Greetings,
I have a L2500 with LB400 loader. It won't go into float anymore, it used to with difficulty but now it won't. Actually it seems that "dump" (to the right) does have a float. It moves to a stop and then with a little extra effort it clicks farther over. But pushing the control straight up doesn't drive it into float. The other part is when I lower the loader, if I try setting it on something to smooth it, the loader will tilt up like there is no force holding it rotated down in dumped position. If I tell it to rotate down, I can get it to lift the front end.
Is the control lever broken somehow? What can I do to fix it. The tractor only has 220 hours on it and most of those were mowing. Lately I've been doing more dirt moving and found this working funny. It also seems like when I hit a bump, with a load in the bucket, it bounces up like its only held up and not down. Is all this normal?
Thanks.
Rich.
