OK, got it scanned and it didn’t turn out too big so it should attach here.
If not, it is on my web site and you can get to it here:

Thank you a lot. This is great, I can read it.
Have you experienced the problem they have with different cylinders? I have a pile of useless parts due to this.
I have Jinme 304 and the parts I have ordered from their manual don’t fit half the time. Seems like some parts that do fit are from the 200 series. I bought the tractor as a crate job in 2002. It has been a good purchase except for the availability of correct parts.
Thanks again for ypour help with this.

I have had problems getting the proper parts too. The dealer I bought the crate tractor from was really good with parts for the first couple of years I had the tractor. Then there were personnel changes in the parts and service departments and they both went downhill terribly. I don’t even bother with them any more as they usually get the part wrong or forget to ship the order or just plain don’t know what they are talking about. It is a shame too as I really like that dealership and they had very competitive prices.
Usually I go to Circle G because they have a great online parts catalog. They seem to be on the ball and ship quickly even though they are on the high side with prices. You get what you pay for.
Hydraulic hoses and fittings are the hardest to deal with. Jinma used a wide variety of fittings and styles of connection over the years. Seems different on every other piece of equipment. Some of it is kind of standard and most of it not. Metric and European variations seem most prevalent. I currently have a miss-mash of all kinds of connections and adapters on my machines.
As I understand it, Jinma went through several variations (upgrades?) in the loader cylinders over the years and the seals are not compatible between them and they had a lot of different connection types as well. I have been lucky and not had any problems other than hoses and the BOSS seals are mostly crap and don’t last long.
