Excellent video! It really explains why i have had su h a struggle with my IH 484! Thank you.

I changed the filter on my 574 when I was adding a loader to it. I also drained the hydraulic fluid and replaced it. Once completed I had no hydraulics. No steering, no 3 point, no PTO, no loader, on pressure to the hydraulic couplers. Retired I H mechanic suggested running the tractor slightly above idle in neutral, clutch out, then crank the steering wheel left then right repeatedly, took maybe 2 minutes to cure the air lock, got all hydraulics back.

Very nice tractor, nice to see it looked after

Thank you VERY much for taking the time and making the video.

Excellent video, very helpful. I would recommend removing the left wheel for easier access. For models with the XL cab you really have no other choice

I'll add a comment for people that have problems loosing the hydraulics entirely after the filter change. I had that problem on a 884, would not take a prime. I removed the filter, rechecked the o rings, let the tractor run for a while, tried cycling the steering. Nothing. Well it was winter and i figured it had to be the fluid was just to thick. Got out a torpedo heater pointed it at the filter housing till it was hot, that did the trick.

Great video, been told I should use red hytran hydraulic oil in all IH And Case tractors.

Thank you very much Sir. Great job explaining.

Great video - any guidance you may have on a 1975 IH 3500A would be greatly appreciated should you come across it. I just picked done up and am having some issues with it only going in reverse (whether engaged in forward or reverse) since a hose blew. (About 3 hours run time since that occurred)

Thanks good info 👍🏿

You glossed over the trickiest part. (Installing the O-ring). That’s why people are coming to this video.

Hey there. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos. I have a mystery and I’m wondering if you want to take a stab at it…. My Case 685 3 point arms go up and down without a problem, but as soon as I put an implement on it (or even some body weight), the arms will go up but then not go back down. Thanks again.

have an older IH 2400B...just changed the filter in same manner as you...lost about 2.5 gallon of oil...and refilled. Started tractor and no hydraulics...should I let it run for a while and "self bledd" as you said? All worked well prior...and I am concerned to not have a pump running dry...but I hear no "bad sounds". One fellow on a forum instructed...just keep using the hydraulics...lift arms, steering...and little by little it will come back. Sound reasonable to you?...my dip stick reads proper level and I didn't monkey with anything but the filter.

Nice video man! I just picked up a case 585 and I’m about to start maintenance on it. It lost the hydro dip stick though. What is the measurement on your dipstick and inches from the bottom to the high and low level? I just want to build my own.

You should always thoroughly clean the area around the canister before removing the filter canister. The point of the filter is to clean the hydraulic fluid, and if you don't thoroughly clean the surrounding area before removing the canister, you will knock dirt into the internal part of the hydraulic system. Most tractors will have a lot of dirt in the vicinity of the filter housing - much more than your tractor has. It may be necessary to pressure wash and dry the entire area before removing the canister.

I have a case ih 785xl and the servo direction is working hard . Can the hydraulic pump filter be the problem ? If not what ?

Finally warmed up a bit, but I don't think it will last! Next week looks cold again. Late first cut hay this year...

Is there a suction strainer on these tractors in addition to the cartridge filter on these tractors? Thanks

Hello I have got Case IH 633 from 1989 Please tell me where I can find hydraulic filter.

How long did you let it idle? before pumping breaks or steering? Does the PTO bleed itself?

Where do you refill the hydraulic fluid? I have a 4210 and can’t seem to find it.

What’s the third small o ring for ?

I removed the filter casing from an old 574 of my grandfather's today. I realized immediately something wasn't right. The mesh screen is missing from this tractor and the filter is just resting free in the canister. I can't find one of these anywhere on the net. Any help?

Does this apply to a 574

A common problem I have had with a CaseIH 5230, and a 885 on the brakes is the brake reservoir. There is a little aluminum tube on the break reservoir that keeps adequate oil level. Sometimes it will slide down a little bit into the return line that runs to the transmission. Causing no oil in your brake reservoir. Then you wont have any brakes. You have to slide that back up and take a torch and heat the plastic so it won't slide back down on you. Then bleed the brakes like I imagine I will see in the next video.

When i tried to change the hydraulic filter on my 585, it poored out a lot of oil when I removed the first bolt. Felt like I was draining the whole system?

I see that you didn't show putting the large o ring in it's not easy did change mine last week on case 685 one think I've learnt the panel comes off didn't know that did mine from underneath

So nobody ever talks about (or in the manual) what to do when you lost hydraulics after the filter change. ....

What fluid do you use?

Cómo purgar para que ande todo ? Cambie el filtro y ahora no me anda nada 😢

Not as easy on a cabbed tractor, rubber mats and less access through the door Have to do it from underneath
