I was out hauling my tractor from one job site to another and was near the dealer so I stopped by to visit and pick up some lynch pins. So in conversation I mentioned that I had gotten stuck a few days before and was unable to get out by using my loader! The bucket would not curl and pick the front end up out of the mud. So they went out and put a gauge on the hydraulics and found that I was barely at the low limit for PSI. Long story short they fixed it for me by adding adjustment washers to the relive valve! Now I am 75 psi over the recommended top limit! After the warranty is out I'll go and raise it to 5% above top limit and still have plenty of safety margin left!
On a lot of these loaders I was told that the factory sets the psi at the lower limits and it is worthwhile to have them checked! Might help you out of a stuck spot sometime!
