Hydraulic return line?

We seem to have a persistent leak of what appears to be the return line coming back from the control levers back to what I believe is the bottom of the reservoir. There appears to be a component inline (filter?) Anyway to change this hose, the clamps, and filter? What is the best way? Does all the fluid need to be drained? How much fluid? Is there a trick to replacing this hose? Thanks

return filter. check the position of the hosing to the tilt cylinder. these can cause the filter to flex and crack.

So that widget in the return line is also a filter?

No trick to it. If the hose is in the bottom of the tank you need to drain the tank. Capacity is about 10 gallons. I would not drain and refill the tank without changing the filter also.
