I was wondering if you had anyone who could help me trouble shoot a problem, I have a MT2201D. The 3 Pt hitch will not raise. This is the scenario when it quit.

I was pulling a 48” Disc harrow, after about 2hrs it bounced a few times. I kept plowing. After I finished I tried to raise the plow and nothing happened. I ate lunch and did a few more things. About 1 hour later I checked the fluid level in the sub transmission and when I opened the cap fluid spewed out. I put the cap on and put the tractor on the trailer. When I got home I checked the fluid again and it was low. I also checked the hydraulic filter and it was plugged and had a hole in it,so I cleaned it and ordered another one from Valley Power. The FEL and PTO work fine. I did notice while I was plowing that the FEL control arm was hard to move and stuck in the position you put it in.I am out of fluid and will top it off when I get some. When I get the 3PT working I plan on flushing and changing the fluid.

Does anyone in your group have any ideas what my problem is?

Please let me know if you do.
