leaking joystick valve dk55

[bbtaxidermy]

I have a major problem with my joystick valve leaking around the spool caps I am forever tightening them and when the loader is used they always leak. Two days ago I loaded 100 round bales or so and the leak was real bad very high pressure spray from caps any time the bale was on and I was moving loader any suggestions on a cure for this problem. Thanks, Wes

Well, I don't have a solution to your problem, but my grandpa's new Kioti hystat's spool connectors leak too....leaked from pretty much day one. He also has a bit of a power loss problem - he plans on taking it in after the first of the year. Still under warranty, so it's not too big a deal.

thanks for the reply, My Kioti is out of warranty unfortunately or I would take it in I was sure hoping that one of the hundreds of members would maybe have had the same problem but I guess it is my just my luck to have some kind of weird problem thet no one has had before. Thanks, Wes
