The pump is under the cover directly in back of hte engine. Hood, fuel tank, lines, all have to be removed. Have you checked the fluid level?

 

[peteyrose]

thanks ,i did check the fluid level and it was fine,this tractor also has extra hyd remotes so thay would have to be removed also is that wright ?

You will need to remove the hoses from the valves to the rear remote couplers, but the valves themselves should not need to be removed. The valves can remain attached to the torque tube cover plate as you lift that plate to get to the pump. - Joe

thanks Joe can i rebuild the pump or better off replacing it?

 

[Joe Young]

Good question. I've never had to replace a pump. Someone else here can probably better answer that question. Good luck - Joe

Parts book shows a breakdown, but don't know if the parts are still available. The housings are aluminum & usually take a beating.
