You might have a stuck lever inside. i cant tell from here.
Do you want to trade yours for a fully functional 3011 with rebuilt transmission ??

Thanks for the reply,cannot trade this Tractor as I need the 4x4 option,can you tell me if there is anybody on here selling mail order parts for 3045 and 3545 Tractors,I need hydraulic lift piston rings for the 3 point linkage on the 3045, and a price for front axle clutch disks on the 3545, Regards Dave.

i have a similar problem with my 3045 hydraulics. The arms lift fine under no load but if you try and pick up an impliment they just wont pick it up.
i noticed some scoring to the hdraulic lift cylinder and piston when i renewed the seals, would this affect it or is it an o-ring somewhere else or maybe even the pump?
any help much appreciated
Chris

Did you replace the 2 small o rings on the removable (2 inch) pipe connecting the pump to the lift head

no i didnt, are there any other o-rings i should replace when i have the hydraulic unit off?
thanks
