Good golly miss molly..no up pressure on FEL

[arml]

So I go out today to gather up more logs to split...load the bucket go to lift....ooopps....no up on loader...was working fine the day before....fluid check good....wth....this is on my BX 2200 . Not overloaded. Just when the cold is starting to visit...I just don't need this right now.

Do you hear any noise when trying to lift?

First thing I would do is disconnect then reconnect the couplers for the loader.

I assume it lifted when you drove to the pickup point?

Does the bucket curl and dump?

I am not familiar with your model, but I check the loader lock out before I check the hoses. Someway somehow I have managed (more than once) to move my loader lock lever unintentionally and it gave me an OF moment. That’s easy to check.

First thing I'd do is make sure the 3-point hitch control lever is in the center (neutral) position...

Well, can't figure it....came out early this morning....walked across the field where the BX was resting....started it up, about 5 min latter I tried the bucket lift....yipe
up no problem, the logs still loaded on. Go figure. Not gonna complain...I'm moving on. Sigh of relief. Gonna do my happy dance with a nice bourbon...relax.

Again...

If you're not aware - the 3PH control does affect the FEL hydraulics. When you use the FEL, the 3PH control needs to be in the central (neutral) position.
