Loader 4100JD / 410 front end loader raising issue

[deeganjd]

The loader was working fine. A few days later I went to use the tractor and the loader would only raise up about 1 foot from the ground and stop. It would go back down fine. The bucket operates fine and tilts forward and back as it should. Just can not seem to figure the problem out any help? Thanks Jim

Unplug ALL four of the QD's (quick disconnects) for the loader, wipe them clean (inside the female, outside the male) and reconnect everything. I'll bet you a sweet tea everything will work after that.

It is not uncommon for the QD's to "look" connected, but not be.

Thanks a bunch for the info. I took them apart, cleaned and put back on, all works great. One did look like it was not connected good when I took it apart but I took all off and cleaned to be on the safe side. Thanks again, Jim
