2006 S-175 Skidsteer I have a huge hydraulic leak somewhere? Its coming from under and in front of the engine.under the seat kinda. Is there anyway to access this area? Can I get at it by removing the interior of the machine? Any ideas before I start ripping things apart would be welcomed.

Just would have made it easier if someone that had done it before had helped out. I had a bit of a struggle finding the oil drain plug. Then I had some starting issues with fuel filter and didnt realize there was a pump up bulb on the line until after. Over filled the oil a bit.

Has anyone come up with a place to put a few tools in there Bobcats? I like to pack a light chain , hammer and a few other little items. (water bottle or thermos even) Theres no where to even pack a hammer.

the ex has a return to tank valve or the skidsteer does?

Im in the Cariboo , Williams Lake but work lots in northern BC.

Where you calling the boonies? I thought I was as far in the boonies as it gets?

Actually i have 2 compactors. Bught 1 from Boncat and thr other one private. Lots around for sale $4 -$5 thousand.

So ive done a bunch of research and it looks like you cant run a compactor on a skidster. A Bobcat compactor will only work properly on a Bobcat excavator. Something to do with the pressure or return lines. I got 10 diffrent storys from 11 diffrent sources.

Yes its smaller. Wht are "case drains"?
