Iseki TX1500F bleed valve

iseki1959 · Apr 8, 2023

Hi, I changed the oil for the hydraulics. Now the 3 point hitch arms sre not lifting. I suspect air in the system. Can anyone printout the bleed valve. I have looked and tried various bolts & nuts. Any help is appreciated. Thks

Try just little shot of air in the fill hole while running and 3pt lever 3/4 way up.

Do the other hydraulic functions operate correctly? Wonder if the pump did not prime after changing oil. Did you replace any filters? 3 point should not require any bleeding to get air out.

Put a shop vac on blow. Put the end of the hose over the fill hole to increase the pressure driving oil to the pump. Sometimes this can be enough to get things started

Apologies for a slow response. Great idea with the vac, sadly I don't have reverse vac. So, I waited for my wife to go out and borrowed her hair dryer! It sort of worked but the arms are very slow and erratic (not as slow as hers when she found out). I will clean out the filters again and see if that helps.
