MF 6190 losing oil

[MrA.G.]

As title, our 6190 is using back end oil. We put 20 litres in it last week and it is low again. No sign of any external oil leaks. It has done a good weeks work but noting excessive and none of the implements were using it. Where is it going and how do we sort it?

Done any trailer work ,might be losing it through a brake ram

 

[masseybreaker]

no where for it to go in tractor apart from the floor what machines have you been using ?

Looks like the tractor has a tandem hydraulic pump, is it possible to leak from one circuit to the other ?

 

[masseybreaker]

there is only one oil for all the back end of the tractor there is no where for it to go unless on the floor or into the machine its towing

Could you been using implements with empty rams?

 

[MrA.G.]

Thanks for the feedback. This past week the tractor has been on a dumper moving stone, on a bunning spreader and then mowing grass. No sign of loss through any of the implements. In any case it has been a noticeable problem for a while now. The odd drip here and there from hydraulic couplings etc but 20l over a few days would be seen on the ground especially with the yards being so dry. From your responses I’m guessing there are no secret voids it could be escaping to

Floor chain drive motor could be leaking on the Bunning but the gearbox will never hold 20ltrs!!! it's not been on a slurry tanker has it?

No slurry tanker work recently. Buckrake work tomorrow so I’ll have to top it up as it will probably lose the steering as I reverse up the clamp
