Hey guys i am a new tractor owner. I recently got a kubota b2320 hsd with fel and backhoe, and snow blower. I am wondering about the hydraulics with the fel. When i have my stabilizers down for backhoe operation there seems to be insufficient fluid to the fel. I have very little down pressure. Not enough to raise the front wheels at all. I have to back off the stabilizer pads and then lower the fel. Is this normal. The tractor only has a couple of hours on it so far. All fluids are level. And its plenty warm enough. Engine speed is around 2000.
When driving up the back hill the hydrostatic transmission sounds awful. Whining real loud as dark smoke comes out. Again engine speeds are around 2k and transmission is in the medium range with no load in the bucket. Its not really a steep hill. My lawnmower makes it up with out a second thought.
