Found this with the search engine on this site -


Re: Help with loader problem
Run the tractor to warm the fluid. Then dump the bucket fully and hold the control against the stops for 5 seconds. It will make some buzzing or vibrating sound as the relief valve opens --> that's normal. Then curl the bucket up and hold the control for 5 seconds against the stop. Repeat that cycle 3-4 times and it will bleed out all of the air in the cylinder.

This procedure is something I do at startup

Hello,thanks for the tip.I tried it and there was no change however,I discovered if I put the bucket down flat and then curl it down and then backdrag it stays in place.maybe thats the way it's supposed to operate.as you can tell,i'm pretty new to this.thank you for your time/help.
