Hi!
I recently purchased a 2130 this spring and overall it has been working great. The other day I noticed hydraulic fluid leaking around the front axle. Taking a closer look at the pump, the leak appears to be coming from one of the bolts around the hydraulic pump housing. Below is an image of my pump after pressure washing. I circled the nut it is leaking from.
Looking at the exploded diagram of the pump it looks like the pistons are housed under the nuts. Since I always assume anything mechanical is spring loaded, can I take the nut off and replace the seal without messing anything up or does the pump need to be removed?
Thanks,
Julian
