I am installing a hydraulic pump on my 190xt that went bad last year. I have placed the pump on the tractor and have no prime. Hydraulic fluid is full of fresh fluid. I started the tractor and cranked the wheel for 2 minutes and shut it off. How should I go about priming the pump? Thanks

Probably wrong but when I did mine I took the pressure line off the pump and ran it into a bucket I had fluid in about 2 seconds after start shut it off right away an had a couple quarts in the bucket hook the line back up started the tractor and rotated the steering wheel back and forth a few times haven't touched it since

I got it! I pulled the plug on top of the flow divider on the pack of the pump using a small funnel I would add a little oil the bump the starter 5 seconds and repeat about ten times until it took half a quart then started the tractor and then it shot a river of fluid. So I shut it down put the plug back in and away it goes all functions work 👍👍

Fill suction line under pump with oil before start up will help. MACK
