Hydraulic leaks

[Amfab]

Do you put them on the op and bottom of the fitting?

thx, just got my hose yesterday, a take off as well...

White4768, I am curious about your routing solution to prevent this from happening again

I sent it under the right side frame rail and turned the other hose to match it. Worked out good

Any one else have a hydraulic line burst right under the floor mat? It was pinched between the floor board and the frame and the forward pedal pedal pivot was was rolling right under it you can see it in pic 2. It all most cut the hose in half.

I've had my TX25 for about 10 months now. I have had numerous leaks. Every connection on the grapple was only hand tight. I had a leak on the loader return line that leaked from the factory crimp. I had a leak on the backhoe supply line that leaked 3 gallons before I got off and saw the huge puddle under the tractor; this line was also only hand tight. I would recommend checking every connection for tightness when you first get your machine because obviously there is no QC check on the hydraulic fittings before they leave the factory.

Just had same problem 4 days ago trying to bring fire
Up. Called summit right up very late in the day and they
Said 2 or 3 days to get a new one here in mid Michigan.
It's Friday and hopefully it shows up soon.

Update. Summit is alive again!
Hose finally came early Monday afternoon, was the correct one too. Not too bad of a job swapping out
with cut hose, (thanks to friend Tom). Rerouted hose a little and shouldn't be a problem again.
