question Zetor Crystal 8045 hydraulic problem

[diyfarmer]

leaking out the thread on top from the sector shaft how is best to fix that is there a seal in that or just the thread tension to stop oil leaking from there ?

Maybe I read your question wrong Damo, is the leak out the top under the radiator? if so it looks like I have said in last post. or is it leaking out of the distributor, that is where the steering shaft yokes onto it.

Yes its out the top around the tabed nut directly under radiator can i pull all that apart while box is in tractor ? I will try with it in first ? Is it a special seal in there i have to get ? Would you have an exploded picture of the steering box ? I havent had much time on it lately doing bits and peices when i can .

I only ever took off a distributor to replace for a new one, I never took apart the actual steering box,I took off the whole thing and bought it to a main dealer to repair as was leaking too. Yes I have a picture of it in pieces, If you want to show your email I will send it to you. you can hide it again afterwards.


By the way the power steering holds 7 litres of ATF oil

Thanks diy farmer the info was good. To fix it properly you do have to remove the steering box but i managed to remove the nut and put an O ring and grey selastic under the the nut it has stopped the leak for now for good i hope .
I sent you an email with a photo can you tell the year of the tractor from that plate ?
I have finally managed to put the front end back on and it is all working great i will give it a workout this weekend see if anymore problems / leaks show up

Just to double check you have pushed the lever for hydraulics which on your right and closes to the seat, slide it all the way back towards the window and hold there to engage, now you should be able to hear the pump humming and also the engine will sound under pressure. you also see the hyd couplings vibrate on the back.




There is a flow control knob under the seat make sure it is not wound into the last it will stop the arm lifting.

where is the flow control know pic would be good

It's under the seat slightly to the right side, it's round and made of alloy. If t's all the way screwed in the lift arms are locked up and won't go down.
