Loader B219 Loader - how do you relieve the pressure?

[grandmajo]

Hi all,

I recently purchased a B6000 that has a B219 loader on it. I'd like to change the hydraulic oil out in the loader. I downloaded a manual online and reading through it, it says to make sure to relieve all pressure before disconnecting lines. May sound like a dumb question, but I'm a novice at this. How do you relieve the pressure?

Thanks!

Just lower your loader down, turn off your tractor then move the joystick around will relieve the pressure on the lines. I don't get change the loaders hydraulic fluid.

Ok, another question, it says to flush reservoir and clean screen. But it doesn't say what to flush or clean with? And is the screen supposed to come all the way out?

I'm changing fluids in the machine because I suspect that the person I bought it off of didn't do it or have it done for several years.

I don't own or know about your tractor to help. This reply will give it a bounce and hopefully someone in the know will see it.
