This issue dates back a year. I was operating the tractor, went to shut it off, and it wouldn't shut off. Pulled the emergency stop and it did exactly what it was supposed to do.
Went to operate the tractor again and same problem persisted with tractor not shutting off.
Replaced the ignition...
i just realized that valve probably is closed, when i pulled the fitting off the triangular key part was just sitting in the cup loose. So tightening it and loosening it isn't doing anything. probably have to try and tack it in place and see if that does the trick
i'm going to do this regardless if it is the cause or not, there's a decent amount of rust that isn't coming off and can't imagine something machined this precise is going to be happy with rust dragging up and down.
I took the rake off to clean the hydraulic rods and now it won't lower at all. I took out that valve under the seat and have no clue what i'm looking at, it's a hollowed out plug packed with stainless washers and a little triangular key. Adjusting it open and closed doesn't seem to have any...
Appreciate everyone's help on this. I was able to drag a 3pt rake and hook it up in the lifted position, with that weight and me hopping on the draft arms I was able to get it to finally lower, it was able to lift right back up, then wouldn't go down again, after hopping on the arms and getting...
there is a mystery knob that was incredibly tight under the front of the seat, not sure if that is what you are referring to, I had broken it loose previously and after about 5 rotations it was lightly leaking oil so i cranked it back down.
no manual, and nothing is labeled, so have had to figure everything out by feel.
I pulled the hydraulic line off of one of them with the engine off and got a decent little pop of pressure, tested with the engine running with the selector in both positions and either way fluid was firing out of...
i tried that valve previously to no avail. great cal on the rust on the cylinder rods though, didn't even think of that, will see if i can hit with a clean and polish before adjusting.
Hoping I can get a little help trouble shooting this problem with my rear lift hydraulics.
Montana 6864 manufactured by UTB.
Front loader operates perfectly.
When engaging rear lift for first time since buying it I got about 1" of travel in the cylinders and then they stopped and will not...
I know it's a longshot, but any chance anyone out there has a manual for either the C6862 or the C6864 by Montana? Bought one tagged "runs and operational" from auction and unfortunately it neither runs, nor is operational.
