    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Thanks ya'll. We'll try fishing with a magnet a while. (forever the optimist) The old gal's pretty tired. If I can get the SIL interested, it might be time to break her open and look for some compression while we're looking for the parts. We'll let ya'll know either way.

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Howdy again! Sorry to be so tardy reporting back. Started out by pulling one the afore metioned four bolts out to establish the current adjustment and saw it was all the way forward in the slot (the Quadrant adjustment was all the way back). So, we loosened em all and tapped the adjustment...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Thanks, actually we have the Red Rock position control, and when we put it on today, the added friction acted like a hand on the touch control lever, and the lift seems to behave as it should. I don't know how it'll act when we're mowing, but when the rain next stops, we're gonna pull the...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    I'll def be changing the cork out, thanks. But I'm still wondering why the hydraulics are operating in the bottom couple of inches of quadrant. Could the main control spring and plunger have the "pivot point" to an extreme position, where the eccentric on the control shaft is just barely making...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Thanks Soaked, I .wish I'd have seen your post before I posted. That's some Grade A pondering material. I'm going to take a beat and do just that.

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Ok fellas, the control valve is indeed working freely. However, it seems that the fork retracting spring (M on p92) is overpowering everything to pull the lift control lever fork (53 on p92) , and therefore the control valve. to the full up position. The touch control lever (57) just goes along...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Ok, we removed the inspection covers, (both sides), and were able to grasp the forks, and move the valve to lower the arms. However, the linkage is not responding to the movement of the touch control lever. The linkage acts and feels as if it's movement is being restricted by something above in...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    Thanks for the info (and the welcome) Soaked. The guy we bought it from warned against pulling the lever too far back in it's travel and just operate it in the lower part. That makes me think something's mal-adjusted, and needs to be zeroed out somehow. We'll see if we can't unstuck it. And if...

    2N Hydraulics stuck in up position

    The lift goes straight to the top (too far in fact) as soon as pto is engaged. The touch control lever does nothing regardless of position. We removed the right side inspection cover, and the lift control forks are attached to the T on the control valve, but it won't budge even by hand. So, I...
