I was moving a lot of loads today and suddenly I lost my curl/dump loader function. The bucket is loose and will flop around. When I operate the joystick left and right I can hear it operate like it is dead heading. I decided to disconnect all hoses from the loader block and check for outlet pressure. On all four I get the correct PSI upon moving the joystick. On the third port from right I get pressure but only if I hold it in that position. As soon as I let go of the joystick it returns to zero PSI. The other ports do not return to zero until I move the joystick in the opposite direction. It seems like a lot of air is in the curl/dump cylinders. My hydraulic fluid is full. I have 700 hrs on the tractor. Is it possible I have a broken both cylinders? Any idea as to my next step?
