3pt hitch adjustment

Also he stated that if he operated the dump/curl function simultaneously with the raise/lower, then it would raise at normal speed. Why might that be? I guess dumping the bucket may temporarily reduce some of the pressure and allow the relief valve to close, giving full flow to the loader functions? Again, I'm just guessing at things here.

I didn't read operating boom/curl simultaneously boom raised normally but my reading comprehension in my older yrs isn't what it was. I doubt hyd oil got too hot BUT changing to new hyd oil cost less than sending tractor to dealer service dept. I will need to think about that statement but I'll still bet feedback rod isn't adjusted correctly.

Definitely agree about need to adjust feedback linkage.

Had a similar problem on my M135GX after the dealer replaced the computer. Its system is more complicated being electronic. When the 3 point was all the way up I had no loader power. I discovered it was a 3 point problem when I lowered the 3 point half way and all of a sudden I had loader power. Fortunately I had the WSM so I could go through the procedure to calibrate. I did check hydraulic oil temps with my infra-red thermometer and saw it quickly rose 30 degrees above normal hard working temp with the hydraulic oil going over relief. I had my oil sampled and it had not oxidized enough in the short time I used it for there to be a problem.

This winter I noticed my L6060 was not raising the rear blade as much as my old L5740 did. The WSM procedure is just like others have said above - with the 3 point lever fully raised adjust the link until you hear the pump go over relief, then back off a half turn and lock in place.
