Hoping someone can help me out. I’ve done some searching on here and can’t find an answer. I have a BX1880 and There is what looks to be a red button behind the top link above the PTO. Is this actually a button? What does it do? I couldn’t find anything in the manual.
Thanks for the help

By chance are those covers on grease fittings? Look at the manual for grease fitting locations. If a true button have no idea.

It is the vent for the hydro unit. Just keep it clean so it doesn't get plugged. My BX2350 has one, too.

Anyone know if the 60-series has one of these? I've never noticed anything behind the top-link, but then again, I've never looked either. Would it be in the same location?

Do not take it off. It’s a vent. Keep it clean.
