Greetings,
I have replace all the hydraulic hoses on the above unit as I considered them maintenance items and they were due. According to the manual (1983 edition) a "special" manifold is needed to do a proper bleed of the system without damaging the works. It seems to be unavailable from any of the sources I've contacted.
The fellow I purchased the hoses from (43 years experience) said he simply fills up the reservoir and lets the system run. It will self bleed.
In anticipation of selling the boat with working stabilizers I'm hesitant to take this fellows advice. I REALLY don't want the new owner(s) to have any problems. Any comments or hints? TIA.
