3-Point Hitch B3200 loud screaching noise

I'd be interested in seeing the video.

Have you checked your Hydraulic fluid level ? Is the fluid milky and have you checked the Hydraulic filter..?

Once the tractor gets hot, say 30 minutes of use,the noise starts as soon as the lever leaves Neutral, and goes into Lift position. I took the video to the dealer. They told me to keep using the tractor and that anything that goes wrong will be covered under the warranty. Bring in back when things start slowing down. Honestly, that sounds pretty good to me. If I give it to them now, the tractor is going to sit for who knows how long before they touch it. Since I found that the lift will work after a few seconds of loud noise, and they are telling me anything that goes wrong will be covered under warranty, I am going to keep it with me as long as I can. I will try to add the video soon.

Thanks again.

I have a B3200 with 59 hours. I experienced a very high pitch screeching noise yesterday when attempting to lift my box scrape of the ground. This is the first time I have experienced this. The box scrape was empty, under no load. It lagged when attempting to lift it and screeched loudly every time I lifted it off the ground. No problem lowering the scrape. And, of course it is not attached to the PTO.

Sounds like a relief valve is not liking the weight.

You should be able to lift two Box Blades with the 3200. Check the limit controls. Will be a rod at the back right side that limits the travel of the 3PTH. See if one end is against the stop when only partially raised. Could be simple adjustment.
