Hi All:
New here and of course have a problem. Here are the symptoms:
Upon startup, cold 3pth will not lift. Place nose of tractor down and it will lift (prime?)
When worked (ploughing, or no till drill) 3pth lifts slow then will not have power to lift plough (KV 4 furrow).
It has light oil in hydraulic system TDF type.
I was thinking:
Replace oil with 90-140 going thicker than the 80wt recommended.
Pull pump and reface sides of gear pump to up pressure.
Or could it be a leaking lift cylinder. I don't think so because the remotes get slow and lack lifting power too.
Any suggrstions would be very welcome.
Ken
