Greetings, I have an older 855 JD with a 410 loader on it, has worked fine for a good spell. Was curling the bucker to roll an small old stump out, blew a connector apart in steel tube on the loader. Cut the line, put a new compression ferrel, worked for a while alright but started locking up. It was on the lift operation of the bucket. It would lock up, sometimes could lower bucket, shove control into float and free it, or sometimes restart the tractor. Most of the time would have to bleed the hose at the check valve quick coupler. Rotated hoses in function, lift and lower ok, but transferred the problem to curling the bucket in. I got on it 3 or 4 days ago and worked it for a while, cylinder would travel some and stop, kept working it and it started working, worked it for a good while, but came back out to use it and as soon as I pressured it up, it locked again. Any suggestions? Thank you.
