking to upgrade their 3-point setup. Specs: Working...

I have a Massey E 2860 with a FLX 2815 loader. Has anyone heard of the role bucket roll cylinders bending? I have a 40 year old John Deere and have had to replace the bucket because of the pressures I put on it and I’ve never bent a cylinder. This seems unbelievable that the cylinder rod could...

Thought I’d change the oil after eighteen years. Putting aside all the debate on motor oil vs hydraulic fluid. I ended up somewhere in between. Traveller branded utf from tractor supply. It’s a 10w30 viscosity and cheap. About $140 for 10 gallons. Turned out super easy. Hardest part was...

I just developed a pinhole leak on a hydraulic line on my KL 401 front loader. It’s the same one that went bad a couple years ago. At that time, Napa could make me a new one. But now I’ve driven around to four places and nobody has got the right fittings. Anybody know what these fittings are...

While waiting for the injectors to get fixed, I might as well tackle the leaking left front wheel drive. Oil is leaking out of the top of the bevel gear housing, where the pinion gear housing goes in, so I suspect it's the seal between the two. I've ordered a replacement seal and am just...

I hit 600 hours, and my hydraulic filters were due, fluid was coming up and I've been wanting to swap the fluid to synthetic for a while, so all that happened today. Draining it was pretty straight forward. I used an oil extractor through the fill port and pulled out almost 5 gallons. Then...

So, I have a Dixon Ultra Ram 61 mower. I'm having a problem with the hydrostatic drive that I've not seen before, and am looking for advice. Recently, I noticed that the Left stick seemed to respond a bit weakly. This was accompanied by leakage of hydraulic fluid out of the filler tube. Note...

Has anyone used an Amulet HK01-3 PowerClamp hydraulic thumb with a 9" trench bucket on a Kubota KX018/U16 (or other) Mini-Ex? I'm wondering if it will work with the narrow trench bucket on a new Kubota KX018 (or U17), how the thumb tines interface with the bucket, and how it works when using...

Hello all, I pick up a used Speeco log splitter. My tractor, a New Holland Boomer 50 has 1 hydraulic outlet on the back and a joystick for the loader. I tested it out by hooking up to the hydraulics and if I put the log splitter valve on float I can operate the splitter from the tractor valve...

Would anyone know of an additive that can be added to the hydraulic oil in my New Holland 1530 Boomer compact tractor that lets you see where oil is leaking? Preferably something that can be seen with UV light. I have a slow leak; maybe more than one, but I can't tell where the source is. One...

i have a 1966 model 3400 ford tractor which has hydraulic issues after a topcover overhaul. when in position control all of the movement is either at the top of the position or bottom of position.as soon as you move the handle it goes either all the way up or all the way down,nothing in...

We have a BX24 and about 10 hours of work after disconnecting the backhoe, it blew the hydraulic filter. It was replaced and it happened twice more. We just changed the pressure relief valve and are waiting on a gauge to test. Anyone have any insight on this matter and are we missing something?

Our 333G calls for John Deere Hydrau, not hyguard. Part number TY27366, but I wondered if anyone uses a different brand. Our machine still has a year warranty left on it, and I was worried about voiding it if I use off-brand, because 2.5 gallons is about $90.00. I'm open to using other brands...

I'm looking for a thumb for a new Kubota KX018 Mini-Ex. The OX thumb is made in the USA, uses the bucket pin for its pivot, and is complete with hoses.. Anyone have experience with it or suggestions for a better thumb or one to stay away from? thanks

Does anyone know if these will fit the 2350 FEL hydraulic quick couplings on the GC2300 ?

Hey Folks! Hoping somebody has a shared experience and can advise. I blew a hydraulic hose for FEL lift (extend, marked blue) near the big hose valve at the tractor interconnect. I've looked at JD diagrams and discovered a few things. They run their lines inside the steel arm tubes to the...

Hello, I recently purchased a Liebherr 631B that runs fine but it needed new batteries, so I put a new set in and assumed that the switch solenoid was the positive cable, of course it wasn't, which I discovered after some smoke and sparks when I turned the ignition switch on. I melted out a 10...

Hey everyone, I have a Yanmar YM3000 and I'm a bit confused about how the 3-point hitch hydraulics are supposed to work. Right now, there's a lever that I can push or pull, and the hitch either goes up or down — but it's really hard to get it to stay in one place. It feels like it's either...

The 1510 has a flexible, low pressure hose, coupling two sections of pipe from the transmission housing to the hydraulic pump. The part is expensive and hard to source. The local hydraulic hose outfit does not have a good fit. Has anyone found an alternate source?

I have a New Holland 640 hay roller. I had to repack the bale density cylinder. Does anyone know what kind of oil I need to use to refill it. It is a closed system with no reservoir.

Hello there, First post here but have been a fan of the site for a while. Finally got around to addressing some weak hydraulics that intermittently fail all together. Typically, they won’t lift at all until I’ve ran it 30+minutes. Thought I’d start with a top/cover plate rebuild and swapping...

I just purchased a Westendorf TA-160 loader kit for my JD2240. It came with everything needed (except I have to convert to vertical exhaust). The are three hoses “to tractor” (supply/return/“power beyond”) from the two spool joystick. Where do I connect these? I have three steel hydraulic lines...

Hello. I am new to TractorByNet and wanted to get some advice. I just acquired a Kubota lawn and garden tractor GR2110 with 550hrs. The tractor is in good condition but the right side front axle case is leaking hydraulic oil. The oil starts to leak about (2) two days after the tractor was last...

Anyone successfully running anything other than the kubota brand in their tractor? My L 2501 ( FEL and backhoe gear driven) blew yet another hose and I’m back in the market for fluid If I were operating a hydrostatic trans I wouldn’t consider anything other than UDT-2 but there are a lot of...

OK, I need to change the Hydraulic Oil and Filter on/in my TC33D, the current system is extremely contaminated with water, so I need a little info. I checked the price of the oil at the local dealer and it's about $150 bucks for a 5 gal pail, that's pretty absurd. Tractor Supply's...

My low hour (60 hours) MT342HC has started to leak hydraulic fluid around the cover where one would drain the hydraulic fluid from the bottom of the rear axle. It's not leaking from the drain hole nut but around the cover (6" x 7") that the drain nut is taped into. Its a small leak and a such a...

I bought a 1978 Massey ferguson 275 with 1700 hours on it. I also bought 8 attachments that went with it. I loaded the 7 other attachments with a boom pole and brought it home. I got to the last attachment unloading and now the 3pt will not lift if I try to put any weight on it. I pull the...

I'm a newbie. Just bought a 2005 model 790 JD tractor. Looking at replacing all the flex hydraulic hoses. Some look too long. Would like to get specs on lengths of hoses. Also, when in low low gear I can hear a "ticking" noise at the rear end. I'm not familiar with names of parts so...

I have a handy dandy bucket with a hydraulically belt driven unloader. I use it for single handedly putting mulch around plants and bushes. Anyway, I put it on the FEL and when I connected the hose all seemed fine until I tested the action. One direction it works great. WHen I try the...

I am mounting an auxiliary, two spool, control valve on my Mahindra 5145. It is an open center system. I have to run a hose from the "t" port on the auxiliary valve to the fluid reservoir, which is the transmission/differential housing, on the tractor. I have looked more than once and can not...

My Bobcat 325 Mini excavator has lost all function on the right-hand side, I have tested the relief valves, and the hydraulic pump, everything seems fine. looking for ideas to check next

So I got recently 2 pails of amsoil hydraulic fluid. https://www.amsoil.com/p/amsoil-iso-32-100-synthetic-multi-viscosity-hydraulic-oil-hvh/ Got it in iso32 because I use my tractor in the winter too and it gets pretty cold up here. Paid $500 for the 2 pails, but now starting to have doubts is...

I have been considering converting my SSQA on my Kubota to hydraulic. I have a true 3rd function operated off a Summit valve. I was thinking about using a manual splitter valve so that I switch a lever one way and it controls the SSQA cylinder, and then flip the other way and it's back to...

I have bought some discount oil for my ford 4500 industrial with 755 backhoe. Access AG hydraulic oil. Can’t find any info. Will it work or should I take it back.

This is the second time this plate assembly cracked in the last week. I’m using a hydraulic top link and apparently that’s what’s causing this plate to crack, I just don’t know how. Anyone have any ideas why it’s breaking this piece? The top link does not come into contact with this piece in...

I have a Kubota B6100 w/ front loader I just bought. Trying to change/ fill the hydraulic fluid but the loader hose is attached where the fill plug is. What’s the best way to do this? New to tractors.

I see Summit recommends a VG 32 or VG 56 hydraulic oil in the owner's manual. I will be using VG 56 because of the warm climate. Does Summit recommend a particular brand or brands, or certain additives? Thank you -Andrew

Hi, All: I just removed a blown hydraulic hose and should add back what was removed from the hose, so, I am asking: 1) What type of fluid to use (is it 80W90)? 2) Where to add the fluid? Is it one of the top bolts on top of the transfer case? I see a dipstick there but no idea what that...

I replaced the o rings on the rockshaft of the L-210 over the weekend due to leaks. I noticed that the lift was only going halfway up before acting like it was being stopped by something on the inside. I pulled the rockshaft out to look at everything and noticed nothing out of place. How the...

What’s the shelf life on unopened 5 gal buckets of quality hydraulic oil?

So I buy a new Massey Ferguson you tell me I have to replace all the hydraulic fluids in all my accessories my plows my discs and everything else that hook directly to the tractor. Because it uses powertrain 827xl semi synthetic fluid, and my disc and plow from 1940 used conventional oil I can't...

Seems to be a hydraulic problem on my 1643 MF…….When I put the tractor under load either pulling a slight hill bush hogging or pulling another implement in the field the tractor stops moving forward. I can shift into snail range (1st gear) and the tractor will move slowly. I have a power shuttle

Mine appears to be wrong. Up = loader down; down= loader up. Something seems to be wrong with the hose connections. Been that way since delivery new last year. Different from my older ck35.

What happens if the hydraulic steering lines get switched? I had to remove the front axle and forgot to mark which line was which. Will it just steer opposite?

Hello, I purchased a Vicsec VC13C at an auction house. I have a hydraulic leak coming from the pump area. My connections and hoses are good. I contacted usavicsec.com to get the information needed to purchase a replacement pump. I sent them the pictures and information regarding the leak which...

I have a 2004 TC48DA. I am ready to change the hydraulic oil and filter. The current filter on the tractor has hole in the top of it, for I assume a rubber plug. ( this plug is missing from previous owner) I purchased a new filter from New Holland and it does not come with a new plug. New...

When I first purchased my 2014 4540 in 2019, it had a leaking steering cylinder on the left side. In the interim, I made a little catch pan to keep hydraulic fluid from leaking everywhere and I watched fluid levels closely. Recently, I noticed it is now also leaking on the right side of the...

It’s a common problem to struggle connecting hydraulic couplers because there is still pressure in the system. Equipment manufacturers tell you to shut down the machine and operate controls to relieve pressure. And if you have electric controls, that also entails turning the ignition back on...

I finally found what I believe are the correct hydraulic couplers for a GC2300 series. I tried them for fit, and they do mate with the existing couplers. The price was a lot better than buying them locally. https://a.co/d/dq94rrb

My TC33d has hydraulic leaks at weep hole, it loses a lot of fluid. I saw a post where someone thought that o rings might be bad on tubes in the area, but no resolution. I wonder what could cause this. It does seem to be worse when using the loader. Has anyone fixed this?

Hi folks, the backhoe gear pump hits and breaks the hydraulic filter. Am I not connecting the PTO correctly? Could I flip the filter upside down or relocate it, somehow? Appreciate any feedback. Caco

Lost all Hydraulics after changing fluids

Would like to buy a hydraulic hose crimp tool for occasional use in my equipment barn. Any advice regarding brands, features, etc.? Do the manually operated “no-name” units in the $800 range work well enough?

While working with the front loader grapple a hydraulic fluid pipe burst that controls lifting the bucket up. I’m going to contact my dealer Monday but was wondering what this specific piece is called so I can communicate to them what’s wrong. Also curious if this was my fault by trying to get a...

I'm working on putting this back to normal and I'm not sure where the 2 little lines coming out the top of the reservoir go. I've attached a pic. It was like this when I got it. The front line is just hanging under the tractor. There is a piece of fitting in it, and there is a fitting on the...

I noticed some seepage on the underside of my TC33DA. Photo attached. The top left bolt shown in the photo was slightly loose, and I tightened it by about 1/8 of a turn. The other bolts (at least the ones that I can see and get to) are all tight. Tightening this bolt reduced, but did not...

Hello guys. Have a new FF-13 Chinese mini excavator. Been doing some trench digging and learning how it works. It calls for ISO 46 hydraulic oil. Bot a couple gallons of AW46 to change it for the first time. Not sure how much it takes. Been reading a lot about guys adding an oil cooler...

Hi folks! I bought a Little Buck loader and now need to plumb it. I had no idea it was complicated! its only 2 cylinders? I have a pump A BDP-10L In fact I have 2 pumps. Sent to me by the little buck guy! I have been told it will take 2 pumps to power the loader? I also have a return tank...

Got my OEM hydraulic top link today. First time getting OEM parts and installing them myself. They came very well packaged and individually wrapped and each bagged labeled. Instructions were decent but didn't need to be too extensive for a top link kit. I found the operation to be smooth and...

Hi all, This is a "hail mary" to all you Deere experts out there......I'm from the UK and run a large onion farm in Senegal, West Africa and my 9520 has a serious problem. The original hydraulic pump blew towards the end of last year (how, I do not know) but it was replaced by a non original...

I am working on a Ford 3000 tractor that has had an aftermarket power steering kit put on it, the ones you can find at yesterdays tractor, ebay etc... The pressure hose from the pump to the cylinder is leaking and needs to be replaced. I live in a small town and my local hose shop cannot find...

Hi Guys! My name is Jon, this is my first time posting on here. For the last couple of months I have been working on my chassis and loader for my little homeade wheeled mini skid project. Its coming along pretty good, and now its time to start ordering hydraulic components. This is where I am...

Anyone know what threading the couplers are on the front third function and the two rear remotes? SAE or NPT? Thanks.

Whelp... I ran over a large rock by mistake and broke off one of the hoses for the steering cylinder. I am hoping I can just go get a new host and fitting (NAPA)? I attached a picture for the wiser minds to look at. Thanks.

OK,so here is what is going on Yesterday I GO TO START TRACTOR ,I NOTIC A STEADY DRIP COMING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF TRACTOR,I LOOK AND IT SEEMS TO BE COMING OUT OF TIMING COVER. (SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS LOCK BUT EYES ARE NOT THAT GOOD) I UNSCREW COVER WITHOUT IT RUNNING NOTHING,ZILCH. SO I START IT...

I have a question or two. I picked up a hydraulic nut splitter to try and remove some heavily damaged nuts on some turning plow shares. I was able to get one nut free but can't seem to get pressure built up again to work on the others. I'm assuming it needs more grease. Unfortunately, it didn't...

I started the Kubota and went to lift the FEL. The hydraulic pump for the FEL was making lots of noise. Any movement of the power steering also made noise. Like the pump was not getting enough hydraulic fluid. The HST moved the tractor just fine. The night before was down to single digits. It...

Have found many field repair kits for SAE but I need one for 6mm ,etric inside diametrer hose. Searched internet to no avail. Anybiduy have any suggestions? Thank you in advance

Any recommended brands/models for a hydraulic top link for a 5055E? I'm planning on just connecting it to one of the SCV connections. I'd like to get one with the lock to keep it in position when I'm not adjusting it. Also, is there any concerns with using one with a quick hitch? I may go...

Complete tractor novice here so please forgive a simple question. Recently picked up a Shibaura P175. I've not been able to find a user manual or service manual (have the parts catalogue). Would anybody know what the correct hydraulic oil should be? I understand there are two general types, one...

I recently purchased a 2007 Kioti CK25 and thought everything was good on it. After using it some, i found that the loader did not seem to have the lift capacity it should, and wouldn’t lift a full bucket of dirt. I hooked a 5000psi gauge to one of the quick connects for the loader and am...

What is the procedure for bypassing hydraulics on a 2000 power trac pt1850. I need to pull it to my shop.

I am have what I assume is cavitation in my hydraulic system. The hydraulic oil shows many small air bubbles on the dipstick. When I start up my machine and lift the FEL it will start to raise then pause then lifts. I assume air in the cylinders going through the system. Kioti recently released...

Hydraulic store has been favorite this week. Had several line failures and setting up new attachment. Waking up older equipment for spring. Saw these sets of caps and plugs. Be useful to get busted rig back home to work on. Or keeping keeping new ends clean routing hoses thru booms and such...

I have a Kioti 1914 that I bought back in 1996. It has been a good little tractor thorough the years. It has an Allied loader on it and a Woods 7.5ft subframe mounted backhoe on it. The backhoe works fine because it uses a PTO hydraulic pump. The front loader moves slowly until you get into the...

Got tired of trying to figure out which line ran to wich quick-connect /fittings on my FEL and FEL valves. Every diagram I was sent was somehow wrong. Even the dealership didnt quite understand why mine is different. (Was trying to add power beyond to the rear...and failed) So I bought a $6.99...

Hey all, Decided to consult those much more experienced than I. This soft steering hose on my MF 30B has blown -- spraying fluid everywhere. No biggie, I'll just get a new one. Except.. how do I get this thing off???

Hi, First time post. I bartered for a Kubota L4200 GST 4wd that was in pieces. From my reading I guess it's somewhere from a '94-'99 model I have reassembled everything and have run into a problem. Nothing hydraulic works. The rear lift arm doesn't move and the steering does absolutely nothing...

Hi guys, I have a LK3054 that makes a loud noise when directional valve is positioned to power my front loader which stopped working. When I turn the valve counter clockwise I regain my power steering and draw bar operation. I checked the filter and it seemed OK, I posted the video of the...

I was hauling a bit too much weight with my forks on the loader. The block at the end of the rod broke off. Do I need to get a new cylinder or can I just get this welded back on. And what type or weld would it need?

I'm looking for this coupler. They come on some of the hydraulic hoses for Kubota construction equipment. Usually going into the pump. I've attached an image below. Has anyone ever seen these? I'd like to buy them without the hose. It's 040 in the diagram

Sorry to start two threads back to back but very different topics. Was watching (if youtube links aren't allowed the video title is "First Ever Air Conditioned Subcompact Tractor! Kioti CS2530 In Depth Review!" by Tractor Time With Tim). Just after the 5:30 mark he mentions they're offering a...

Morning - My 1026 had a 4:1 bucket with hoses coming from rear. The hoses coming from rear to front are really really long and wrap around the rear axle. Any direction on how the hoses should be routed and any tips on how to handle excess length

I have a 1980 Ford 340A Industrial. Had a bucket control issue today while scraping snow off of the road. The front bucket snagged a concrete seam and jarred the tractor. I was in 2nd gear, good speed. No hoses burst, no hydraulic leaks. But I lost all bucket lift and roll control. The 3...

Greetings, My bucket curl circuit developed a slight creep over the years and has gotten worse. I isolated the cylinders from the valve and the pistons held without ANY movement. Which led us to believe the bypassing is occurring in the valve. What was strange is the creep/ bypass stopped...

I have a Massey 2517 with backhoe and loader attachments. Just purchased it last August and it has 60+ hours on it. My issue is it does not seem to have the lifting power that the manual calls for. It is rated at 900lbs at the pins for the loader. I purchased a 600lb safe and it would not lift...

A friend years ago had a snow removal business and ran 2 Belarus 80+ hp tractors, a PTO speed increaser, hydraulic pump, tank and hydraulic snowblowers. First time he used it commercially it took a buried 2” branch chewed it up and spit it out the chute and it hit a 2nd story window and broke...

I just installed a replacement hydraulic adapter plate for my fel and my 3 point stopped working. My loader is off the tractor, I put the blocking plate back on to use the 3 point while waiting for the new plate. I removed the new adapter plate and reinstalled the blocking plate and the 3 point...

This is my first time owning and maintaining a tractor. It started leaking from the the hydraulic fluid drain port. Does the sealing shim need to be changed with each UTD fluid replacement? I saw no such requirement listed in the manual. What els could cause the leak? I did not leave it...

Does anyone have a diagram showing the location of the hydraulic temperature sensor? I need to swap mine out unfortunately and need some guidance where I can find it Thank you

Hi all, Along with my various deferred maintenance projects for my Jinma 354 I’ll have to swap out the transmission fluid (while I'm doing a brake job) and I’ll give the hydraulics one more flush as I had to open the three point lift mechanism. Is gear oil 80/90 gl-5 ok to use? I should mention...

Almost new tractor and I don't believe the remotes have even been used. Went to hook them up and one female won't accept the male fitting. One works just as it is supposed to but the other one you can't get the male into it far enough for the detent balls to engage. It is definitely that...

Hello to all, Does anyone know who makes this for Kubota? Obviously, Kubota is not in the refining business and has someone make it for them. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in-advance, tstex

I am seeing hydraulic fluid dripping from bottom of Hst unit. It appears to be coming from the top of the hst unit someplace. Does any one know if there is a vent or breather on top

I bought a NH 757C backhoe to put on my TC30. I have the rear mount and have to make the front mounts for the tractor - which isn't a big deal. My issue is I don't know how to plumb the hydraulics. The TC30 does have the loader with what appears to be the factory setup. Does anyone have the...

I have an old backhoe attachment for my tractor. I was made in Italy. These fittings are for 1/4" hose and have an inverted flare with 1/2"×20 female end. In other words, the flare is outward instead of inward on a jic connector. If anyone knows what the term is for these(besides...

Working with an LS mt225e. I,m adding rear remote ports, but i don't want to loose my backhoe ports. Currently to add/remove the "backhoe" i have to switch the hoses from the power beyond port from the loader valve to the manifold block. Can i put a "tee" at the manifold block side and run the...

I have a 2 stick setup on the backhoe. I have owned this unit since 1997. All of a sudden I am not able to lift the boom. I have plenty of pressure to make the boom go down as well as swing and every other function. It feels as if when I pull forward on the control it does not get full travel as...

I have been having issues with my tractor and I'm not claiming to be expert but willing to take a jab at learning.i can't afford to take my girl to a shop so yes I've been trying to diagnose myself with no luck . She starts and runs fine until I try to go loli found this pinned under my tractor...

My hydraulics on my Mitsubishi MT3201FD are weak. I’ve checked the usual suspects and they all seem fine. Is it possible to test the pump before I spring for a new one?

Hello, I guess I'm showing my ignorance with this post, but I need expert opinions. The photo shows the rear of my 4310. The red arrow is pointing to the two hydraulic couplings - does it, or do they have a special name? Is there any way that they can be used to run a hydraulic implement ...

Hello, I'm adding a MF-101 Loader to my MF-50. I ordered the pulley below and my crank pulley has what appears to be three holes with 3/8" threads. What bolts are supposed to be used? The bushings in the pulley I ordered are much larger (probably 1/2"). I've looked for shoulder bolts or...

I just finished completely draining and replacing hydraulic fluid and filters on my ck 25 kioti. Now it is not engaging . Barely moves and a whining sound.Looking for any idea's.

On the subject and not having to chase threads pertaining to them... There are a number of them listed on Amazon as well as on the Motion Industries website but.. Be apprised of the maximum working pressure as well as their physical size and what the thead size is as well. None of them are...

First time I tried to start up my old bolens g274 tractor from the mid 80’s this winter. Temps were below freezing for more than 24 hours beforehand. Around 20-25°f when I tried yesterday. She started just fine, as well as she ever does, but there was immediately a high pitch noise. Went to...

I'm trying to source hydraulic/transmission fluid for my 2015 HST. In the Transmission & Hydraulic Lubrication section of the owner's manual, it simply states STOU oil. In the Lubrication Table elsewhere in the manual, it lists 6 different kinds of fluid for the transmission: Citgo Transgard...

I bought a used Yanmar SA424 and immediately changed all fluids and filters. The tractor ran great all summer, but I was slow to address a small leak in one of the backhoe lines. I topped up the fluid in the fall, and noticed that the steering was stiff initially when cold, but would return to...

Ok, so this is for a small excavator, but my tractor people here know more than most... So please help if you're in the know... Got an ancient great condition yanmar excavator and need to add 2 cylinder functions. I could use solenoid diverters and steal the flow from the little used swing...

Hey. I just bought a AHM 1.3 T mini excavator on Ebay. I want to order a hydraulic thumb but there is a ton of them on Ebay and I don't know which one is the right one. If an ad says for mini excavator, would that work for any mini?? I appreciate your wisdom guys! Thank you

This is a follow up and another question about my backhoe hose replacement a Ford 755 backhoe on a Ford 4500 industrial. I have decided to do the hoses myself and I started looking at all the places to pour hydraulic oil so far if correct The differential the transmission and I just discovered...

What is everyone doing with your used hydraulic fluid? There are quite a few drop off locations in my area for used motor oil but can’t find anything for hydraulic fluid.

been a long time. My tractor has been sitting for way too long. I was hoping I could find somebody reasonable to replace my hydraulic hoses for my backhoe. I couldn’t. I have to do it myself. I have a 4500 Ford industrial with 755 backhoe The hoses that go under and up to the manifold seem very...

Hi all, I need Kubota YW232-91102 FEL spool rebuild kit. $212 for a half dozen o-rings and a nylon bushing is bloody robbery! Anyone know of an aftermarket source that has kits for Kubota?

I have to put new seal kits in my boom hydraulic cylinders and the New Holland dealer wants 250.00 each kit. Is there somewhere that is cheaper??

I've got an RK37SC and was using my RKT-60 RK T/S brush grapple on the FEL to roll a part of a large tree trunk down a hill to a brush pile that we are going to burn later. I had the grapple jaws open and was using the teeth of the "bucket" part of the grapple, pushing the trunk while lifting...

Hey guys, hoping y'all can help so I can figure out next step. Something got messed up on the tractor when I cleaning up a down pine tree on my fence line. I think it is likely not going to get covered under warranty so I want to try and fix it myself. If there is significant(expensive) damage I...

The book states this goes in the trans., and front differential, that's all it states, any ideas? I found trans. fluid and hydraulic fluid. Thanks in advance.

Looking for a pretty beefy hydraulic top and sidelink for JD 6120M. Rear lift is around 5500lbs and I want to ensure the links handle that weight easily. Need to feather out my land plane better, but want it to be able to handle anything else for the machine. I’d also like to have it spec’d...
