I am having a problem with my Ford 1720 hydraulics. I was using it to mow and the 3-point seemed to be working fine. Problem is with the FEL.
When I curl or empty the bucket, no issues. However when I raise the bucket, it will move slow, then I can stop, lift again and it will move faster.
The bigger problem is that after two or three attempts, it will stop moving and squirt hydraulic fluid out the hose fittings on the lift cylinders only (both sides). My FEL
is factory installed. I have checked the control valve, checked the diverter valve (right side under foot plate) and cleaned everything out. Have never had any issues until now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
