Are you aware that tractor uses a tandem hydraulic pump? One section powers the PS and the other the implements. Sold as a unit for $1900. Would you care to share your reason for wanting to replace the PS pump? Dan

I charged $100 including the wipers to make these two nuts. You probably dont want to know what I would charge for those rod ends.... Dan

You dont seem to be grasping the mechanical operation of the draft control valve. The M (mechanism) section of the manual has a pretty good description of how the valve operates. Reading and understanding that is a good starting point for inspecting the valve. You have taken the draft control...

Draft control valve = 3pt valve = assembly with multiple spools that iz bolted to top of hydrauluc cover. Dan

Where did you get that understanding? The schematic is abundantly clear. If nothing is going to filter my best guess is unloader is stuck closed and lowering valve is stuck open. At this point it seemes likely the problem is in the 3pt valve. Dab

The hydraulic schematic is clear on the oil flow. Oil from the power beyond port on the aux valve stack is fed firectly to the 3pt valve. When the 3pt valve is in neutral the unloader spool loops it straight back out to the filter and from there to tank. The system pressure relief valve is...

Forget the remotes - they work and you have not described anything to suggest they hsve anything to do with the 3pt problem. Like I said - do your best to verify operation of the unloader. If it does not operate oil is just going straight to tank and you will never get pressure at the cylinder...

I had time to read through the manual a little closer. The compensator (unloader) valve is a pressure differential shuttle that is shifted by pilot pressure. The pilot pressure is generated when the main lifting spool is shifted to the lift position and incoming oil from the pump is directed to...

According to the parts diagrams the armrest controller does not contain the ECU. The ECU is a metal (???) can bolted to the sheetmetal. Dan

Icwas under the impression you repIaced the control psnel not the ECU. I could be wrong but my impression is that filter is the only route to tank for the neutral circuit. If you think there is no oil going to the filter remove it and start the tractor. I suggest you keep your hand on the...

I popped for a copy if the WSM. I have looked at the hydrauluc circuit schematic and quickly skimmed the description of operation. Your remotes work so you have pressure and glow coming into the 3pt draft control valve. I have only skimmed the description but heres my rudimentary...

The 90 degree adapters are cheap. Why would you not use the WTC-18 cylinder? Dan
