MF 1533 FEL Hydraulics Stuck

[Tim in SC]

I have a MF 1533 shuttle shift. A couple of days ago I was bush hogging and stopped to talk to my wife. I shut the tractor off and lowered the bush hog and then the FEL but the FEL did not move. I cranked the tractor back up and tried to lower the FEL to no avail. You can see the hoses flex when I move the controller in all 4 directions but the bucket does not curl or uncurl and the boom will not move up or down. The 3 point hitch works just fine. Any ideas?

If you have QD's, reset them.

After reading some other discussions last night I walked out to the shop at 1 AM and that is what it was. I guess out in the brush the other day it knocked one of them loose, it was being held up in the socket by the bend in the hose.

Thanks for your response.
