Problem with snow plow attachment?

The work ports are the ports on the valve that send fluid to the cyl.

If you have fluid coming out the work ports when the lever is operated, then the valve is good, and trouble lies elsewhere.

That is what happens to mine too. It will go to the left and not at all to the right.

I'm leaning toward removing the cylinder and turning it left and right by hand until I can get hold of a replacement cylinder.

It's good that down east Maine is having a run of rainy weather but no snow...

I forgot to mention that if I totally switch the hydraulic connections I can make the left and right cylinder control the up and down function and the up and down cylinder control the right and left function.

I'm leaning toward removing the cylinder and turning it left and right by hand until I can get hold of a replacement cylinder.

If it works with the connections "totally switched", it is not the cylinder.

The only thing that has changed with the plow is the quick disconnects to the cylinder that makes it go right and left. I changed them when I had a hard time getting them on and off right after I bought the tractor.

I think your problem is one of the quick disconnects. Can you swap them and see if the problem moves to going left?

If it's a disconnect problem I know which one it is... I'll use one off of the loader and see if that takes care of the problem. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hello! I replaced the quick disconnect for that function of the snow plow and it took care of the problem... ��
