John deere 2440 filters and maintenance

Do you have an implement attached to pto shaft? On hyd pto model the lever by left heel will shift forward easily with no load on pto shaft. Hyd's sound as if there is a large internal leak. Have you checked to be sure hyd filter relief valve is seating?

I think you need to discuss hyd problem with person you just purchased tractor from!!!

No implement attached. No, I haven't checked the valve I'm not sure where it is I will look at the prints and try to find it.

I would speak with them but it was my girlfriends grandfather that we bought after his passing so I'm kinda on my own.

The hydraulic lines in the transmission were borderline sturdy on those . then if somebody doesn't change the filter "water hammer" from the divert and relief valves can cause breakage . Failed seals in the pto brake, pto clutch or the high-shift are other leak points . If the transmission filter is not correctly installed with all the parts . It can twirl and send valve jamming bits into the transmission.

Is there any way to diagnose it properly? I changed the hydrualic filter myself.

Might be good for you to get ahold of the service tech manual for the 2440. Will help with trouble shooting and location/names of various parts too.

See your Deere dealer if you cannot get it online.. i.e. Amazon has it for sale.. Google "JD 2440 service tech manual"

I have a few manuals I'll check and see what I have. Thanks

I was able to get the sump screen out today and was covered in stuff. I cleaned and replaced fluid so I will update the hydraulic issue soon.

Thank you guys for all the advice.

I didn't notice any "fillings" this was larger stuff. I didn't think to get any pictures.

What did the stuff look like ? Burned or disolved wet brake or wet clutch fiber meterial ?
Have a lool around the shop and shed for what kind of hydraulic oil Grandpa was using.

It reminded me of thisel seed when I was cleaning the screen. I'll check next time I'm over there. I saw a few yellow buckets which I would guess is 303 from the local store, usually pretty easy to get around this area.
