I have a 758c backhoe on a TC35DA tractor, after leaving the machine overnight or longer the stabilizers will sag eventually reaching the floor if left several days. Everything works well when all fired up. Is this normal , or an easy fix or trip to the dealer? Thanks Petermac1

Stabilizers do leak off , but if it's new or under warranty , I wouldn't like it if it was mine . My 86 580 case has that problem , but they still stay up longer than a week . In comparison on my L 35 kubota they stay up all winter , but it has very few hours on it , your dealers opinion may vary .

When the tractor is parked a short length of nylon rope from one stabilizer to the other solves my problem. They all drift down otherwise.

My 758C (2003 model year) came with a latch fastened to the rear of the operator platform that hooks over a pin on the stabilizer when they are raised up, so I don't have your exact problem. I did have a problem with them leaking down while digging. My dealer installed piloted check valves on each cylinder under warranty, it works great now!

Mine have always slowly leaked down. I figured it was normal. I figure why worry as long as your not parked next to the china cabinet! As long as they hold me up while digging, I'm happy.

My 757C leakes down too after 3 days the stabilizers are on the floor, bucket uncurles a bit, and the boom would go down too, if it wouldn't be pinned up. MY backhoe does have some wear tho. Not worn out, but some wear is there.
