I understand the unequal movement of the bucket cylinders but today the slower cylinder (left) totally extended out while the other one moves fine. Left the 50*F shop into 2*f temps and did some back dragging to clear a little snow. Then switched to bale spears, lifted a large bale, moved it closer to the gate, lifted it up high and dropped it. Trying to loosen up some ice on the bale. Then attempted to lift the bale again and the spears would barely move from the full down position. Tried full throttle but did little help. Took the bale spear off and the left cylinder went full extended to dump position while the right one would move okay. I was able to move the left cylinder by hand but it would return to extended position. Tried to attach bucket but no way to move that cylinder.
The dumping of the bucket has been slow to dump for a long time. Sometimes it will just stop but moving the lever in the cab would then dump okay.
Any ideas?
