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 a bulletin in regard to a DK Anti-Cavitation Kit (DOCUMENT NUMBER: SB120924UC dated 12/24 revised 1/25)
Anyone familiar with this kit? Did it solve the problem?
I think there was a prior "kit" that added a long hose to the system, mixed responses if it worked

Has it done this since new? Has it had a recent hydraulic oil change….or maybe never?
