B2784 chute rotator for B2782 snowblower, leaking hydraulic fluid badly

[smfcpacfp]

Does anyone know anything about this part? I can't find a manual or anything regarding it.

A hydraulic motor with 2 hoses attached.....where is it leaking? Seals or O-rings can get damaged if the motor is forced hydraulically past its stops or if the chute is frozen (iced) in place and the motor is forced.

Here is the link for Kubota's parts page for the B2784. If the motor is leaking they show a seal kit for it.

Thanks for the info. It is leaking around what looks like a blue seal (or O ring). I took the little shroud off that protects it from the elements but I didn't have any time to investigate. I first thought that I would see if the bolt that holds the gear on was loose before I took it off. The link to the kit above doesn't work, but I can check with the local dealer.

I did get the gasket set at the local dealer, but taking off the gear housing on top is proving to be a ***** (very tight).
