Loader Loader won't hold position

[kg7il]

just a thought...with the tractor off and the loader raised (and dropping) you might try just barely moving the joystick in the raise position and see if it has any effect on the leak down...

Excellent suggestion.

ALSO => check any other hydraulic control. ESPECIALLY the 3pt Control (lever for the valve that controls the lifting arms).

My Kubota Control lever has misaligned with the shaft and put it at the end of the travel and causes leak down and loss of power.

Good suggestions. When I fire up the unit in a few days I'll do some experimenting. Good ideas from all of you. Thanks.
