I have a DAEWOO DSL 601 skidsteer with 2500 hrs. Blew a hydraulic line when I bought it, so I replaced it then it blew another so I replaced all of them down at the bottom and cut the metal feed/return pipes off the side of the tank and replaced them since one was starting to seep. Anyway, machine is running, I can move the bucket (slowly) but I don't have any movement with lift arms. I use the bucket to push off the ground and then hit the pedal for lift and it moves because of the pressure but won't lift on its own. Some I do this as far as I can get it over and over and moved bucket around while in air but bucket still slow and arms won't go on their own. I know these machines are supposed to be self purging but I can't get any air out that I can tell. There's a plug on top of the pump that I took out and get steady fluid (not while it's running of course) and fluid level is good. I'm able to drive the machine and steer so I'm thinking of cracking open the banjo bolt on the distribution block that controls the arms to see if any air comes out or should I crack the line open at the cylinders instead (probably a better idea). I'm pretty good mechanically but this one is irritating me and you sure as hell cant find any manual or info on DAEWOO skidsteers. I even called the DOOSAN dealer since they bought DAEWOO and they don't have any info. Any ideas are appreciated. I'm going to try to attach a pic or two of engine bay.

Have a look at the Daewoo section here, there isn't a skidsteer manual, but maybe a wheel loader or excavator manual will help to understand the hydraulic architecture. They usually tend to keep the same design across platforms if they can.
You have to manually enter all of the html coding for pictures (or any formatting, for that matter), and have them hosted somewhere on the web. You can create an album here, see the photos tab above.
