I changed the oil in my motor to get that spring out, which I must say, I got out. I also changed the hydraulic filter. I went along to see my local garage, to see what specs, their products cross reference too.I told them that this machine uses the same oil in the motor and hydraulics. They rang the oil company and they sent through Halvoline Synthetic blend SAE 10w-40. I drained the oil from the motor, new filter, and new oil. Replaced hydraulic filter, which i filled with oil before screwing it back. Refilled hydraulic tank, until I could see it on the site glass, which was about a litre. Started up and ran motor for about 3 minutes. Worked the bucket up,down, tilt, and back several times, but the hydraulics keep groaning. I didn't work them for too long, before shutting it down. There seems to be bubbling in the tank, which can be seen through the site glass. I let it settle a while and tried again, but its the same. I got drive, but lifting seems to be a struggle. Firstly, is this oil okay, and secondly should I just keep lifting up and down til it comes right. I did'nt want to do it too much incase I did some damage. Thanks in advance Steve</p></blockquote><p></p>
