Owned this tractor for a few years, never any issues. While bush-hogging a few days ago the TPH starting lifting slower, then stopped lifting at all. I can make it lift with no rear attachment, at full throttle only. The FEL works fine, so I think the hydraulic pressure is good. Hydraulic oil is fairly fresh, and level is good. This tractor has the solenoid activators with a manual overide lever, acts the same with using both. I have no manual or drawing to determine the lift cylinder construction.

) At this point it seems to be "blow by" in the lift cylinders, sound correct ?

) If so, does it have o-rings, seals, or other ?

) Where can said parts be found ?


Any help would be much appreciated.

Don C

Seems to stay and not creep down, but it has no weight on it.

Follow -up

Lift cylinder seal/o-ring replacement fixed the problem. Easy job. Thanks Sheaffer for the help !

Warning ..............

When setting the lift cylinder assembly back on transmission housing, be sure to align the PTO speed lever with shift mechanism ! I used a chain hoist to lower while aligning the lever. ....
