Backhoe FARMPRO 2425 BACKHOE HYDRALIC NOT WORKING

EdwardsFerryRoad · Jan 5, 2018

First time post and I am not super mechanical but I get buy. I own a FarmPro Tractor model 2425 and my backhoe hydraulic seems to be disengaged. I would like to move the tractor into our garage but I am unable to lift the stabilizers or Backhoe boom. Any suggestion how to bypass the hydraulic and manually lift stabilizers and Backhoe boom without damaging the tractor? Yes I have hydraulic fluids and all hydraulic lines are connected. I have a single hydraulic pump in the rear located neat the backhoe. Ordered a new replacement pump hoping that will resolve my problem. Any suggestions how to manually life backhoe so I can work in the garage. Also interested on any suggested fix for disengaged backhoe hydraulics

Is it making any noise like a wining like something is plugged up?
Do you have the pump with separate tank? Does it have a filter?
Does it try to do anything? Like really low pressure.

No noise and at making me think it is a electrical or fuse type of problem.
There is a large square black tank and the spout where I add hydraulic fluid is positioned on top in the middle, Next to tank is the hydraulic pump. I do not think it has a filter. It does not try do anything there is no pressure. Hey thank you for responding to my post. It will be great if you can steer me in the right direction but even if you do not have the final answer i am very appreciative of your time and knowledge. I will be eager to read your next reply. Is there a video how to replace the pump or any associated trouble shooting videos?

If it's a PTO pump did you engage the PTO? Are you sure you don't have water in your hydraulic oil and it froze? You should be able to move the out riggers lever and manually but hand or with a rachet strap lift the out riggers.
