[QUOTE="Eric lyle, post: 124285, member: 22760"] Hello, hoping for some guidance here. I have a bobcat 440 and I want to change out the hydraulic fluid do to the fact that it has foamed up and started overflowing. Im hoping this was do to running low on fluid. I added fluid but it has still foamed up and overflowed several times.I figured changing fluid and filter is the easiest thing to check first. I've been using Oreilys premium universal tractor fluid. Any help is greatly appreciated. My questions are: 1, am I correct in thinking that after that much air has entered the system it needs to be replaced because you can't get the air out? 2, is this brand of fluid ok to use? 3, is there a better option other than bobcat fluid? 3, how does one drain all the old fluid out. My maintenance book says drain the Reservoir but I don't see how to get the rest of it out. [/QUOTE]
