Not sure if this should be here or in the hydraulics section. I read on TBN about the float position and decided to see if I had one and if so try it out. Well I do have one and it seems to work pretty good. Too good because now it's stuck in the float position. I can raise and lower the FEL like normal but now I can't get any down pressure to apply. It will only do float. I'm guessing something got stuck when I used it. Any suggestion as how to fix this? I'm not keen on taking the valve off, but if that's the only way I will.

In case you're wondering it's a Koyker 210 loader, thats about 5 years old.

Sounds like your linkage is dry and stuck, you need to lube the balls in the detent cap.

FEL float UN-STUCK. :D Once in float mode I have to wait a while when just using down pressure for it to go back to normal.
