On my Bobcat CT 235 I have a puzzle and would like to know the possible fix. First the front bucket curl. Randomly if I try to back drag it will fold (curl) under pressure. If I work it a bit it will be fine for a while.
Now yesterday while working with my 3pt hydraulic top link, it too started creeping, once badly while lifting my goose neck trailer (it would extend under down pressure). I know it is not the cylinder as there are no leaks. Again after working it was fine. It also crept with my drum mower, not holding the pitch I wanted mowing. Every 5 minutes I had to reset. These all connect to the hydraulic block under the tractor (below my right foot). Rear remotes from the side and loader from the front. Control stick from the top.
Is there a single check valve that might control this?
Last I have noticed if I have the 3pt up with a heavy implement like my tiller and I get off the tractor, leaving it at idle to throw a rock to the side, the 3pt will cycle a little bit to keep it up once in a while. So are the 3 point lift arms connected to the same source on my Bobcat.
It is due for a full service, and I would like to have it looked at and be able to explain what to look at when I take it in.
Thanks for the help.
