As of yesterday the lift on my Ford 1300 stopped lifting. It has worked fine until now. It will only lift right after the tractor is cranked and will not lift any implement. Any suggestions?

Check to see if theres a filter in the hyd system. If the filter is bad when you start the tractor it may work until pressure builds and re-clogs the filter. When the tractor sits overnight it may let the particulates fall away enough to get lift when restarted. Good luck. Scaper ....

Alot of tractors have a pickup screen inside the transmission/rear end housing. You have to drain the fluid. Then find where the suction line goes in housing. (The suction is the larger tube from hydraulic pump.) Unbolt the plate the tube is attached to & pull out screen & clean. It is fine mesh & may be plugged with moisture. If you need more info feel free to contact me. ....

I've checked and cleaned the screen, and changed the fluid. Neither of this worked. The lift will not even hold up its own weight unless the drop is set to its slowest level. Does this sound like a pump, or rings? ....
