Ok so this is my first posting on this forum and I have an issue with a loader on the Kubota we just picked up at our garage. The loader works great when moving the bucket alone but raising the assembly and lowering is where we have issues. The hydraulic control lever feels a little lax in its movement and sometimes when shifting the lever sideways a little when applying upward or downward pressure to raise or drop the assembly it will work better but when pushing straight up or down on the control lever it does not work very well if at all. There seems to be no "blockage" per se but more a flow problem with the control lever/valve unit. I have researched the parts and see that there is a reseal kit #70765-99500 which is for this unit from the Kubota website but not sure if this will resolve my issue. Any input you can provide would be a help. Thanx!:cool:
