When you get ready to start it, just bump the starter a few times. If there is a hydraulic lock the engine will stop. Bumping means to just turn the key to start just enough to engage the starter then turn off. I would do it 5 or 6 times before trying to start. Radial engines on airplanes have a tendency to leak oil into the bottom cylinder. We pulled the propeller around a few time to check for a hydraulic lock and to get the oil out.

Hey guys. My mistake, broken leg, surgery, healing well. The tractor sat on its side on the down hill side for a week before I could get it hauled up.
My main concern now is what precautions I need to take before trying to start it (hydro lock etc).
2006 New Holland 21DA.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Dan

Hope you get healed up quickly and back in the saddle asap. Have you got it fired up again, already?? Good luck!!
