One of our 6080’s has very poor hydraulics.   Steers perfectly fine.   Had it on the discbine this summer and it would struggle to lift it most of the time but not all the time.   Fluid level is good and filters are new.   3pt got lowered  this fall and couldn’t lift it back up till randomly one day it raised.  Put gauge on the remotes and tested after start up.  We’ve switched remotes around but in the end I think problem shows up with both.  When I find my notes on pressures I’ll update post.  

Found my notes:   Tested at start up from sitting a couple days 2200-2300 psi but after running a bit dropped down to a max of 1300.  


Where does a person go next?  Someone suggested too much play in the rod to the valve stack but doesn’t look bad.
