5625 oil leak....Just remembered something...I had a 4625 for years, had an issue once with major oil leak- on the hydro pump that hooks to the engine. When that unit gets worn, it leaks high pressure oil into a chamber with a thin steel cover on it. Cover is just over an inch square? Cover bulges. Straightened it once, put in new gasket, bulged/leaked again. I replaced the cover with heavier HM one, maybe quarter inch thick. Didn"t leak before I traded the machine, maybe two years later.

Drop the belly pan to see where the leak is coming from. Mine leaked enough that it wouldn"t move itself.
 
Thank you sir, will certainly do that first!! This is also a 4625 - one of the earlier models, I think. Can't say what the serial # is though, as it's been scratched off. Was a good buy in my opinion, but would have liked to have the throttle lever working - it's rusted in place.

When I bought the loader, the guy happened to also have an original Owner's Manual that he gave me, plus it still had a full tank of fuel. Was also able to download a PDF copy of the Service Manual.

Will look on both for that pan you mentioned, as well as about the Belly Pan. Was thinking I'd have to tilt the cab to access that area - and probably should anyway just to take a peek.
 
It"s easy to tilt the cab- just remove the two bolts in the front corners, and lift. If the gas cyl are working it"s an easy lift. (I"m 73- just lifted my 5240e) What I don"t like about my current one is...it has 3 small panels underneath, instead of the one long one on the 4625...that one was totally open underneath when it was removed.

BTW- you don"t want to have to rebuild the hydro pump...mucho spendy!
 
Belly pan is two half-inch bolts, front and back. Helps to have a wood block on the ground to catch the pan so it doesn"t drop too far before you remove the bolts on the other end. Same with install, holds it up some.
