Hello and my apology I believe I am in the correct spot. I have a 1994 Case 1838 Uniloader (skidsteer) and the local AG on site repair guy replaced my starter on Friday. All good started as it should but when I went to move snow around my driveway about 60 feet into my forward journey it just stopped moving. Machine was not struggling at all it was heavy wet snow but moving it just fine. I stopped to answer a quick call and then continued to move another 10 feet and it just quit. Motor kept running fine but lost all hydraulic movement of arms, bucket and front and back motion. The machine seems to be in neutral (I know there is no such thing)
Little back history...the starter was going out and it was doing some lunging forward at start so I had to make sure I was ready for this. It then got to a point when I had to find like a sweet spot in the drive arm handles to get the starter to turn over. Then I lost that sweet spot but maybe it was nothing and the starter was just BAD. It was replaced worked great to START as it should. I mention this because before I had starter replaced I would move my drive levers back and for and so on several times when it WAS NOT running. Could this have messed anything up or caused my current problem of NO MOVEMENT of my machine. When machine is running I can move the drive levers and the motor or PUMP (?) seems to change the sound it is or was making. Again I am not a mechanic however I am very handy and have worked on all kinds of equipment, vehicles, mowers and such but I am at a loss. The local traveling AG repairman is swamped right now so if anyone can help or make suggestions I truly appreciate it. the machine has less than 1500 original hours on it, I am the second owner and have put on 1400 of the 1468 hours. Thank you..
