As you may have seen, I have added a set of rear remotes to my 1602D yanmar and everything has been tested; loader, 3pt hitch and remotes without any problems.
Symptoms:
Today, I was finally getting to moving some earth with my box blade, everything worked well raised/lower 3pt hitch on multiple passes. I used the loader and my toplink cylinder, no problems. All of a sudden my 3 pt hich would not lift my box blade. By setting the lift control to the highest up position, and moving the toplink out and in, I was able to get the blade off the ground and back to the shed.
I did not touch the control knob at all. I did check it after getting back to the shed, and it didn't have any effect on the raising.....
I removed the blade, lift would work with nothing on it.
I stood on the lift (180lbs on the lift arms), at 1500rpm they would hold position but not go up, at 2000rpm+ they would lift me.
Also standing on the lift, if I set the lift position to a high position and lowered the loader, it would raise the lift. using the toplink had no effect.
I checked the pressure into the IN port 3pt block, and it was 2000psi+ at 2000rpm or so.
The loader was able to lift the front of the tractor off the ground in the down position.
I then removed the loader from the circuit, it would not lift me unless it was at higher rpm.
I then removed the rear remotes from the circuit, so the only thing in the circuit is the 3pt hitch.
I checked the fluid level, it was good.
I assume the filters and pump are ok, if the loader and toplink cylinder can still
lift the tractor....
Possibilities:
Relief valve of 3pt hitch is not functioning properly (where do I connect a gauge to see the pressure?
Control Valve
Lift Cylinder
Anything else?
Here is a picture of the block under the seat
Any ideas? What should I try next?
Thanks,
Rob
