Tractor
JD 750 4WD, Kubota L4600DT
I bought a new compact Kubota, L4600 4-wd tractor, with shuttle shift. Has a 6' wide bucket in front, and I often use forks. The unit has been seemingly bulletroof. I just use it around our little 5 ac spread. Im retired, unit never leaves the property. The tractor now has 230 hrs on it. The front end loader seems to have slowed somewhat since new. Have never chg the hyd fluid, but there are no leaks.
Could the slower lift action be due to "tired" or worn hyd fluid?
Thanks in advance.

Tired or worn fluid probably not the problem. Maybe a partially clogged filter.

I'll agree with the partially clogged filter - or even internally collapsed. Be sure your three point control is not set all the way to up. That can slow hydraulic response. Check your fluid level.

Have you done the required service per the manual?I would bet plugged filter also.I also had a problem with the three point hitch out of adjustment and putting the hydraulics into releif(have dealer adjust).
