170 hydraulic levers

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I just got the 170 gas started after an engine swap. Bought it with a thrown rod. The 3 pt. lift arms went to the fully raised position and will not lower. Can any one tell me which levers do what? I believe the 3 in the front are for the remotes but their are only 2 sets of hoses that were used for the loader. The back 2 levers look like they should operate the the 3 pt. One lever is longer than the other. Are the lift ams raised by moving the levers foward or back?

	The one to far right is the 3pt the two shorter ones are the remotes. The rear two are position control and traction boost.

	You will probably find the linkage from the positioning lever is stuck and holding the valve in the stack in the lift position. Squirt kryoil on all the linkages under neath and make sure they all work and are loose an free to move.
