I finally had time to start checking into my problem. Lever is not bent and looks to be engaging correctly. I have cut a hole under the seat and followed the test procedure in the manual. When I started the engine, the gauge went up to 1 bar. After operating hydraulics and getting hydraulic fluid to operating temperature, I set the rpm to 2600 and the gauge still only reads 1 bar. I'm using a new 0-60 bar pressure gauge, but am not using their "special tool" CNH299008. A fitting that came with the gauge set fit. Do I need their special tool, which I looked up and it is a fitting, or is the test procedure in the manual missing something?
