new 1025R Front loader questions, not moving

[hurricanoday]

I am 5 hours in with my new 1025r. I have dug about 100ft of trench with the backhoe and was in the middle of moving the tractor and now the front loader won't come off the ground. I have been using the loader and arms to secure the tractor while digging then lifting them up to move forward

Any reason why the loader wouldn't move at all? Feels like the shifter is jammed, I checked the quick connects and don't see any puddles of fluid.

I'm a total new guy so I'm hoping it is something stupid and I'm an idoit, but don't know.


Any help would be great

With loader issues, first debugging step is to remove & replace all quick connects & make sure they are well seated (tug firmly to test). A bad connection may not be immediately obvious & may well not involve any leaking. Had similar (not identical) issue in the past & that took care of it.

Your joy stick lock didn't get turned did it?

yep that is what I was, like I said I'm a noob. I guess it got pushed in when I was spinning the seat around and climbing up to move the tractor forward.

We all had to learn & still learn after many years of use, glad it was simple.

Glad it was nothing serious,

When everthing stops, it is often a simple fix. Often a QD coupling that is slightly askew
