I had a 2385 rip off the nut inside the cylinders on the dipper stick. No leaks, no noise, no nothing. This machine belongs to an experanced hoe opperator. I replaced the cylinder for the man... that's the first one I have heard of having that problem..

Looks like this maybe the second and I wasn't working her hard.

Hope this doesn't happen to the other cylinders /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Yes, I do too. Let's hope it was just a weak one. John

Got back to the dealer today... as expected it was the nut on the end of the cylinder shaft.

He said it was probably due to backing into a tree or some other object.

May have been a tree, as if been working, removing stumps.

Never knew I hit one!

This is the second one that has done it to him.

Hope mine is the last for both of us.
