Your bypass valve may be the issue.....if the bypass valve is faulty, you will not build proper pressure in the hydraulic lift circuit. A bad bypass will open at a much lower pressure thus causing poor lift performance.

Tazza...correct each end cap secures an inner and outer return spring...there is also a retainer that sits at the end of the springs and rests against the aux spool. I did try to slowly rotate the aux spool to see if the material would move and allow the spool to come out...no luck. I was...

Looks like my aux spool is binding in the valve body... I removed both end caps and the spool will slide slightly side-to-side and then "snags" on something. Would anyone on the forum have a image of the control valve body showing the internal channels?

I may be close to the solution.... As I noted in my post, the Aux Spool will not come out of the main control valve body using little force...I do not want to apply too much force. I have not tried to remove the auxiliary spool from the other end of the hydraulic control valve body.... any ideas...

Great oracles of the SkidSteer Forum...I have a mystery....Looking for a little help as I am stumped..... I have a 1998 High-Flow 863 with an 811 backhoe attachment and the aux hydraulics will not lock. The momentary and lock LED's turn on and I noted that when the momentary LED was on only the...

Check to see if the fuse specification requires a “Time-Delay” fuse. These fuses are designed to handle current spikes. If you have a “Fast-Acting” fuse, these will open immediately upon experiencing a current rush.

Just a word of caution.... as a “newbie” you may want to be careful as to whom you lend out your services. We live in a litigious world and if you make a mistake, it can cost you dearly. You may want to set up a Limited Liability Company so if you do carve a hole in the side of someone's...

Thanks for the info! Al

Tazza, Thanks for the input. It is a model 743 with the newer control block (1989 model year). I think I may be able to get to the valve cap on the block under the cab seat without removing the block itself. Al

Hello all......... New to the site and can say I really find the forum very informative........great discussions and information. My issue is related to the lift arms drifting down slowly; the problem seems more noticeable without a load in the bucket. I lift the arms/bucket and go to neutral on...
