Hello all, first post here however I've been getting great information from these forums for years. I've come for help today, hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I recently bought a Cub Cadet Yanmar SC2400 in great condition with low hours, well taken care of by an older gentleman. Everything worked as it should when I bought it. The problem is when I initially bought it, the implement control for the 3 point hitch worked as it should. In the winter when I was plowing snow, I used the hydraulic control valve to "lock" the ballast I was using up on the 3 point as the manual says to do. Now the weight is off and I opened the valve the whole way open to allow the 3 point to drop fast however it is not dropping fast as when I bought it, it is now very slow to go down. So, it still works but is very slow to lower. What could be wrong? I downloaded the technical service manual and see that there is some type of port at the back possibly a hex plug that can be removed, is there anything serviceable by removing that? I'm approaching mower season and don't want to take forever to raise and lower my mower. I attached the picture of the valve where the flow control knob is located, I'm certain many others have this. Any help is appreciated.
