Leaking hydraulic motors on the Jacobsen

[Baldbloke]

As per the the title, I noticed a puddle of hydraulic oil below one of the motors today. Moved the mower to do some maintenance on a vehicle and noticed it pissed out quite a lot just moving it 10 yards.

Do these things have replaceable seals or is it new motor time? Machine was bought quite secondhand about 6 years ago, and was a fair age by then. Hydrostatic drive, 3 gang mower. Cheers!

Hi is it from drive hub or mower motors? there are some on ebay Ernest Does a good contact or was as a main stealer i mean Dealer!

 

Which model is it? one we had was four wheel rear steer 3 double gang rotors so two motors on each platform to fail as they often did leaving a snail trail off half mowed grass!

Go to the Jacobsen website. It has an online parts manual going back many many years. You may well find a part number for a seal kit.
