Hello all,
I don't post much, but do come to snoop around abit. I really like this site, and I know Steve from another forum about snow plowing.
I have a 75XT skidsteer, with around 2700 hours on it. It came with the hydraulic quick connect for the bucket/forks/other tools. It has usually worked flawlessley until recently. It seems you need to cycle the tilt and lift hydraulics repeatedly while holding the coupler switch before the pins will move. It gets worse when it's cold - in the heated shop, it will work right away, but once it's outside, it runs into problems.
I have even taken the electromagnetic valve out and bench tested it - it works fine, so I know that the valve is being actuated. Somewhere, something is not allowing the pins to lift as they should.
Any ideas?
