Hello folks...I'm new at plowing and have a Meyer E-47....My question is can I add some hydrulic fluid to the pump without bleedng the system or do I have to bleed the system everytime I open the filler plug?????Thanks

Nope just remove the filler plug and fill it up.

remember to check the fluid with the ram down. when "full" the fluid should be about an inch below the cap.

Just flushed and re-filled my E-47 and plow today. I followed Chuck's directions and it was no problem. Like bam said, the service manual said about 1"-1 1/2" from the top. Thanks, Chuck and everybody for all the useful information here.:drinkup Mike
