I just bought a 720 Bobcat. It had blown the threaded nipple off for the smaller hyd. fluid filter. They replaced the housing but afterwards it would barely pull on the right side, the left side won't pull at all. It make s LOUD growling noise when you try to move it. It did move before this happened as I looked at it two weeks before I bought it. After this happened he lowered the price (naturally) so I took a chance and bought it. I'm thinking it's got air trapped in the system. If so, how can I bleed this out? I cycled the bucket several times and in the beginning it would hardly raise or tilt, it finally passed the air (I'm assuming) and it works great now. But it still won't pull. Any thoughts? I'm hoping it's air and not a pump!!!!!

I'm not familiar with a 720 but I do know those older Bobcats were a bear to get the air out of the system, the only advice I can think to give would be to put it up on jackstands off the floor, raise and block the loader arms up and loosen the lines at the drive motors then start it and cycle the steering sticks until you get oil under pressure coming out where you loosened the lines, please be careful if you dont feel comfortable doing this contact a professional.
