I have been looking in the threeds and Tm but so far unable to locate it. I am in a rush to beat the weather so can some tell me a short form version of how to do this

3---turn wheel lock to lock,
4---check reservoir , add if needed
5---turn lock to lock 4 or 5 times
6--- check reservoir, add if needed

The power steering works now. only two things left on the M246 the PTO for the wrench is not turning the shaft. And the second thing is getting a light switch.

are you sure the pto is in gear, there is 2 forwards, 2 neutrals, 1 reverse

the pto leaver only clicks one time, and then it become really hard to move
