[QUOTE="Needamow632, post: 118545, member: 21472"] Hello, I’m new here to the forum. Recently my dad and I bought an old 1977 bobcat 632. It runs great and everything worked but the hydraulics were weak. I went ahead and replaced the hydraulic oil filter and copper filter. Now the arms and bucket work great with plenty of power, but the machine won’t move. After lifting the machine off the ground I’ve figured out that the wheels move forward and backward but if I grab a tire they’ll stop. They’re very weak. Our guess is there’s air trapped somewhere, but I can’t figure out how to get it out as it seems to be a closed system. I should also mention that the hydraulic oil is at the proper level. There were no metal shavings inside the filter so I doubt anything blew up inside. None of the hydraulic lines are leaking. I’m new to the world of skid steers so any help is appreciated. I’ve got a landscaping business so I’d like to get this thing working and make some 💵 with it lol. [/QUOTE]
