Couple issues with my parents old backhoe. I was using it this past fall and ran the hydraulics really low to the point of the hoe barely working and jerky (the hoe side swing cylinder leaks bad!). Put me some fresh oil back in the next day and topped the system off. After 20-30 minutes of full cycle movement with the hoe I had full function back as all the air was passed. The front bucket on the other hand will not give in to me. I’ve cycled the control is every direction many times. I’ve cracked the lines while running and fluid does pump when I operate the control. I’m confident I just have air in the rams. But I cannot get it out!
Any tricks anyone know? No there is no bleeder on this unit. From what little I could find on the web people just cycle the unit and it will work itself out, as the hoe did.
