They should put my picture on that little icon that bangs himself on the head. I just love this forum! Even I can offer advice on stuff I know little about. More pressure will definitely speed it up, if you have that adjustment. I'm sure someone knows your controls and will help.but I was thinking it possible that your 3pt control had been set low. I can't wait to see what people say who actually know their stuff. Each control should have a screw adjustment I'm thinkin'.

The tractor seems to actually jump with the slightest movement of the control. I found that with too much pressure adjusted in, the lift was violent and jerky. I'm sure most of the forum members would know that figure. I'm told the new tractors have smaller cylinder diameter but produce a lot of pressure. Old units like mine were good for 2 or 3,000psi and large diameter cylinders. If you don't already have a gauge in the line, put one in. On the next small lift the entire front axle came off! Soooo, adjust for REASONABLE pressure and the problem may be solved. Suddenly the load shifted and the tractor slowly rolled over to the right - ALL THE WAY! While it was on it's side I took the opportunity to service things on the underside etc. I increased pressure some more, I was so impressed, and didn't bother to climb aboard.just lifted away. I was so impressed I chained a heavy load into the bucket and it lifted it instantly. But, when I began to adjust the screw needle on the controls, pressure jumped dramatically and lift increased the same. I built my tractor AND hydraulics from used components and found it to be low on power. I'm sure that I am the least informed about your hydraulics.but, since nobody has responded, here goes.
