Warming Hydraulic System Oil

Hydraulic system may be slow in function when tractor is started in cold weather. This is because cold oil will not flow easily through the filter screen or hydraulic system filter (A).

Steering is also slow until system warms up.

Hydraulic system will function normally when oil warms up.
