tc30 making noise

[bluetc30]

i have a tc30 nh front end loader/backhoe with a little over 200 hours on it. my question is when i run it the pump makes a groaning noise and the fel works slow and the slow dump on the fel and at the controls i can hear what sound like the fluid not being able to get thru the control valves. is this normal or am i being to critical. thank you for replying

Is it cold there; you may have some moisture in the system that has frozen. What fluid is in the unit ? May be too thick.

I agree, it sounds like it has moisture in the oil and probably pluging the filter with ice.

My experience has been that TC30's with the 7308 or 110TL loader have a fair bit of noise coming from the steel hydraulic lines...especially when the oil is cold. Never known it to be a problem though.
