LIFT WON,T WORK ON YANMAR 1500

[spiter23]

THE 3-POINT LIFT ON THE BACK OF MY YANMAR 1500 WILL RAISE, BUT IT WON'T LOWER. CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT I NEED TO LOOK AT. I HAVE REMOVED THE FRONT AND BACK COVERS FROM THE PISTON AND AM ABLE TO MOVE THE LIFT ARMS UP AND DOWN, BUT ONLY WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY. HELP !!!

Did you look at the round knob under the seat. If it got turned, it will keep it from coming down. It is to lock it up. And you should post this on the Yanmar forum instead of here, that is where the Yanmar guys are, that know the answers.
