Hi all - I did all my fluids last year with major accessories off, and have only mowed and bagged since. It made such a difference in the transmission! Anyway, do not want to contaminate this now fine working assembly! I managed to manually flush the loader before re-attaching it.

How would I flush the backhoe? It doesn't seem quite as simple as the loader was... (power beyond?). if I had to (last resort) I would disconnect each cylinder, but is there a faster or smarter way? If I did cylinders, could I push quick connect valves and wiggle levers to drain hoses, etc - or do I need to do each hose/valve at block?

THX!

We have had many people tell us the difference in their tractors after a fresh flush but the easiest is to just run it back in to the system as it isn't that much oil and it would be a pain to undo the fittings or hoses to drain the cylinders and hoses.

It isn't that much oil to mix!
