New Holland 2012 workmaster 55 hydraulic pressure

[Mallard1]

I have a 2012 new Holland workmaster 55 and if i pull into a pile of dirt and get a full bucket it doesn't want to curl until i back up. I'm looking to see if the bucket is slightly too big or if the pressure relief valve many have been set a little low from the factory. I cobbled enough stuff together today to make a test hose and all i lack is a gauge and i can pick one up tomorrow. it looks like the pressure relief valve is on the side of the joystick block and should be easy to adjust.

I just wondering what pressure should i see when i hook up my gauge to one of the hoses on the front end loader. thanks for the help.

I found in the manual the the pump is supposed to put up 2535 psi . I checked the pressure using the quick fitting for the loader lift line and the pressure release was set at 2100psi. I bumped it up to 2400 psi now but don稚 have any piles of rock left to test. I should have some delivered soon .

Anyone see any issues with what I did?

You should be okay. Just be careful, the higher you take pressure the easier to overload the tractor. :thumbsup:
