Hello, I need your help again. I have made my tractor look better by taking it apart, sandblasting all of the small parts and wire brushing all of the larger parts. I also removed the hydraulic pump in the bottom of the tractor. I cleaned this the best that I could, check all of the springs, and replaced all of the gaskets. This unit now looks pretty good in my opinion. I also checked the hydraulic lift cylinder and piston. This also looks to be in good shape. Now that the tractor is back together I have add new hydraulic fluid and filled it to the correct level. My issue is that the arms will only raise about half the way up. I can apply weight to the lift arms and they seem pretty strong when lifting. Also if I turn off the tractor the arms will remain in the raised positon. I do not notice them lowering once the tractor has been turned off. I would like to know if anyone has any ideas why the arms are not raising to their full height. Is it possible that there is air in the system? Since the tractor has been put back together I have only ran the tractor about 5 minutes.
Thanks in Advance for any suggests or comments
