Loader BX2200 Hydraulics Problem with LA-211 Loader

moship · Jan 17, 2019

The OP's problem sounds exactly like the problems my Dad experienced every year when he went to hook the snowblower up with unmarked hoses (He didn't use the FEL). He always got it wrong and the snowblower wouldn't work, but everything else was ok. (Eventually I moved the controller from the FEL to to the tractor and color coded everything.)

So my vote is there is an error with the hose routing and likely what is stated above.

I know the OP stated he is certain the hoses are routed correctly, but it might be worth having someone else look at the routing to confirm it is to correct.... sometimes we become too close to the problem and it becomes impossible to see the obvious.

That was one of my first guesses, either a bucket hose and a loader hose cross-connected, or a power beyond line mixed up. I have done the same thing with mixing up hoses on the loader and it doesn't move. Threw me for a loop on our BX2660 when I hooked up the blade as the pairs are the center two QDs and the outer two QDs, not the front pair and the back pair like I was thinking.
