cab tilt hydraulic failure

Today when I went to tilt the cab some hydraulic bit failed and sprayed fluid all over the engine. I switched off the air/hydraulic pump and tried with the hand pump and still same result.

I did my best to figure out where it was coming from. Just under the cab latch it was soaked and everything below that. The line going to the latch was dry at the fitting.

Where should I go look to figure out what ruptured?

Most likely you need to rebuild the cab latch - there are two different styles...one with a single o-ring and one with two o-rings - you'll only need the o-ring(s) to fix if that's the problem. Search the forum for PN's.

Good luck!
