Recently I bought an MF 345 reset plough at an auction. The name plate is gone off it so I have no idea what the serial # is, but it has hydraulic rams on each share.
When I hooked it up to the tractor, and tried to use it, the blades kick up as soon as they start to bite into the dirt - seems like there is no pressure in the hydraulics on the plough. (the tractor hydraulics are fine, I use them all the time for other attachments)
There is a thing like a small air tank sits on top of the plough, with a gauge on it, and a line from that to the hydraulic take-off on the back of the tractor. There is some faded lettering, something like " use dry n.....something only." The gauge is at 0. When I first hooked it up, there was creamy yellow foam came oozing out of the tank.
Anybody know what I have, or tell me what I can do to fix?
