I have kubota LT245DT. While trying out a new box blade the tractor slowly lost hydraulic pressure. I soon lost any lifting ability on the 3 point and the front bucket would not raise up. Oil was full. What could be wrong?

First thing I would check is flow and pressure at the inlet port on the loader valve. You can do that with a clean 5 gallon bucket and a $15 pressure gauge.

Ok, will do that first. I am assuming at least a 3,000psi fluid gauge I’ll try to find a $15 one.
Thanks, will let you know how I get on.
3000 PSI will give you the best resolutiion
Disconnect the inlet hose at the loader valve and connect the gauge to the hose. Stsrt tractor, set engine RPM ti max, and read pressure.
