jerking lift

[bdunegan]

the lift on my hinomoto c-144 is jerking when i raise it. doesnt matter if anything hooked to it or not. lift has plenty of power, but just jerks erratically. fluid looks clean, and level is full. it is a gear drive, not hydro so it just has one filter. could fluid and filter still be the cause, or does it need something else done?

Try to lower your RPM's and let it warm up for about 5/10 minutes

Clean your hydraulic filter screen and replace the fluid.

Its the pump starving for fluid that makes it jerk.

according to repair manual, and everyones info, mine does not have a screen. it just has a spin-on automotive filter under fender on left rear wheel for hydraulics. supposedly fluid and filter was just changed when i bought tractor, and fluid looks clean. not milky at all. i will change all for the winter anyway. Does anyone know for sure if this has a screen by chance and where is it located?

It does not appear to have a screen from looking at the parts book.
