Kubota M8200 NARROW, with front end loader and rear three point hitch, PTO
Hello, I have a 2003 Kubota M8200 Narrow tractor and I've experienced a problem with my 3 pt hitch. I have a Brush Hog mower attached to the 3 pt hitch. About a month ago I mowed pastures for 9 days straight and didn't have a single problem with raising or lowering the mower. Yesterday I started the tractor to begin mowing the pastures again and at initial start up I could raise and lower the mower and the front loader with no problems. I mowed for maybe 5 minutes then raised the mower to make a turn around. No unusual noises, nothing out of the ordinary was felt or heard. When I made my turn around I went to lower the mower and nothing happened. I checked the speed knob under the seat, turning it to the right extreme and back to the left extreme then positioning it at about midway, still nothing happens when I try to lower the mower. I can see that everything is connected to the raise/lower lever, nothing is broke and I can't find any leaks around the tractor. I checked all fluid levels and they are at the required levels. The front loader operates fine. I'm at my wits end trying to figure this out. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
