I have a B3030 with Hydraulic angled front blade. While clearing my driveway with it I will occasionally see a very small amount of hydraulic fluid stain in the snow. Is this normal or could i have an intermittent leak?

What color is it, light orange? I have been noticing this as well with my B3200. It seems to intermittent and I can't find where it is coming from or if it is infact hydro fluid.

Check the fittings that the hoses connect to. I found one loose and dripping occasionally. Shouldn't be "normal" to be leaking.

doesnt sound like hyrdraulic. most likely its from the overflow tube of your coolant.
