MF 1533 hydraulic change

[mf94]

I changed the fluid in my tractor today but after putting fluid in I'm guessing I have air in the system because I have no power-steering and the bucket and rear won't lift up. Do these have a bleeder somewhere on them or should I keep working the bucket?

Did you get your answer on this? I just changed my fluid and filter today on my 1533 and encountered the same problem. Not sure exactly what to do. Thanks

There is a bleeder on the hydraulic pump. Do you have an owners manual? HST or Powershuttle?

On top of the hydraulic pumps located on the side of the engine is a round manifold tha tooks like a hockey puck. Loosen the screwand start the engine - tighten the screw after you quit seeing air bubbles. Don't loosen it too much or you will be getting an oil bath.
