L3430 three point pulsating

jmc012 · Aug 10, 2005

I was wondering if anyone else had noticed their 3 point kind of pulsating or raising a fraction of an inch every minute or so with an implement raised on the back. I can see it move a little when it does it. It's not really a problem just wondering if it's normal, doesn't seem like it should be doing it. Thanks

Hello…
I don’t know your make of tractor or how many hours it has on it, (you need to fill your profile out), but that pulsing is the hydraulics leaking down, followed by the system correcting the position. If this is from lots of hours it will probably slowly get worse over time. If it’s a newer machine and just started suddenly doing this, it may be an adjustment in your position control. KennyV.

It's a new L3430 and it's done it since it was new, I just never thought much about it. Sounds like it might be something I should discuss with the dealer ? Thanks for the input.
