My son recently purchased a Ford 4000 tractor and there seems to be a problem with the hydraulics. I realize this isn't exactly a CUT, but since the members here are the best source of information I've found, thought I'd run it by everyone and see if I could get an answer for him.
As part of the purchase, he had a new Allied loader installed on the tractor. He didn't notice it at first, but there is a definite pulsing of the hydraulic hoses feeding the loader. This doesn't seem to take place while using the loader, only while in a stationary position. The pulsing is hard enough that the hoses actually jump and the "pulse" can be felt throughout the tractor. The pulse occurs every 3-5 seconds. It seems to be related to having the 3ph at it's highest position. If we lower the 3pt even a slight amount, the pulsing is reduced considerably, though not totally eliminated.
Any ideas or remedies?
Thanks,
Hoss
