Just a note regarding the husco hydraulic control. After a search i was able to find what i needed to repair the loader down/ float on the L4610 at work

Pulled the control off and removed the cap covering the detent assy.
One small ball rusted and shrunk in size, falling out and jamming the control.
I removed ball and set it aside, cleaned and greased with a teflon lube.
Reassembled and its now perfect. Sans one ball its no different than before.

It wouldnt always lower bucket- if it did it was slow. The rusted ball had floated down and would block travel of spool.

So thanks to previous threads i learned it was not a big deal to repair. Now i also know what parts are needed to repair if it happens again. Easy fix,worst part is the couple cups of oil spilled.
