He shows the damage, hammers the filter back into shape as a field fix, and warns viewers about the filter's exposed placement and the value of keeping spares on hand. Best for existing B2401 owners doing brush work, not shoppers.
Posted by a hands-on operator (My Orchard Videos) doing paid mowing/brush-clearing jobs, sharing an unfiltered account of equipment damage rather than a polished review.
A hidden steel conduit in the high grass got picked up, wrapped around and struck the hydraulic filter, bending it and causing it to crack and leak.
He took the filter off, hammered it down, tapped the element on the inside back into shape, then added more hydraulic oil before putting the tractor back on the trailer.
No, the dealer did not stock the filter, meaning the owner had to wait about three days to get a replacement part.
The filter sits exposed near the axle with no guard, so debris like conduit or sticks picked up while mowing can easily hit and bend or rip it off.
