Hi All: I have a new to me 2500A / 574 Diesel with loader. When I purchased this it blew a Hdy line on the loader. When we got it home and backed it off the trailer the Wife and I took turns driving it around the barn yard. I went to back it up some and the steering stopped working! We stopped and shut the tractor down. No fluid on the dip stick...... Nothing notta! ( I checked it when I test drove it a week ago and it was low and a little milky so a full fulid change was in the works anyway. To get it going I added 5 Gallons of trans/Hydro fluid, Started it back up and still no steering. The front wheels are still pointed to the left. So I worked the steering back and forth a bit. When I turn to the left I can barely turn it, ( lots of resistance) to the right I can spin the wheel as much as I want. Still could not get the front wheels to straighten out. I ran it forward and reverse for a while, at the same time I kept turning the steering wheel to the right. I finally got the front wheels almost straight. But the steering is not working still.
Is there some bleeding I I need to do? Can someone enlighten me on the most likely areas to look at to fix this. I just purchased this tractor and have just ordered the manuals. So I am kinda flying blind here.

This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
