Bought this used when it was colder out. After it warmed up, the 3 pt (w/ box scraper/scarifier on it) would raise a little once or twice, never to full height, then wouldn't respond at all. Obviously something related to viscosity, and I'm assuming leakage around a valve or the piston rings.
Service Manual says to remove the side cover and ck for leakage in cylinder, stand pipe, control valve, or valve chambers. I pulled the cover, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I can see the cylinder, and it didn't appear to be leaking when I tried to raise the 3 pt. Not sure how to ck for leakage in the valve or valve chambers through the porthole. I did pull and replace the o rings on the standpipe, but they didn't look bad, and that didn't make a difference. Also, why is it always the right cover that is to be pulled; almost looks like you'd have better access through the left side.
Thanks.
