    Leaking hydraulic ram on the front loader of a L295DT

    Repairing the cylinders on my LA272 wasn't rocket science and most anyone with basic mechanical skills can accomplish it fairly easily. I doubt many rural shops would have the seal that goes inside the piston assembly. it is lipped on one side and has to be put in exactly the same way the old...

    Hydraulic system flush.

    Not to "BUMP" but I found the ingress point for water contamination in the rear end. Some dummy forgot to replace the cap - rubber plug - the last time oil was put in. I usually tilt the seat up to keep rain from seeping into a couple of cracks in the seat. Of course this left the exposed port...

    Hydraulic system flush.

    Bought this orange beast without any manuals or documentation. It is probably a 1984 or something. I've no idea of the capacities nor where the low spots are to drain out the old fluid. Just called the local TSC and their 5 gal hydraulic oil sells for $25. Probably should buy two ? ? ? I've...

    Hydraulic system flush.

    I'm sure this has been discussed numerous times but I can't seem to find it and I am in a bind. My B7500 with a LS 272 FEL developed leaks in the tilt cylinders on the Loader. Upon disassembly found the hydraulic oil to have evidently been contaminated with water or condensation. In other...

    B7500 losing power

    Thanks for the response! All of you were on the right track but what the "LUGBOLT" put me on to was the exact solution! I opened up the filter can and although it didn't look "too bad" I took it out cleaned out the canister and snapped it back in place without the filter. As soon as I started...

    B7500 losing power

    The air starvation might makes some sense. I've only done minimal service. I don't do dusty mowing or heavy digging or grading with the FEL. I do some toting back and forth, but no really hard usage. I usually put about 3 or 4 gallons of fuel a month so it isn't stale. I buy it at the...

    B7500 losing power

    My beat up B7500, along with hard starting has developed a reluctance to run over 1250 RPM. Push the throttle on up and it acts like it is flooding. Pours out black and white smoke I did research the B7500 thread but no joy there.

    Loader does not tilt

    Or if you intend to replace the cylinders. Kubota thinks they are solid gold. OEM Seal kits aren't easy to get either. Can I post here where I finally found my seal kits for my LA272 loader?

    Source for hydraulic cylinder seals......

    I found the "kits" on Coleman's search by the kit numbers. There seems to be 2 different numbers with two extremes in price. The 1st kit is 75536-63400 and that is for SN.15303 @ $35 something The 2nd kit is 75536-63600 and that is for SN.15304 @ $65 something I have no idea what the...
