 ok, so I bought the 715 backhoe got it home and now the motor runs, ( good) thanks to the help I found here,checked the hydraulic fluid and added 5 gallons,started up and there is barely any power in the hydraulics I could only scrape 6 inches of gravel and the swing was nearly none existant.all the backhoe movements are very very slow and week. then kapow there goes a line and all the hydro fluid. I  must sound dumb but this is my first machine  and I  got it for a good price. I know I have to replace the line but where do I go from there to make this machine run good again. I am definately going to need some help I hate chasing my tail I figured on lines braking but not the lack of power.

Sounds like the oil is being directed somewhere other than doing the work. Maybe a valve mostly stuck wrong. I don't know where to find the problem but if it made a line fail, there is pressure. Unless, the line was really bad.  See if the valves are centered in the stroke, well.

Syster is a regenerative system and part of return flow ends up back on input side . This speeds up the process of swing and boom movement.
 as far as using bucket swing to move dirt , it works but is not a good idea to get in habit of doing. Swing clinders are small and not made for pushing dity into holes or trenches. Besides it puts a lot of strain on machine pivot points .
 Outrigers should lift machine with no problem, boom should also lift machine, and swing should be able to move machine when it is lifted with boom.
 As far as dig force of dipper or bucket that will depend on soil or pull force of dipper. When curling the bucket you should be able to fill it .
 Also see where pins are set on bucket as one position will limit dig force .

 The loader moves great dipper and boom also move good ,but the swing is slow to non existant also the right side out rigger will not lift the machine. It will hold machine up just not lift it.  none of theses cyclinders are leaking .I checked the controls and they are a little loose but centered,do you think the swing spool valve assembly is just clogged ? I beleive the out riggers are on the same assembly. does any one knows a good place to buy parts for this spool valve if need be?

Sounds like it might be internal leakage on cylinders. As the valves close both ports when in neutral position cylinder would not leak down but bypass internaly. The piston in cylinders is held on with nut and has a "O" ring seal behind piston to shaft. Also the piston it's self has a "H" ring seal on both sides of the bearing material on piston.

I sure do like the shuttle !!!!

sounds like one of the spools, is not returning to center. Start with the main boom valve. If that one isn't in the center. Don't think the swing rams work

 Thanks found the problem , took the swing valve apart . the  system releif valve had a dried up broken oring blocking the ports.disassembled it cleaned it all out replaced all the orings  on all the valves and its alot better. I now get full left to right swing seems to be working now . luckily the spool was in excellent shape no scratches or scores. Does the loader regenerate w/ the swing theres a bad cyclinder leak I am thinking maybe its sucking some air in there ?

I believe it is mainly on hoe so dipper and boom movement is faster , it my be on loader also so when raising or lowering one does not have to wait for all oil to be suplied by pump.
