Mostly snow clearing, and probably don't put more then 30 hours a year on it. I've owned it for approx 3 years.   During the last 25 hours or so I have developed a hydraulic leak. Probably have to add about 1/3 qt or so every 3 hours. Problem is I just can't find it!there doesn't seem to be any fluid coming from anywhere. Yesterday I saw that one of the axle seals was leaking fluid. I decided to check the chain case fluid level and when I removed the plug from the front, oil came rushing out. So evidently my chain case is over filled…..so here's the question:   Can hydraulic fluid somehow leak or seep into the chain case even though it's a separate system?  Sorry if this is a stupid question, I am pretty mechanically inclined, but don't know too much about the Bobcat skid steers.Again..awesome site!  thanks in advance.Wade</blockquote>
