Thanks, thats where I have been trying to get it to float. Ground is still frozen today so will try again.

Thanks will try.

In my previous post I called the detent (indent). I cannot get my blade to float, the owners manual says to place the boom in the detent. Where is this position. I can get the arms to float only about 1/2". I need to push snow not dig a new driveway. I would assume that the detent would be all...

All that I have found on floating the work piece or arms is to put it in the indent. Exactly where is this, the operators manual does not explain this very well. Do you lower the arms as far as they will go or is it somewhere in between up and down. Need to move snow but cannot get the blade to...

Search for A & L Systems, they have block heaters that will fit almost anything at about half the price. 257B heater cost $79

I had a valve on the work piece, Dozer Blade, so I just used another switch, cut the wires to the solenoids and routed 12v directly to the solenoid and switch, the speed is controlled by the throttle valve on the work piece. I have not had any problems. Some of the newer machines do not have the...

Still no advances on the problem but I just thought of something. There is a switch that can be pushed to relieve the pressure on the Aux. quick connects. Does anyone know what solenoid it activates. It could be the switch or the solenoid stuck in the relief system.

If you didn't find your heater yet you might check here http://www.hotstart.com/in-block-heaters/

Thanks Jerry, I will post in heavy equipment, I checked all fuses and the relays. Interchanging the relays didn't reveal any problems. All of the fuses were good. I need the hyd. for a 6 way dozer blade, I can still use it but have to swing it manually and use a pin. Thanks for your suggestions

Not with this problem Jerry, the last time I contacted them about a problem all they would talk about was sending me a mechanic to check it out. My nearest dealer is well over a hundred miles and travel time applies. I must exhaust all other options before going to that extent. My Cat is for...

Well, except the Rabbit mode which would disable the auxiliary's

Thanks Jerry, but, I have already tried that. Its like a valve is closed or solenoid stuck. No pressure on either side. In fact no fluid at all. Everything else seems to operate well.

I cannot get the aux. hydraulics to work on my machine. No pressure at all, I have tried to get the continuous flow to work to no avail. I don't have any manuals except the Operation and maint. manual and I don't know which solenoid controls the aux. ie: the main spool assembly or the one in the...
