I just dumped a bale and attempted to tilt the bucket back up. No response when pushing the pedal. Drove it back in the barn and lowered the arms. Tried lifting the arms and tilting the bucket. Neither work. I found a leaking hydraulic hose and replaced it. Then I topped off the hydraulic fluid. It took a little less than 5 gallons (I hear it's 13 gallon capacity). Started it up and tried the pedals again. Nothing at all. I disconnected a hydraulic hose just above the bucket and tried the pedals again to see if I needed to bleed it out. No effect at all. Where do I go next?
 
I don't really know the answer but I'd certainly check to see if the pump is still dry from being so low on oil. Crack open the inlet pipe connection into the pump to see if you have oil. It's the top connection I think, the one that comes from the oil filter and has the fat rubber hose.
