1010 FEL BUCKET DROP

[oneparsec]

I have a little mdl 1010 that came with a loader. My problem is that the bucket wants to keep dropping/dumping, even with the engine at 2000 rpms. I don't see any adjustment I can make and can only guess the cylinder(s) are leaking internally. Has anyone seen this condition? Unfortunatly, the tractor did not come with a manual for the loader/hydrolics. Thanks for your advice. Jeff

I had the same problem with my 1533s 1525 FEL. I would be driving along then the FEl would start to drop or if I raised it and let go it would start to drop (sometimes). Took it to the dealer, they cleaned the seals and piston for the down/up controller on the "fender" mounted control. Started doing it again soon after, took it back again, this time they rebuilt that section of the controller and all is fine so far. Dealer said defect in the controller piston (sorry don't know the correct names).
