hello, I was using my b7100 today and seem to have lost my float on the loader. I was wondering if I have to replace it, what the hose fittings would be so I wouldn't have to use adapters. Thanks in advance

Float is the easiest part of the valve to repair.
I wouldn't think you will need to replace it.

It could be just frozen. ;)

Thanks for the reply, if I push the lever all the way forward, sometimes it will float the bucket but most times it will lift the front tires off the ground. You have to work the lever numerous times to get it to float

Yup, most likely you just have rusty/corroded balls, detent balls that is. Dissasemble the end cap, clean it out, fill will grease, and drill a small drain hole to allow moisture to escape and you will be good as new.
