Hello, I'm a new owner of a 1994 L3650 with 1000 hrs. Just a few minutes into operation the front bucket stopped responding quickly. The dump and scoop function work well, but the raising and lowering will only work super slow. I topped off the Hydro fluid. Ran the bucket up and down many times at the super slow pace with no difference in speed. When the bucket is on the ground it will not raise the tractor. If I add dump or tilt to up and down the action is fast. I do not see any leaks, or foam in the sight glass. I took it to a tractor shop and they advise the pressure to the valve is good. They took the valer apart and put it back together without any improvment. They advise changing the valve. The bucket when raised does not lower on its own over time(Not even an inch in an hour and a half).
So my questions are, How often does this happen to the valve system? Are there other possiblities to this problem? If a new valve is needed is the Husko for Kubota the best and only way to go?
