Run the loader up and down until it operates smoothly.

OK. did you happen to clean out the strainer screen? Been a few years since I've dealt with a 30HP Jinma but IIRC there is a strainer where the hydraulic pump suction line hooks up to the reservoir.

Where was the filter located that you changed. If on inlet or suction side of pump and not OEM they can cause pump to cavitate - starve for oil which would create symptoms you are describing. So would strainer screen clagg references.

Did the system operate correctly before you changed the lines and filter?
Are all of the loader functions slow and jerky?
If you operate the tractor at lower RPM does the system smooth out?
If answer to the questions above is yes I would suspect new filter is the problem.
Strainer would be located inside the reservoir on most tractors transmission case. I would suggest following the inlet line back to where it connects to the transmission housing. On some tractors there a cover that you remove to access the strainer in that location.

The filter is on the left side and hooks to a hard line in fluid tank under seat
no it started getting jerky before I changed the filter. Yes all functions are jerky. No on the lower rpm. Thanks for your help

#1, check level. If low you will be sucking air and getting that effect. I'm sure you lost a bit after doing your cylinders
