3 point and remote weak

Edit. I plugged my gauge into the pressure side for the 3 point and remote side of the diverter block. I would edit the post but every time I try it deleted the post all together

Just to update anyone following this thread,. Pulled apart the relief valve on the loader valve. It was fine. Out of desperation I pulled off all the lines to the loader valve. There is a fitting on the supply line to the valve, called a power beyond valve. It is supposed to have an o-ring. It did not. Put a new o-ring in and now the tractor is fully operational. 5 months and a complete teardown of the tractor for on o-ring in the loader control valve. Hope this information keeps someone else from doing the same.

It's always something simple and small like that but it will still burn our brains out.

I'm glad you found the issue and got it running. Thanks for updating us.

Me too thanks

Thanks for update. I'm glad you found the problem.

Although it was difficult for this old codger to view your tractors tech manual it did help me understand your tractors hyd system. Back when I served as a dealer service manager for 13 yrs I relied on tech manuals a lot solving tractor problems. I'm curious if your tractors rate of drop screw controls lift speed as it states in TM??

Yes the valves on the top of the housing adjust the rate of lift and drop on the right hand side. And the one on the left hand side (as sitting on the tractor) switches from single and double action.

I spoke with the only dealer left around for these tractors and asked if they had a better shop manual. They said they wished they did. But what I bought from them is what they use as well. They voiced thier frustrations with such a non technical, technical manual. They said they have just had to rely on years of experience instead of the manuals. There maybe a reason these tractors are no longer sold. And parts are ridiculously hard to find. I have found that LS does carry parts for most of it but they have to cross the numbers in my parts book, to new numbers for LS which in some instances was 3 new numbers to get the same part.
