i recenty lost the down pressure on my B2650 tractor ( with 2782 snowblower attachment ) float position works fine and no visible leaks. The tractor lifts and holds the attachment no problem but will not put any pressure down. Any ideas what may be going on ?

I would just disconnect all the disconnect fittings and the reattach them and make sure they are well connected. Do it one at a time and focus on those that are for the up/down cylinder first, See if that fixes the problem (hopefully).

If the reply above doesn,t help find your problem, swap out the hoses in pairs were they connect to your tractor, and see if that gets the proper response. That procedure will help you determine if the issue is on the tractor side or the implement side.

Hard to conclude float "works" if there is no down pressure 🙄

This is real simple. Check hydraulic pressure at the "down" work port on the valve. My guess is its good and you have a cylinder problem of some sort.
