To get to the filter take the cover off that has the PTO handle sticking out of it. Youll need to drain some oil and I put one wheel in a ditch to mkae the oil drain away, if you dont drain any then there will be a lot of oil all over the place! the filter is slightly further forwards on the inside. You unscrew the top and lift the whole assembly up from the bottom cup. Leave that cup and all of the gnge it has blocked will go straight in the pump intake - not very good. Theres a gear that slides back and forth to engage the PTO. Theres a bit on the end of the PTO lever on the inside that sits on a groove in front of the gear, getting that back in can be fiddly, but should go in if you dont move the gear. (this whole paragraph is putting the lever back in by the way!) I personally think that its more likely that the quadrant levers have come off the pump. If the filters blocked then it would probably still try and lift the arms, they would at least jump around a bit, unless its really badly blocked. Anyway, your probably right, check the simple stuff first! Ben
