Ok this is the first time out (driven) for the 2805 I bought it about seven years ago and its been parked up since.
Well I changed the hydraulic filters and light now seems to stay out.
Engine oil pressure sender unit body re-sealed and holding its oil.
Took tractor for a short run just to see how things were behaving, maybe three miles stopping a few times to check for leakes etc and yes it leaking oil from the plate where the top link of the 3 pnt is bolted onto the rear end so Im guessing an easy fix unless there is something else behind that plate.
Engine ran great, clutch and gears seem fine as is the steering.
Bigger issue though seems the rear end is heating what I think is way too much to the point you cannot keep your hands on it, particularly where Im guessing the brakes are housed. The other point is that the brake pedals have almost no movement befor they take hold, could they be binding and if so can they be adjusted as I thinking that 's what is generating the heat. Any advice welcome.
Thanks
