New Member - JCB 8065 Excavator Question

[ALCON]

Hi All

Just purchased a used 8065 excavator. Been great so far however
it has developed a leak in one of the hoses in the left joystick
I have removed from joystick but cant figure out how to get to the other end
it disappears down behind the seat

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Chasing a hose behind the seat sounds like a real puzzle half the battle is just getting the panels or seat base out of the way to see where it routes. Any chance you can pull the seat and get a picture of what's back there? Might help someone picture what you're dealing with.
