Yanmar YT235 Loader Problem

tom226d · Dec 31, 2020

Hi, I'm looking for assistance with the following issue:

My new YT235 has a loader problem. I've only had the tractor for 2 hours. Loader was working fine for first hour and a half, then loader would not go down. Bucket curls, dumps, raises just fine. I checked all quick connectors, disengaged and re-engaged, and would like to know if there's a way to drop the bucket safely.

Thank you for any ideas!

Did you check your control lever lock for your loader joystick if you inadvertently engaged it by chance?

If loader was up then there is no way you can disengaged and re-engaged quick connectors....

hi Blue 14 and Leejohn control lever not engaged and I did disconnect all 4 couplers. Red is boom lower blue is boom lift I thought maybe one of those became ajar while in use. going back out to support bucket and trying to get pressure off.

If you had couplers off you better be very careful that thing could come down real quick on you.

Did you ever find out what the problem was with your loader?

on the YT 235 just swap the hoses from raise and lower then lower then use joy stick to lower then contact your dealer and have him give you all 8 couplers 4 male 4 female replace them and your issue will be solved unit is under warranty so dealer should not charge you for couplers or take it back to the dealer and have him do the repair
