Hi I was 3 degrees last night i let it warm up a bit then started the machine while letting it warm up all the sudden the was a lot of hydraulic oil The filter blow open. so my question is was there water in the system and the only place i can see to let moisture in is on the back hoe ram should i be spraying the rams so the seals don't dry out? And if so how do i remove all the moisture? thanks

What kind of fluid are you running? Kubota makes a Super UDT fluid that might flow a little better. When it’s really cold hydraulic fluid gets thick and that could have been the problem.
Hey Thomas about 300 hours / 5 years Hi Dave i do believe it was some less expensive oil now i have the super udt in it. I removed the oil plug and moved the pistons on the backhoe and front bucket and steering wheel to try and remove all the fluid. I guess i'll have to see what happens.
