Good day!

I bought my farmstead last month and with it purchased the Mahindra 3510 that was there. It has been awesome thus far. However, Saturday, while lowering the front end forks it started lowering extremely slowly. Since I just purchased it, I have no history of its use prior to July. But I even hooked up the bucket to see if it would lower quicker to no avail. Prior to this past weekend I could lower no problem It is very strong, and if Im not careful it would lift the front up. Now it barely lowers, even with the weight of the bucket.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your advice!

Folks have had some issues with a chunk of debris plugging hydraulic fittings and the ports where the hose enters the cylinders. The QDs for removing the loader can also catch debris.

Pop the loader hose disconnects off and on. Make sure you seat them properly. This is a quite common fix, unusual as it may sound.
