Most of the problems with the hydraulics were caused by the operators. They didn't read the OM and didn't know how to set the hydraulic system for the task they were doing, and many time hydraulic maintenance was minimal. For instance leaky shift boots allowed water to enter the hyd. system and filter changes were never done. The operators didn't read how to operate the tractor. For instance when plowing with a 3pt plow you would turn the selector knob to draft control. When mowing you would turn the selector knob to height control. If plowing with a semi mounted plow without an A frame hitch you selected TCU. To make these changes with the selector knob the operator had to pull the white control lever back and then compress the spring to move it further and then the selector knob could be moved. If the lever didn't engage the spring the operator could screw up the linkage by forcing it, and it would not do what it was supposed to do. I suspect that is the problem here, but we need to see how this tractor's hydraulics are plumbed. Joe should post his question down on the CASE DB forum where the guys in the know reside.---------------------------Loren
