low hydrolic level bx 24

[riverhunter]

Well its sunday and got a full days work for tractor. Checked fluid levels and hydrolic fluid does not even reach stick. No way to get kubota fluid today on sunday, is there some kind I can add without damaging tractor. Thankyou.

If you are checking the fluid level w/both the BH & FEL on make sure that the BH is in the transport position w/the outriggers up and the FEL is flat on the ground. You can get a low reading if the FEL is raised and/or the BH's outriggers are down or the dipperstick is extended.

The best way to take a reading is put the BH into transport position, insert boom pin lock in & raise the outriggers, lower the FEL, shut off the engine then cycle both the FEL and BH's joysticks to relieve all the pressure then take a reading.

When you dismount either make sure you relieve the pressure before you disconnect the fittings.

Your BX24 comes w/SUDT and you don't want to mix in any other type with it.
