re: Mechanically Inclined/Lawn Service Individuals - ? About Hydraulic Pump

On a Dixie Chopper, they say to never move mower when not under its own power. Damage to the hydraulic system can occur. The dealer told me I would have to loosen a bolt in the oil system that is like an emergency by pass if the mower needs to be pushed or pulled. Just a heads up on some hydraulic systems. How many hours on the mower, my chopper needs hydraulic filters and fluid changed every 1000 hours.

The leak at the pressure relief might have been from the locked up pulley causing the pump to dump some oil at the relief valve. Check all the other belt hubs that they are free and not going bad too.

Thanks Tiger2.
Not sure of exact hours on system currently. I have changed filters and fluids on it previously. Mower 1s 10 years old and original pumps...may just be time for them to wear out.
