Well, after playing with my new ratchet rake most of the day, I have noticed that there is quite a bit of play in my curl cylinders when extended. I know you shouldn't back drag with a lot of down force with the cylinders extended, but I do some finish dragging with the loader in the float position figuring that the loader would raise before I bent the cylinder rods.
By play, I mean that when I lower the loader with the cutting edge tilted down, the piston moves back up into the cylinder quite a bit. I don't remember it doing that when the tractor was new, so I'm assuming it is either due to wear or air trapped in the cylinders. Anybody else noticed this or have a cure for it?
