3pt lift

[ac450]

I just got a MF 1020 that had been sitting for 4 or 5 years I have it running but the 3 point will not work? I have turned the knob fully both ways any help on what to do next would be nice Thank you!

First change the hydraulic fluid and see if that helps.

You need to find out if the pump is pumping, and with the hard lines running all the way from front to back it might be hard to unhook at the rear to check for flow. If it has the oil cooler there are some connections there you might unhook and check for flow. The pump isn't hard to pull to check shaft, the inlet hose is short and stiff that might be a bear. I can't remember a place that a gauge could be hooked up.
