The FEL on my B2710 Kubota will not go in the down direction with any amount of force. All other directions have hydraulic force. The down direction is VERY slow. If you release the down valve by pushing the stick all the way forward it will go down very fast. But it doesn't work under hydraulic pressure. Anyone have any ideas????

Two things, take all your quick connects off and reconnect them. Sometimes they seem tight, but aren't. The other thing is the valve at the bottom of the joystick can get gunked up. I don't have any experience with this, but there are balls and stuff in there that can get hung up. If you think thats the problem, hopefully someone will give better advice on that one.

Dodge Man,
I did remove and re-connect all the quick disconnects but that didn't help. Can you describe more in depth where this valve is and should I open it up some how and try to clean it out?
