- Cat D3, Deere 110 TLB, Kubota BX23 and L3800 and RTV900 with restored 1948 Deere M, 1949 Farmall Cub, 1953 Ford Jubliee and 1957 Ford 740 Row Crop, Craftsman Mower, Deere 350C Dozer 50 assorted vehicles from 1905 to 2006
Had the garden hose out and gave the BX23 a complete washing... mud prevented the neutral safety switch from activating when in Neutral... doesn't take much mud to eventually work it's way into the undercarriage.
Anyway... started up the tractor and noticed the loader would not life... just wouldn't.
After looking at things I found the backhoe hydro line quick disconnect under and to the rear of the seat had come slightly undone... enough to impede flow.
Guess it doesn't take much to push back the collar in the quick connect... just garden hose water pressure will do it.
Always learning something when I'm tractoring...
