Re: Loader \'curl\' is weak
</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I suspect mine to be more of a relief valve problem )</font>
SPIKER, I can't speak for a Yanmar, but on my New Holland, when you have a load in the bucket and release the joystick, there is no relief valve in the circuit. Once you get the load lifted, it's not coming down unless you blow a cylinder, hydraulic hose, or your tractor does a nose dive.
The relief valve is only in the circuit when you are raising or lowering the loader arms or bucket. I was back-dragging with the bucket almost vertical and hit a stump. I popped a hose like it was a balloon. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif I thought the relief valve should have protected me until I looked at the schematic. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
