Not sure, but I know that I cannot get the loader to full height unless I have a full sump. My 340 has power steering which may account for the extra oil need. The extension I was referring to raises the oil level about 2". When I do a filter change it takes about 12 gallons to top it off. I have no idea if this is the way it's supposed to work, but that's how it was when I got it.
Also, make sure you have the selectors on the valves set to either single or double acting (depending on your cylinder type). The clip that holds the selector in place on my bucket valve is gone, so it moves on me and causes the bucket to stop working until I move it back. Guess I should fix that someday...
