Front loader Hydraulics Looking for Guidance

[stumpkicker 0]

I have a D-160 Wheelhorse with a Hydraulic loader. Seems the two front bolts that hold the front axle on didn't have nuts on them and the axle fell off during use. Cutting the Hydraulic line. Lost all fluid. How to bleed the lines to make the system work again, Or do I need a new pump?

Thanks Jimmy G Toledo area Ohio.

top off the fluid and work the cylinders to the stops both ways a few times and the air will be out.

That's what you need to do and also keep checking the level of oil as you go. It will take a bit of oil to fill up the hoses and cylinders. It will take a little while to work out ALL the air bubbles.
