B7200D Leaking Hydraulic Oil

[John99]

I cleaned the hydraulic screen per the owners manual and replaced the O-rings with Kubota parts. It had been slow dripping oil past the old oil inlet pipe o-ring on the inside. Now it leaks worse and both are leaking. They look to be properly seated and I cranked down the screen nut all the way. I'm very frustrated. Any helpful ideas are welcome. Thanks

Might've pinched the O ring(s) when reinstalling.

Thanks but the rings look ok. Now the screen nut does not want to go all the way down like it did the first time. Cleaned the threads but no help.

It's really easy to pinch the orings and/or cross thread the screen.

More than likely, you will need to loosen the front of the line as it's binding.
