    580 SL Series 1 - Hydraulic hose replacement

    580 Super L series I - Front Loader Float issue

    HI, My CASE has recently developed a problem with the loader bucket lifting the front of the machine when the bucket is in the float position. It worked fine up until now. If I shift the machine into neutral it doesn't lift. Once I shift to forward the machine starts to lift. Any ideas ...
