I have a 1995 Massey Ferguson 231 tractor with a 232 front loader on it.
The loader runs off of a hydraulic pump attached to the front of the tractor. It has its own fluid reservoir in the vertical frame of the loader.
It was working fine, I lowered it to the ground, and then it suddenly quit raising or lowering.
It is full of fluid.
I disconnected the hydraulic lines one at a time going to the cylinders that raise and lower the bucket.
When I used the joystick to raise it, or lower it with that line, disconnected, hydraulic fluid flowed out.
However, when everything is connected, it jerks just a little bit, but doesn t move.
Any ideas on where to start would be greatly appreciated.
