Water in hydraulic system.

Find a manual for the valve and then you will know.

Do you know the manufacturer of the valve and model number?

I'll do a little more investigating. Thanks for the advice.

It went down to 13 degrees yesterday morning so I went out to see if I could move the loader control after working on it last weekend. I am pleased to report that it worked like a charm in all directions. I'm very thankful for finding the forum and in particular for your expert advice. THANK YOU!

Thanks.

I don't know how you guys get use to that cold.

I was stationed in Iceland, flying in P3C's for six months and hated it. Frozen runway, landing sideways, chipping out padeyes. Also, ropes guide to barracks and chow hall. whiteouts,etc. The horror of it all.

Padeye - (1) A recessed tie-down point on a flight deck or a flight line. (2) Almost any anchor point on a bulkhead or deck.
