[QUOTE="cowman82, post: 1845633, member: 43599"] I bought a used '09 JD 5093 off the original owner. It has 2500 hrs on it and looks brand new. All filters and maintenance done. I got it delivered at midnight last year and started baling the next afternoon with it. When baling it was really loud opening/shutting the tailgate (hydraulic groan).. When turning the wheel it would hiccup (*wheel kinda resisting at you turn). Loader up down it would groan. etc.etc.. Well.. as I'm checking it out.. I still see they have the original hydraulic filter on there! Never changed the fluid and never cleaned the rear screen! Now I know why they sold it. With all the other maintenance the only thing I can think is that they just didn't know to do it? Anyway.. I flushed the system, cleaned the screen and change the filter. It helped a lot. Very little groaning / hiccups but it still makes some slight hydraulic noise. My question.. I heard a JD tech say to fill it with Kerosene and run it a bit, then flush it out. I have put almost 250 hours on it and I'm going to change the hydraulic filter and fluid again. Do you guys think I should do a Kerosene flush and if so how should I do that? Fill it with the same amount as the hy. fluid and drive it for 10 - 20 minuets? or ? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
