 Topic: ca hydralic oil
Posted: 15 Jan 2024 at 1:03pm |

I added a loader to my CA and a 6 ft. back blade. My question is do I raise both items to the max and then top off the oil level.

normally you fill with both implements setting on the ground in the rest position... Operated them both up and down to make sure the cylinders are purged of air.. then set on ground and fill.

I've seen it both ways myself. Many times on tractor implements they want the cylinders fully stroked and the reservoir level brought to the marks. Seems backwards to me unless they are sizing the reservoir just large enough for the purpose in space constraints.

If you had the operators manual for the CA tractor, you would find it reads: Have the tractor rams Extended and the Loader Bucket Resting on the ground. Fill Hydraulic system to the FULL mark on the bayonet gauge and then add ONE extra quart of oil.
For any piece of equipment that you wish to operate and care for correctly, you should have an owners manual.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

You're not bothering anybody. Some of the old cogers claround here can be quite testy. They seem to forget we were all new to equipment at one time or another and they seem to think they need to get all fired up at new guys. And seem to forget, some of these old manuals, especially for loaders can be extremely hard to find after 60+ years. Get yourself a manual and read it thoroughly, and don't let anyone scare you away from asking a question.

Yep, that's right Paul, everyone has or knows where to get owners manuals for attachments most people scrapped 20 years ago. Good grief, I don't think the additude is necessary. Give the guy a break.

I don't have any documentation for a loader, but the base manual says to check oil with the lift arms extended (top it off). It also says that on the dip stick.

I have a loader on my D15. I raise all my arms up, bucket as high as it'll go. (Like 48" stroke in 1 1/2" bore) and fill to the bottom line. Then drop it all to the bottom. Usually get a little coming out the fill of I use it hard right away. And the leaks in the system usually set it right soon enough and I'm off to the races.
