3pt won't raise

Anonymous-0 · Nov 25, 2012

Let the 3pt down and now it won't come back up dosen't do anything the remotes work fine. Would this be the valve under the seat or do I need to look some where else, everything else seems to working.

i'm assuming that you are referring to a 970?if you are i would check the linkage.should be able to take the platform up(where your feet rest when your sitting in the seat)and have someone move the lever.dads 970 has a tendancy to break the roll pin on the pin going into the housing.if that is it you'll have to remove the seat to get at it.i doubled the roll pin last time.anything farther you'll have to check with the real experts on here.

I had a 930 and 1030 for years Had that same problem but the hyds' wouldn't work either. It was the relief valve under the seat that would stick. I would pull the top off the valve pull the plunger out of the piston, clean and emery both and it was a fast fix, but not forever. It would happen maybe twice a year. It only takes a flake of carbon in the relief valve to stick it up. Don't know if the 970 is the same, probably not, the 970 has the power shift doesn't it. But it has to be a relief valve located some where.Good luck.

First remove plate under your feet in platform, looking to the rear you will see a spool protruding out the 3pt. valve with a spring over it. Now moving the 3pt. lever back and forth should cause the spool to go in and out. If it does not either the cable or the lever roll pin mentioned earlier is broken. If those items are OK and it still does not move there would be linkage disconnected in the draft control box, that is very uncommon. If everything is moving correctly the problem more than likely is a stuck spool in the control valve. Seat and its platform has to be removed to access the valve, cable, or roll pin. If valve has to be cleaned refer to a manual for its removal and disassembly. Remember durring removal, assembly and installation cleanliness is very important. There are other things inside the tractor that will cause the arms not to raise but these items mentioned are by far the most common. Rod.

I bought a 930 with cab from Salvage Yard Cheap ran great but no 3pt "too expensive to fix" The control that lies on the floor was in the wrong position. Moved it and it worked fine, apparently previous owner had kicked it back with his foot. could you prpoblem be this simple?
