Three point and hydraulics

[beirutvet]

I was doing some clearing with a grapple, first major work of the season, and I noticed that my rear implement would not fully raise. It will go up and down but it will not raise more than about four inches. The grapple was fully functional. I'm getting ready to replace the fluid and filter in hopes that this will help. Any other suggestions?

Fluid and filter are not likely to help. This is commonly a sign the power beyond circuit is not (fully) connected. Some detail as to model of tractor and loader might get you a more specific suggestion.
