bleeding hydraulic steering system

[marline sexton]

I changed the hydraulic cylinder out on my New Holland TC35 and now I need to bleed the lines ..as it works sometimes and not. cant find anything on bleeding this particular set up..

The system should purge the air automatically just by cycling the cylinder from side to side.

I just replaced mine yesterday and it takes a minute or so to get fluid back into the cylinder. I lifted the front tires off of the ground with my loader bucket and just turned the wheel back and forth, all the way each time, until the tires responded. It only took a minute.

The fluid cycles into the cylinder and any air that is in there is forced out through the lines into the tank.

As long as you have not put a hose back in the wrong place.....

Happens often!
