Hello everyone. Need some help with a jcb 8015. I need to remove tha hydraulic tank but can't seem to get the left hand side to come out as i can't find the fixings. This unit also is contained within the cab. I have seen other posts about hydraulics and hoping someone can shed some light to remove this. I need to remove the tank as there is a hole in the bottom.

Thanks

Hello, thanks for coming back to me!

Year is approximately 2003-2005, the base is peppered so the oil is coming through these little holes more to the front than to the back. I don't think I can do anything unless I take whole tank out, unless you know of any other way. The holes are all over the front of the bottom. I'm guessing as I can't see until I remove the tank. It is dripping out as opposed to gushing so I'm guessing based on this. I don't think they are rubbed through but again without looking and removing it I can't tell. I can see it is rusted though which is what has peppered but i don't think it is all the way through if that makes sense.

Any help I would be really grateful!

cab or canopy? my tank's behind this panel so that'd have to come off and guessing all the seat box, etc.'d need to get stripped .. possibly floor panel too - side cover'd help and guessing the RH arm'll be bolted to it too

i think there are 2 little M 6 bolts in a bracket just above the suction pipe. Not sure if that is what you are looking for . Bracket that I am referring to is opposite side of the tank to v8 Druids photo above.

ordinarily i'd say I'll take a look ...... Pam'll cut my nuts off if I venture out for a look ATM though :rolleyes:
