I have a '98 B7100HST with a Woods DuAl 145 FEL. It acts as if the relief valve is releasing at too low a pressure. I can lift a full bucket of stone or dirt, but the breakaway force is lacking. When I push into a pile, and then lift, it just wines, and I need to back up a little to get it to lift. My gear-drive B7100 with KB219 loader seems to have a good bit more breakaway force. That loader has its own hydro pump on the front PTO, where the Woods on my B7100HST is connected to the hydraulic block on the right side of the engine, which I assume uses the same pump as the three point, (and the HST?).
Since I just bought this tractor and have not maintenance records, I'm going to change all the fluids and filters (did the engine oil yesterday). I don't know if this will help. The fluid "looks" clean, but I obviously don't know what the filter is like. The three point works fine, as does the HST.
Thanks,
