3 point and remote weak

[Donnyncarol]

The plumbing is from the factory. None of which has been changed. I bought the tractor new from dealer. I do not have a diagram either even with the "service manual" that LS put out. It is very non specific. I can tell you the pump pumps to the diverter block, with a pressure relief valve there. On the right (looking at diverter block ) of the block the loader hooks to it with 3 lines. One on the passenger side of the tractor there is a hard line that goes to the steering. The left side of the block 2 hard lines, one that supplies the rear remote and 3 point. The other is to the filter. On the front the relief valve and the spool plug *. With the o-ring.

. This is what is in my manual. It is very close but not completely accurate. I believe the power steering is a little different

It also doesn't show the diverter block. Just noticed that.

Do you have any info on this diverter block or pictures? It might have a spool that you would switch to allow the flow to go to the 3 pt and remotes.

My WAG is the 3 pt relief valve isn't seating properly.

. The plug #3 is set above the pressure relief valve and where it is shown is the FEL connections.

If you are speaking of the pressure relief valve on the side of the 3 point cylinder casing. I thought the same as well. I have no way of testing this relief valve. But the copper washer under it has been replaced. The one that came out of it from the factory looked as if they punched it into the hole. And was malformed. But it did work this way since 2003

. #10 is the pressure relief valve to the 3 point. I have replaced the copper washer that goes behind it. As for the relief valve itself. I have no way of testing it. Is this the relief valve to are speaking of?

View attachment 629388. #10 is the pressure relief valve to the 3 point. I have replaced the copper washer that goes behind it. As for the relief valve itself. I have no way of testing it. Is this the relief valve to are speaking of?

That looks like the safety relief valve for the 3 pt. Like, if you have a heavy implement on the 3pt, you then happen to drive fast over an aggressive bump, that relief will let go to relieve the shock load. So it wont, either break stuff or blow the seals of the piston. That's why there is no way to adjust it.

Yeah I a sure that's what it is. I was asking Tx Jim if that was the relief valve he was speaking of.
