Hey Guys. Whats the recommended battery type for the 8011 and also will the power steering bleed itself when filled with new fluid. New to the forum. Thanks

UK number 643,and 2 batteries is probably your best option, not the highest output available, but reasonably priced.

What if the power steering does not bleed itself? Any solution? Mine does not and when I take the oil cap off, it see it is bubbling and I have to add oil drop by drop due to air bobbling out! I almost got shoulder dislocation trying to drive the tractor! Thanks

try jacking the front wheels off the ground then spin the steering from fully left to fully right and back again a few times.

I have done it many times after lifting up the front end using the loader! No luck so far!

It may be sucking air from somewhere, make sure all steering related fittings are tight
