    Posted: 12 Jan 2024 at 5:36pm
Got a maroon belly 7060 that I’m changing the hydraulic filters on. Changed the right side first and had no problems, went to change the left and it appears to want to dump every last drop of oil out of the system when I pulled the filter out I put the cover back on and here I sit, wondering what to do next, is there a check valve that is not functioning or did I do something wrong when changing the right side? I have changed the filters on this multiple times since I’ve owned it and never had this occur. Thanks for any help!

Personally, I've never had it happen, but it sounds like the "spring loaded door" ain't working. 17 gallons of oil will continue to come your way.

You might want to get three clean pails and pull the three drain plugs underneath first, that is if you’re wanting to save the oil. It is a dirty job.

"Never had that happen?"  I'm surprised at that response. I've seen it more than once. And yes, the door "ain't workin". Only solution here is drain the tractor then pull the left filter and deal with the issue.

I learned to never trust the baffle. I remove the left cover ashort distance and give it a few seconds to see if the flow slows down before pulling it all the way out. If it doesn't, slam the cover back in and go to plan B. I use a fairly small pan when changing those filters. It's usually big enough when things go right, but when that door don't close it can overflow in just a short while.

Been there, done that. It's amazing how fast a hog pan can fill up when that happens. You will need to drain it and remove the left hand filter housing from the rear end and then fish out the pieces to put it back together. I think that one piece threads back on and I would tack weld it, if it were me.

definitely a messy job, but got it drained and I found this in the filter housing.
