Kubota MX500 Loader Not Lifting Unless Remote Engaged

[Rawkis]

Thanks Leejohn, that was it.

On the front hydraulic block there between two of the connections there was a flat head screw that had somehow got turned. It seems to lock out the flow from the loader - I assume so you can get greater flow to the remotes.

Anyway, we just adjusted it and all is well now.

I really appreciate the support, it was a real puzzler and although it wasted a few hours of troubleshooting, it was a simple fix and saved us an expensive and time consuming trip to the dealer.

Rawkis check the hyd. outlet block there might be a spool with a screw drive slot that you turn it for other hyd attachments. It might of got turned for some reason.

This little piece of advice! Just made my day! I have been having the same issue with my Kubota loader and was fearing a much worse scenario. You gotta love just turning a little screw and solving all your problems! Its taken me numerous hours of searching and finally found this tidbit of info. Thank you!!
