    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    I go lazy and ordered the parts to plumb gauge from Amazon. Should have it when I’m home from work, and will try. I did get 1/8 bpst adaptor. I just want to make sure, but the thermostat switch is the one further back on the tractor, and the vacuum switch further forward?

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    Quick question about the vacuum gauge. Is there any reason I couldn’t add a braided line to get the gauge up near the cockpit so I can monitor while I run? was going to get 1/8 bspt to 1/4 npt elbow to braided line to a gauge.

    Okay, thank you very much for the assistance. I’ll try and figure out tread size on that switch, find a gauge and get it plumbed in.

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    I didn’t do finger test, but I did change out a hydraulic coupler right after parking and fluid was warm but not hot. Now, that fluid near the coupler probably wasn’t circulating where temps would be higher. I have not tested switches, haven’t found an explanation on how to test, only theory of...

    General answer would be it’s an ‘Easy Checker’ system light that is meant to indicate a constriction in the system, typically hydraulic filter. Per the WSM I’m browsing it is detected via a vacuum switch and a thermostat switch. Really hope it’s not the vacuum switch as they are discontinued...

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    Well, got lucky and found the plug under the floorboard on top of the trans case. Hooked up a 15ft bushhog and spent a few hours mowing. I got to about the end, and my hydraulic pressure light came back on. This is with a fresh filter and fluid. I have a screen and gasket for the power steering...

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    With the part not being in drawings, I guess it may be a big ask to see if anyone would know the part number? Otherwise, I’ll take some measurements when I get home and cut something to size I suppose. thank you for the response.

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    Well, after a new filter and fluid the hyraulic pressure light went away. I do have another question if someone could answer? what is this open hole in my transmission casing with access through the cockpit floor? Missing dipstick? As I drove the tractor I think some fluid sloshed out.. trying...

    M6950- Hydraulic screen?

    Hi folks, Just found this forum while looking for parts, and was hoping someone would be willing to answer a question or two.. I bought an M6950 DTS a couple months ago, after getting tired of dealing with local JD dealers. Tractor has low hours, 560, and barn kept, but I’m running into typical...
