Recently I lost a main hose and all the oil out of the hydro system, I replaced the hose and refilled the hydro oil and changed out the hydro filter. Started the machine and after about 15 min the replace filter warning light came on. I assumed that i just stirred up something. So today I again replaced the filter and the light never even went off. Am I missing something, why won't the light of off. I don't want to mess up anything but I hate to just keep replacing the 60 dollar filter over and over.

You didn't acciedent;y knock the wire off the sender on the filter housing did you? The filter light should come on ehwn it thinks the filter is blocked. This sender is normally screwed into the filter housing to detect pressure difference.
Hopefully it's a simple fix like that.

Thanks for the tip that seems to be the ticket.
