loader won't go down

[richmondl245]

The loader on my kubota L245 will not drop. Either lever action only allows it to go up. I did run low on my hydraulic fluid, but once filled it still isn't behaving. Is it air in the system? If so how do I bleed the system.

Welcome,
Unplug the QD's (quick disconnects), wipe them off/out and re-seat them. 99% of the time this cures the "My FEL won't xxxx" problems. Be extra carful since it raised, I would block it up with some wood to hold it while you try what I suggested so it doesn't crash down.

Here's a recent thread with much the same problem: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16206
