Kubota M6040, Kubota L5740
Hello everyone! I recently purchased a Kubota M6040 with 1500 hours on it. It has one rear remote that I use for my hay equipment. Everything I use it on it seems to be running very slow and with low pressure. It takes forever to raise and lower the tailgate on my baler. raise and lower my mower and fold up the wings on my rake. So far I've put a gauge in each quick connect and tested. At idle, one port reads 250 PSI, the other port doesn't even register, at 2000 RPM each one reads around 2500 PSI. The front end loader works great though. One thing I've noticed is when I have the hydraulic fill cap off I can see little bits of oil spraying around in there and there is some small bubbles on the surface of the oil.
Things I've tried so far:
-Replaced filters and oil
-Taken apart the rear romote, nothing looked obviously wrong with it
-Adjusted the pressure relief valve on the three point, didn't seem to make a difference

Any ideas or input would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to TBN
Move 3 pt control lever so 3 pt isn't fully raised. It's possible 3 pt feedback rod is not adjusted correctly. Are you utilizing male quick coupler tips with balls or the higher flow male couplers with a point?

The movement of my hydraulic top link is directly proportional to the rpms. At 2400 rpms it takes around eight seconds to fully extend the hydraulic ram.

Thank you for the welcome and responses!
Yes I have tried adjusting the 3 point up and down to see if it would change anything but it didn't. The baler and rake have the ball type male quick connects, the mower has the pointy tips.
Before I bought the M6040 I used my L5740 with all this equipment. It has a an extra set of hoses with quick connects ran to the back of the tractor that I would hook to either the third function or front end loader valve. The third function was all or nothing on the speed when using the implements, but the front end loader valve worked great because it's flow rate was variable. I just know everything worked way faster on that tractor.
