I have recently acquired a JD755 with FEL and 60" belly mower. Everything seems to work except that I have to use excessive rearward pressure on the valve lever to raise the FEL. Since the tractor is 10 years old, I wonder if the valve is beginning to malfunction. Can it be overhauled (new seals, o-rings, etc.)?

Bob, The first thing I would look at is the pin at the bottom of the lever that hooks into the linkage and will get worn and need replaced also check the linkage ....

Sorry for the delay in responding. I moved to a new house in the meantime and have been very busy. However I did finally remove the tractor seat and cover plates so I could get at the valve and linkage. Long story short, I sprayed the linkage and input shafts to the valve with lubricant and waddayaknow, it limbered up and now works fine, much to my relief. ....
