Ford 5610 External Services Problem

[Harold Bishop]

My 5610 seems to operate the three point link without a problem and can easily lift heavy attachments. Its the hydraulics from the spool valves that are getting weaker all the time. ie, front loader is now getting weak. Any ideas ? Also, how to do a home test and home fix ?

Welcome to TBN

Are the 3PH and the loader run from the same hydraulic pump?

Testing is simple, you need to buy a gauge (less than $20.00) and test your pressure at the loader-with that info you can further diagnose the problem.

Read this thread if you have a two pump hydraulic system like most 5610's. Let me know if you have a single pump system.
