Have you done the obvious, checked fluids, checked filters and screens, etc.

Do you know if the pump is actually turning?


Hydraulics:
Type: closed
Capacity: 2.5 gal [9.5 L]
Pressure: 2250 psi [155.1 bar]
Pump flow: 13.5 gpm [51.1 lpm]

I agree with J_J. Has any maintenance been performed. No pto if hyd operated indicates little to no oil being pumped by trans pump. Also check frt hyd coupler as they can fail. Be sure frt hyd pump shaft is turning with engine.

Where did you get the spec's you posted? 2.5 gal capacity is incorrect if that means capacity of gallons of reservoir.

IIRC hyd oil capacity on a JD utility tractor of that era is about 10 gallons.

Thank you for your reply, the fluid lev is ok, i can not tell if the front pump is turning until i get the loader off of the tractor , would the lift not work if the trans pump is working ?jim

Trans pump has nothing to do with the implement pump.

take a hose off the pump and place in a bucket and turn the engine with out starting.

If that does not work, start the engine for a few seconds to verify the pump is pumping.

Tx Jim is correct, 10 gallon capacity.
Trans pump supplies the main pump, so it does have something to do with it.
Do you have the independent PTO? It will have a lever between the shifters. My 2030 with independent PTO had a steel line for the PTO clutch break. When you engaged the PTO no hydraulics worked. All the flow was going back to sump thru this broken line. disengage the PTO and hydraulics worked. Tractor had to be split to replace this line.
