[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 2750, member: 82"] Sorry, filters as in engine oil and hydraulic/hydrostatic oil. It depends on the age of your machine if you have a suction line filter or not. Do you have like a square block on top of your hydraulic pump? or does it join to an aloy block on the side of the loader where the throttle is? If its the later one, it has no suction line filter. The filter in there is a bronze type, it can be cleaned but for the price, just replace it. Most of these get over looked and are never replaced. It will cause lower power of your hydrostatics and eventually it will not move from lack of oil (had that before). If it is the one with the port block on the pump. i think its the middle one on the left side (looking from the bucket). It will have a larger nut on the outside. The filter is hidden inside the block behind the nut. It has an O ring and spring behind it. Best to do this after you have drained your fluid too, or it will help with draining it. Any problems, just yell [/QUOTE]
