B7100 Hydrualic Filter Thread Size?

[OrangeOtis]

Does anyone know the thread size for the hydraulic filter screen bolt on the non-HST B7100?

In my attempt to do proper maintenance on my new (to me) B7100 it appears I cross threaded the case threads a bit. New filter bolt on the way and I'd like to run a tap in the hole to get it straight again.

Luckily I didn't force it after I noticed what was going on, so its not too bad.

Not sure of the exact thread size But do know its a fine BSPP thread and very difficult and expensive to get a tap for it for a single use.

Take the old Banjo / filter screen fitting, cut off the filter portion and the bad end thread if they are not strait, cut slots in the threads to make a great thread chaser.
